CBS Cancels Watson and DMV: The Eye Network Blindside
It seems the "Eye Network" just looked the other way. In a Friday afternoon news dump that has left fans of procedural-heavy schedules slightly more hydrated from all the tears, CBS has officially canceled both Watson and DMV . While the network was busy handing out renewals like candy to 16 other programs, including Tracker , Matlock , and even the Yellowstone spin-off Marshals , these two shows found themselves at the end of a very short road.

DMV Season 1 Episode 12 Recap: Anna Camp Steals the Show
In Season 1, Episode 12, titled "The Fourth Wheel," we are treated to a guest appearance that is as perfectly timed as a green light when you’re running late.

DMV Season 1 Episode 11 Recap: Renee Montgomery Humbles Vic

DMV Season 1 Episode 9 Recap: “The Next Window” Does Colette Finally Catch Noa's Eye
The holidays arrive at the East Hollywood DMV, but don’t expect cheer, goodwill, or even working tinsel. DMV Season 1 Episode 9, “The Next Window,” drops the crew into festive mayhem that includes a long road trip, a not-quite date, a toppled Christmas tree and a guest appearance from Leslie Jones.

Recap: DMV Season 1 Episode 8 Turns Holiday Sweaters Into Workplace Warfare
Holiday cheer hasn’t officially hit DMV yet, but Episode 8, “Splash Mountain,” works as the chaotic prelude. The show leans into its signature mix of workplace pettiness, accidental emotional breakthroughs and deadpan absurdity. This time sparked by something as harmless (and hideous) as matching holiday sweaters. It’s a deceptively silly setup that ends up delivering one of the most honest, surprisingly heartfelt episodes of the season. The premise kicks off when Barb assem

DMV Season 1 Episode 7 Recap: Randall Park Drops Into DMV
After six straight episodes of surprisingly consistent laughs, DMV hits its first real speed bump with “There Is No I in DMV.” Even with the much-promoted guest appearance from Randall Park as Beau, the golden-boy manager of the North Hollywood branch, this episode doesn’t land with the comedic punch the show has delivered so far. Randall Park’s Guest Spot: Fine, But Not Funny Randall Park is an actor I usually enjoy, but his appearance here feels… just fine. He plays Beau

DMV Season 1 Episode 6 Blindspot Recap: Is Noa Warming Up to Colette
In DMV Season 1 Episode 6, titled “Blindspot,” the mundane world of motor vehicle bureaucracy collides with the hilariously absurd as Colette tries to bend reality to win over Noa. What unfolds is equal parts cringe comedy and awkward romantic tension, leaving me laughing, groaning, and questioning if anyone should ever root for Colette’s antics.

DMV Season 1 Episode 3 “Easy Pass” Review: Colette Flunks at Love While Noa Proves He’s No Angel
If DMV were a real workplace, you’d probably fail your test just for showing up late. Thankfully, the new NBC workplace comedy keeps passing our expectations instead. Episode 3, “Easy Pass,” continues the show’s streak of sharp, awkwardly relatable humor while diving deeper into its messy characters, specifically, our favorite overly accommodating driving tester, Colette.
