Production

Development

On May 9, 2019, CBS renewed the series for a tenth season.[25] CBS announced its fall schedule on May 15, 2019, and it was revealed that the series would undergo a time slot change,[26] with the series being replaced by Magnum P.I. at its previous time slot, and the series now airing an hour earlier, holding the time slot formerly held by MacGyver which moved to mid-season.[27] When interviewed about possible story lines for the tenth season, executive producer Peter M. Lenkov stated, "We're playing it real, with the real things that happen in people's lives as time marches on".[28] CBS revealed its fall premiere dates on June 12, 2019, and announced that the season would premiere on September 27, 2019.[29] Series star Alex O'Loughlin wrote the first filmed episode of the season.[30] On February 14, 2020, it was announced that the season would conclude with a two-part season finale on April 3.[31] It was later revealed this would be the series finale. The decision was based on several factors, most notably O'Loughlin's recovery from on-set injuries and contracts that were set to end this season. CBS had hoped to continue the Danno character in a sequel or continuation, but the producers decided not to go with the idea.[32] As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic the NCAA announced that March Madness 2020 would be cancelled.[33] Following this announcement, on March 13, 2020, CBS announced that with the timeslot being opened up the series finale would be split into two parts, the first part airing on March 27, with the second part airing on April 3, but keeping the series' regular timeslot.[34]

On September 27, 2019, Jorge Garcia, who had played Jerry Ortega since the fourth season, left the series following the season premiere to focus on other projects; in the show, after recovering from being shot in the ninth season finale, Jerry leaves the task force to focus on writing a book. Garcia and producer Peter Lenkov both confirmed the former's exit, but assured that the door would be open for Jerry to later return as a guest star.[44] Garcia is set to cross-over onto one of Lenkov's other series MacGyver during its fifth season portraying Jerry Ortega as a guest star.[45][46] MacGyver previously crossed-over with Hawaii Five-0 in their first and seventh seasons, respectively.[47]

On February 14, 2020, it was revealed that Lance Gross would have a major guest role for the two-part season finale with the possibility for Gross to become a series regular pending renewal of an eleventh season.[48] However, on February 28, 2020, it was announced that the series would end after the tenth season.[32] Chuck Norris made a cameo appearance in the season's penultimate episode as Lee Phillips, a retired sergeant major who is helping his mentee; Lincoln Cole.[49] Former main cast member Michelle Borth returned in the final moments of the series finale as Catherine Rollins; however, her appearance was not mentioned in any press releases put out prior to the episodes airing.[50] To avoid any spoiler she was also not included in the opening guest star credits. Instead, she appeared in the closing credits within her own caption.
