US TV shows delay filming as Covid-19 cases surge in Los Angeles

Military drama 'Seal Team' extends its holiday hiatus by one week due to 'catastrophic surge' in cases.

A number of CBS Studios productions – including NCIS, NCIS: Los Angeles, Seal Team, Why Women Kill and Diary Of A Future President – are extending their holiday hiatus by one week amid the spiking COVID-19 surge in Los Angeles County, Variety has learned.

Those productions will resume on Jan 11. Other CBS Studios shows are scheduled to get back into gear later in January, according to a source familiar with the matter.
