CBS’ decision cut Numb3rs‘ episode count from 22 to 16 is the clearest sign yet that the CBS procedural’s current sixth season will likely be its last. That’s the bad news. The good news is that the network gave producers enough notice to plan for a possible series finale.
“We will be doing a 16th episode that wraps up storylines and answers questions,” reveals the show’s co-creator Cheryl Heuton. “It will be designed to stand as a finale, but it won’t create story situations that would hamper us if the network should decide to order more episodes.”
Heuton says she’s confident the episode “will give fans what they’ve been waiting for… We’re looking to feature all our characters and give good moments to every member of the cast.”
Bottom line: We won’t have another Las Vegas-type debacle on our hands.
Thoughts? What and/or who would you like to see in a Numb3rs series finale? Sound off below!
Are “Numbers‘” days numbered?
CBS has opted to cut back the order for the veteran crime procedural from 22 to 16 episodes.
Friday nights have taken a big ratings hit this fall, and “Numbers,” now in its sixth season, has been no exception. Last week, the drama starring Rob Morrow and David Krumholtz averaged a 1.7 rating/6 share among adults 18-49 and 7.9 million viewers overall.
Additionally, CBS has a couple of drama series on tap for midseason, including another crime procedural, Canadian co-production “Flashpoint,” which has performed well on Fridays.
As for “Numbers’ ” future, a rep for CBS said no decision has been made.
But with the series, from sibling CBS TV Studios, already secured a syndication run, continuing it at the high cost associated with a long-running drama is considered unlikely.

Charlie meets his mathematical equivalent when LOTTERY AGENT JANE assists in the investigation into a complex scam that involves thefts of unsold lottery tickets
LOTTERY AGENT JANE:- Early to mid 30s, eccentric and engaged, she is a “lottery cop,” an expert mathematician, employed by the California State Lottery to spot frauds. A fast talking genius who’s (maybe) just as bright as Charlie Eppes, excellent at calculating probabilities, she works closely with Charlie in trying to figure out the mathematical scam that inspired a series of armed robberies of unscratched lottery tickets. Jane winds up accused of having planned the crimes herself — and a dubious (and gallant) Charlie, possibly spotting his opposite number in romance as well as in calculations, double-checks everyone else’s work and comes up with a different bottom line — and a different suspect…GUEST STAR (10) PLEASE SUBMIT ALL ETHNICITIES
BOYD:- 40-52, an affable man in a business suit, with a business-casual attitude, Boyd is the security supervisor for the California Lottery Commission, and he’s an expert on the lottery and all its works. The boss of “lottery cop” Jane, Boyd has no math expertise, and appears to be a little out of his depth when Jane and Charlie suss out the real scheme that underpins the thefts of unscratched lottery tickets. In fact, Boyd is the inside man, and he plants evidence that implicates Jane Hackett as the mastermind behind the crimes — and it all works swell until mastermind Charlie Eppes steps in, determined to find the real criminals…GUEST STAR (6) PLEASE SUBMIT ALL ETHNICITIES
SCOTT / ROBBER TWO:- 40-45 years old, a motivational speaker type, Scott used to be a truck salesman — but he won $15 million in the lottery, blew it all, and now hosts a support group for fellow lottery winners who need help managing their nouveaux riches. Apparently a family man who’s earnestly trying to help others, Scott in fact is badly in debt and needs a fresh influx of cash. He’s been one of the four robbers who have been hitting local convenience stores and stealing unscratched lottery tickets at gunpoint. When his son Zack is arrested, a suddenly desperate Scott wastes no time in offering the FBI anything they want if they’ll drop the charges against his boy…GUEST STAR (14)
ZACK:- 16 years old, Zack is a smart kid with a smart mouth; he thinks he’s funny but too many of his jokes land flat. The son of a widower, Zack doesn’t have a woman in the house to adjust his attitude, and he’s got a bracing contempt for his father and anyone else who has ever bought a lottery ticket. Having boosted the stash of winning scratchers his dad stole at gunpoint, Zack tries to cash one in, and when he’s arrested, he makes it clear that this is an intervention, intended to stop his father’s foolhardy criminal career in its tracks…GUEST STAR (15)
SARA:- 38 years old, in a business suit and carrying a briefcase, Sara is a financial advisor who specializes in working with lottery winners to protect their finances from predators and from their own folly. Bright, a motivated businesswoman, Sara tells Liz a few things about the late John (one of her clients), but refuses to talk further without a subpoena. Later, Sara is fingered by Boyd as the mathematical mastermind behind the scheme to track down a winning ticket, and she’s busted in the act…GUEST STAR (17)
ROBBER THREE:- 32-42, Another former lottery winner, he’s the third member of the original quartet of armed robbers, and he’s busted in the act of robbing yet another convenience store…3 lines, 2 scenes (36) PLEASE SUBMIT ALL ETHNICITIES
ROBBER FOUR:- 32-42, another former lottery winner, he’s the fourth member of the original quartet of armed robbers, and he’s busted in the act of robbing yet another convenience store…2 lines, 2 scenes (36) PLEASE SUBMIT ALL ETHNICITIES
PUNK TEEN:- Female, this punk teen at 16 or 17 roams through the aisles of a convenience store, grousing while trying to shoplift an energy drink. She’s pissed off when the clerk busts her…CO-STAR (1) PLEASE SUBMIT ALL ETHNICITIES
CLERK #1:- 45-60, male, a sharp-eyed clerk at a mini-mart, he catches a teenager shoplifting an energy drink, and comes up shooting when four armed robbers try to boost his stash of lottery tickets. He misses one and shotguns another to death…CO-STAR (1) PLEASE SUBMIT ALL ETHNICITIES
CLERK #2:- Early to late 30s, a male or female clerk at a strip mall, he or she fingers a teenager in a hoodie as the person of suspicion who’s trying to sell one of the stolen scratchers…CO-STAR (28) PLEASE SUBMIT ALL ETHNICITIES
LAWYER:- Mid 30s to mid 40s, this female attorney for Scott Underwood, she is very unhappy when the FBI agents place Zack and Scott in the same interview room, and clearly are hoping for a guilty admission from one or both of them…CO-STAR (34) PLEASE SUBMIT ALL ETHNICITIES
CLERK #3:- Early 30s to mid 40s, a male clerk at a Gas-N-Go station, he sells Sara Lewis a fistful of Millionaire Madness scratch-offs…CO-STAR (46) PLEASE SUBMIT ALL ETHNICITIES
