Warner Bros. Domestic Television Distribution has renewed off-CBS drama Cold Case for another two years on the CBS Television stations in 16 markets, WBDTD said Tuesday, taking the show through the 2012-13 season. Those markets include the top three: WCBS New York, KCBS Los Angeles and WBBM Chicago.

 This season, Cold Case is averaging a 1.7 live plus same day household rating, according to Nielsen, ranking it eighth among the weekend off-net hours. The highest rated show in the genre is CBS Television Distribution's CSI: New York at a 3.2.

 On cable, Cold Case airs on TNT.

 The show, starring Kathryn Morris as Detective Lily Rush, highlights the Philadelphia Homicide Squad and its efforts to solve old cases considered unsolvable. Cold Case is in its seventh season on CBS, airing Sundays at 9 p.m. It's produced by Jerry Bruckheimer Television in association with CBS Television Studios and Warner Bros. Television. Bruckheimer, Jonathan Littman, Meredith Stiehm, Jennifer Johnson and Greg Plageman are executive producers; Stiehm created the show.

• Is this for Reruns, or new episodes? I've seen all the reruns because I watch them all week on TNT and on weekends on the CW. I'm not ready for the show to end after it's 7th season. It's the most unique show, and it's awesome.
