After 14 seasons,Foreign Archives one of CBS' longest-running shows is coming to an end.The current season will be the last for NCIS: Los Angeles, which is a spinoff of the original NCIS. According to Deadline, the cast and crew were informed on Friday about the cancelation.

The network crime procedural stars Chris O’Donnell, LL Cool J, Linda Hunt, Daniela Ruah, Eric Christian Olsen, Medalion Rahimi, Caleb Castille, and Gerald McRaney as agents with Los Angeles' NCIS division, charged with detaining criminals who pose a threat to the nation's security. Created by Shane Brennan has been on the air since 2009.

As Deadline notes, it's not a huge surprise given the show's expensive budget and networks looking to tighten the purse strings as of late. That said, NCIS: Los Angeleshas had consistently strong ratings during its run and is the top show in its time slot, averaging around 6 million viewers. So while it is coming to an end, a show with 14 seasons is anything but a failure.
