Paramount+ Drops Tony & Ziva Amidst Rising Popularity
27 Feb
Summary
- Tony & Ziva gained significant global streaming success after its cancellation.
- The show recently topped charts in France and gained traction on iTunes.
- Fans launched a "Save Tony & Ziva" campaign, even securing a billboard.
The cancellation of "Tony & Ziva" by Paramount+ after a single season has become more poignant due to its recent surge in streaming popularity. Despite the streamer's smaller subscriber base compared to giants like Netflix or HBO Max, the show has found a strong global audience. Starting in 2026, "Tony & Ziva" recently achieved the number one spot on the French streamer M6+ and has seen rising numbers on iTunes in regions including Hungary and the Czech Republic, maintaining Top 10 rankings in several countries.
This post-cancellation success, occurring after the Season 1 finale aired in late 2025, has been met with considerable fan outcry. A "Save Tony & Ziva" campaign emerged, with fans investing their own money and even securing a billboard advertisement. Actor Michael Weatherly acknowledged the fan efforts, indicating a continued desire for the show. The situation highlights a debate about whether the reunion series received the same opportunities as other "NCIS" franchise entries, particularly given the established audience and existing broadcast platforms for related shows.
