AFTER a holiday hiatus, Bull has returned to CBS to continue season six.
But during last night’s episode (January 6, 2021), fan speculation that much loved character Marissa was leaving the hit series continued to grow.
Is Marissa leaving Bull?
During episode 10, fans once again became concerned that Marissa would be leaving the show.
It was after she spent the whole episode argueing with leading man Bull.
Things got so bad that she actually went to his wife to talk to her about how she could improve her relationship with him.
This led fans to take to Twitter with concern that the tension between Marissa and Bull could be a sign the character is heading for an exit from the series.
But before you start to worry, there is nothing from CBS to suggest that she is leaving the show in the near future.
In fact, executives of the show, including Kathryn Price, have openly discussed the character’s longevity on the show, and the fact she is pivotal to the rest of season 6.
Who is Marissa Morgan in Bull?
Bull is inspired by the exploits of real-life trial science expert Dr. Phil McGraw.

In addition to the triple-PhD-equipped Bull, the elite TAC team also includes neurolinguist Marissa Morgan, who is his second in command.
As the team member responsible for monitoring jury behavior and reactions in real-time, Marissa is perhaps the team’s most critical frontline member.
