NBC    Fall TV Look 2025   Upfronts 

         NBC gained the rights to the National Basketball Association, for the first time since they lost their rights to Disney/ESPN in 2002.  The network has decided to make one of their own nights, instead of a cable network, to be NBA night.  In other words , Tuesday night.  Meaning that NBC had to clear out some shows to make room, as the network still has Sunday Night Football as well.  

              The two comedies that were left  and just premiered in the 2024-25 season will be back in November. "St. Denis Medical" and "Happy's Place" will be used to launch two new comedies.  NBC will be cutting the voice down to 1 hour, from November on Mondays giving them a comedy hour  competing against CBS' comedy hour on Mondays with "St. Denis Medical" and a new a not yet named comedy after it.   

         "Brilliant Minds" was renewed" and will fill out the Monday line up.  Tuesdays, before Basketball starts in October,  will be 2 hours of the Voice  and a new show hosted by Jimmy Fallon "On Brand with Jimmy Fallon"  

  The "Chicago" shows hold their Wednesday night in place.  Law and Order and SVU will still have Thursday, with "The Hunting Party" taking the final slot. 

         Fridays. will start with "On Brand with Jimmy Fallon" which will be on two nights until October, then one night.   "Dateline NBC" will be 2 hours after.  

            In  November "Happy's Place" returns with a new comedy series following it.

This post was last updated on June 6  6:30pm MT 

        The decisions are being made about the fates of many different TV series.  This is our annual list that will be updated frequently as news about different broadcast networks shows comes in and what their status is for the next season.  This list primarily focuses on scripted series as those tend to get their announcements done in due time  before the May upfronts.  Though other non-scripted series due end up in the list  eg: 60 Minutes, since they are centerpieces of a network's line up. I will include a list of unscripted series too, but in some cases they are either renewed at various times. summer series also aren't part of the main lists as that is out of the main seasonal part of the year.

NBC Announces Fall Premiere Dates and Adjustments to their fall line up

NBC Fall TV Look 2023 

        NBC has released their fall premiere dates, while the network did seem to have some confidence in the writers' strike ending  in time for them to be able to tape some more episodes, there has been that wrench in the plans.   

            NBC will be putting Magnum P.I.  and Canadian program Transplant into their line up to fill the gaps.  The Three Chicago series will not be airing new episodes, and will be condended to one hour for reruns on Wednesdays. Magnum P.I will be airing along with Quantum Leap  on Wednesday nights.   

            The Law and Order series will also be in reruns and condensed to the 8pm ET hour on Thursdays , Transplant  and Dateline  will be plugging the holes on Thursday at 9 and 10pm ET. 

            The comedies planned for Tuesday of Night Court and Extended Family are being held off.  New dramas The Irrational and Found are launching into the schedule in fall. They were both part of the original line up. With the latter moving to Tuesday Nights.  The Voice is going to be 2 hours on Tuesday, with the first hour being a recap of Monday's show. 

        NBCs line up is still less reliant on reruns and reality than what FOX, CBS, and ABC had to do. 

    Here are the premiere dates  all times ET/PT  , unless otherwise noted

Fall TV 2023: NBC

NBC Fall TV Look 2023 Upfronts

         NBC has released it's fall line up, a tick earlier than normal. Comedy is back on the table at the start of the season.  The hit revival of  Night Court will be back on Tuesdays along with a new series the return of Jon Cryer to network TV with Extended Family.  Tuesday also gets Quantum Leap .  Another interesting change is that the second night of Dick Wolf programming  where the Law & Order series were running has been cut to 2 hours with new drama Found taking the slot that was held by Law & Order: Organized Crime  on Thursday nights.  That program will be back in mid season.  Lopez vs. Lopez  has been renewed but status (as of this writing) for Young Rock hasn't been given yet. 

            The Voice keeps its normal Monday slot, with a new drama getting its AGT boost that being The Irrational .  The Chicago night continues on Wednesdays. Fridays is light fare with The Wall and Dateline NBC taking up the night. 

        Thanks to new college football rights, NBC will fill Saturday Night with Big Ten Football from 7pm ET/4PT and that or Notre Dame Football.  Sundays , of course, belong to NFL Sunday Night Football. 

           NBC feels secure in their line up coming to plan on time even with the writers' strike due to renewing shows early to get something done before the strike.   

             For mid season,  La Brea will be back, which was moved from starting in regular season to being a mid season replacement show. The drama was renewed for  6-episode season. Magnum P.I which NBC saved from cancelation, will have its 2nd half of its 5th season in midseason. 

                Also, the second season of Password  which is effected by the writers' strike is coming in the mid season.  Deal or No Deal is back on NBC, but with a twist , another America's Got Talent spin-off.  The Americas , a natural history series will also be airing. Also Canadian Drama , Transplant, is back in the line up,
