So Help Me Todd, continues with its second season, delivering a blend of humour and intriguing cases. In “P.I.’s Wide Shut,” airing on Thursday May 2 on CBS, the show explores a compelling legal battle and a lighthearted office prank war between Todd and Lyle.
It’s another case (and there’s not many left given the cancellation) for mother-son duo of Margaret and Todd, who work together at Margaret’s law firm. While Margaret, a successful attorney, assists Susan in seeking justice for a tennis coach accused of drugging a teen athlete, Todd and Lyle engage in a series of entertaining pranks at the office.
The cast includes Marcia Gay Harden as Margaret, Skylar Astin as Todd, Tristen J. Winger as Lyle, and Inga Schlingmann as Susan.
With the show’s recent cancellation, fans are campaigning for its renewal, highlighting its entertainment value and family-oriented appeal. The show averaged 6.2 million total viewers and a 0.5 demo rating, matching its freshman numbers. While it found an audience, the competitive nature of the industry and the need to make tough calls led to its cancellation.
The season finale of So Help Me Todd will leave viewers with a cliffhanger, and there are currently no plans for an on-screen resolution.
So Help Me Todd airs on CBS at 9:00 pm on Thursday, May 2, 2024, and is available for streaming on Paramount+.
