It may be hard to believe, but we’re already reaching fall finales, meaning your favorite shows will be briefly going on hiatus, some for just a few weeks and some a bit longer. But it also means midseason is here, with several favorites returning with new seasons and new series premiering.
ABC was the first broadcast network to release its midseason schedule, featuring the returns of Will Trent and The Rookie after last spring’s finales on January 6. The schedule also sets High Potential, 9-1-1, Grey’s Anatomy, and other series’ midseason premieres early on in January. American Idol is back with a new season, moving to Mondays, while the next Bachelorette lead, Taylor Frankie Paul, will be looking for love on Sundays now, beginning in March.
The other broadcast networks have yet to announce their premiere dates, but we do know shows that will be joining each’s schedule. CBS will add CIA and Y: Marshals, Fox has Best Medicine and Memory of a Killer, and NBC has The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins.
Check out the full list of midseason premiere and return dates for the broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, Fox, and NBC) below. And keep checking back, as this will be updated as more are announced.
