CBS Orders Harriet Dyer Comedy ‘DMV’ and Matthew Gray Gubler Drama ‘Einstein’ for 2025-2026 Season

CBS is ordering two more series for the 2025-2026 broadcast season. “DMV,” a comedy starring Harriet Dyer, and “Einstein,” a drama starring Matthew Gray Gubler, are moving forward at the network.

These come in addition to “CIA,” a new series set in the “FBI” universe that the network announced earlier on Tuesday.

Dyer will star in “DMV” as Colette, a driving examiner with a huge heart who is adept at calming nervous drivers. But her intelligence and self-awareness also hides a woman who is neurotic, bad with boundaries and a constant people pleaser. She will star in the comedy alongside Tim Meadows as Gregg, a sardonic and defeated instructor who used to be a high school English teacher; Molly Kearney as Barbara, the optimistic boss of the branch who considers herself to be one of the gang though no one else does; and Alex Tarrant as Noa, the charismatic golden boy who believes he’s above his DMV job. The comedy also stars Tony Cavalero as the lovable scumbag Vic and Gigi Zumbado as the scrappy and sassy , drivers license photo taker Ceci.

“DMV” is based on award winning author Katherine Heiny’s short story. “Our quirky and lovable characters are making minimum wage, doing a thankless job where customers are annoyed before they even walk in the door. Good thing they have each other,” a logline for the series reads.

The series will be a single-cam workplace comedy that comes from CBS Studios. Dana Klein executive produces the series alongside Aaron Kaplan, Wendi Trilling and Robyn Meisinger. Trent O’Donnell also executive produces the comedy and will direct its pilot.
