2024–25 United States network television schedule

Television schedule for the fall of 2024 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 2024–25 network television schedule for the five major English-language commercial broadcast networks in the United States covers the prime time hours from September 2024 to August 2025. The schedule is followed by a list per network of returning series, new series, and series canceled after the 2023–24 television season.

CBS was the first to announce its initial fall schedule on May 2, 2024 via press release (without an upfront presentation),[1] followed by NBC on May 10 (with its upfront presentation at 10:30 a.m. Eastern Time on May 13),[2] Fox on May 13 (with its upfront presentation at 4 p.m. that day),[3] ABC on May 14 (with its upfront presentation at 4 p.m. that day),[4] and The CW on May 16 (without an upfront presentation).[5][6]

PBS is not included, as member television stations have local flexibility over most of their schedule and broadcast times for network shows may vary. MyNetworkTV is also not included since its schedule features syndicated reruns.

Each of the 30 highest-rated shows released in May 2025 is listed with their ranks and ratings as determined by Nielsen Media Research.[7]

New series to broadcast television are highlighted in bold. Repeat airings or same-day rebroadcasts are indicated by (R).

All times are U.S. Eastern and Pacific Time (except for some live sports or events). Subtract one hour for Central, Mountain, Alaska, and Hawaii–Aleutian times.

All sporting events air live in all time zones in U.S. Eastern time, with local and/or late night programming scheduled by affiliates after game completion.

During the NFL preseason and MLB regular season, some affiliates may not air their respective primetime programming due to their local NFL and/or MLB team games and may choose to put its network's programming on a sister channel to air live, delay the program to air later on the network or preempt the shows entirely.
