FALL TV 2023: ABC

ABC Fall TV Look 2023 Upfronts

    ABC has released their fall line up. Unlike CBS, which sent out a line up of confidence that the writers' strike will be resolved soon, and NBC which seems more willing to have some delays effect mid season as they seem to have stuff secured for the fall, ABC is going for heavy unscripted line up. 

            All it's scripted programming, save for reruns of Abbott Elementary is off the line up for the fall.  "Dancing with the Stars" has moved back from Disney Plus to the network, they've also added a new "Bachelor" series called "The Golden Bachelor" think "The Bachelor" but with older people.  

             Series like "Abbott Elementary", "The Connors", "The Good Doctor", "Grey's Anatomy" , "Not Dead Yet", "High Potential", "The Rookie", "Station 19",  and "Will Trent"  will be announced at a later date, again depending on the writers' strike length.   Shows like "The Rookie: Feds" and "Home Economics" are still TBD on if they will be renewed or not.

THE GOLDEN BACHELOR
After more than 20 years of fostering young love on “The Bachelor,” “The Bachelorette” and “Bachelor in Paradise,” “The Golden Bachelor” showcases a whole new kind of love story – one for the golden years. On this all-new unscripted series, one hopeless romantic is given a second chance at love in the search for a partner with whom to share the sunset years of life. The women arriving at the mansion have a lifetime of experience, living through love, loss and laughter, hoping for a spark that ignites a future full of endless possibilities. In the end, will our Golden man turn the page to start a new chapter with the woman of his dreams?

“The Golden Bachelor” is produced by Warner Bros. Unscripted Television in association with Warner Horizon.
