NBC Cancels Brilliant Minds and Stumble Ahead of Upfronts, Promising Clear Endings

NBC canceled sophomore medical drama Brilliant Minds and freshman comedy Stumble ahead of its 2026 upfronts, saying a tight schedule and the need to make room for future hits forced the moves despite the network valuing the shows and aiming to give fans a proper ending; Brilliant Minds posted steep declines and was pulled from the schedule earlier with six episodes left, while Stumble struggled in a Friday single-camera slot behind Happy’s Place, prompting NBC to realign development and order new pilots—Newlyweds (multicam) and Sunset P.I. (single-camera)—to better pair future offerings with corresponding formats.

NBC Cancels Two Low-Rated Series Ahead of Upfronts

NBC has canceled two underperforming scripted series: the medical drama Brilliant Minds, which will end after two seasons with summer finales starting May 27, and the mockumentary Stumble, which ends after one season with its final episode airing in March. Both shows ranked among NBC’s lowest viewers this season, and NBC is moving toward its upfront presentation with three more dramas waiting for renewal, a first-year comedy, and eight pilots in contention for 2026–27.

NBC Axes Brilliant Minds and Stumble After Soft Viewership

NBC has canceled two of its series: the medical drama Brilliant Minds after two seasons and the mockumentary Stumble after one season. Brilliant Minds, based on Oliver Sacks’s books, stars Zachary Quinto as neurologist Dr. Oliver Wolf and followed medical mysteries of the mind; Season 2 began in September 2025 with 14 episodes before NBC pulled it from the schedule in February, with the remaining six episodes set to premiere May 27. Stumble, set in the world of junior-college cheerleading, debuted in November and aired its finale in March; critics generally liked it, but it failed to attract a large audience. NBC is moving forward with pilots for the 2026-27 season while some shows remain on the bubble and others await announcements.
