B Positive has been picked up for a full season at CBS. The show will now have a full season of 18 episodes.

The news comes after the fifth episode aired on December 17. The show, which debuted on November 5, will now run through the entire 2020-2021 broadcast season, with the sixth episode scheduled to air on January 7.

B Positive, created by Marco Pennette, follows Drew (played by Thomas Middleditch), a therapist and a divorced dad who discovers that he is in need of a kidney transplant. He runs into Gina (Annaleigh Ashford), a woman from his past, who volunteers to donate her kidneys.

The series is said to be inspired by Pennette's real-life experience as a transplant recipient.

Pennette also executively produces the series alongside Chuck Lorre. Warner Bros Television produces the series in association with Chuck Lorre Productions.
