Get your calendars ready, as CBS has announced its dates for the fall schedule. Where and when will your show premiere?
On Monday, NBC became the second broadcasting network, following CBS's announcement last week, to disclose its schedule for the Fall television season. Which shows are experiencing changes, where will they be positioned, and which will be postponed until midseason? Let us proceed with the details.
SWAT is returning to its Friday leadoff spot, where it will kick off the new firefighter drama, Fire Country (starring SEAL Team's Max Thieriot). NCIS: Los Angeles will, in turn, move an hour later on Sundays, which will make way for the new cop drama, East New York.
The newest reality series, The Real Love Boat, will close out Wednesday night, anchored by the new seasons of Survivor and The Amazing Race.
And Thursdays look to be a bit different, with only two Thursday sitcoms now, Young Sheldon and Ghosts (moving a half-hour earlier), which will kick off into the freshman dramedy So Help Me Todd (Starring Marcia Gay Harden and Skylar Astin). While CSI: Vegas' second season will close out the night.
Here's a look at the schedule:
MONDAY:
8/7c The Neighborhood
8:30/7:30c Bob Hearts Abishola

CBS made some changes and added more new shows to its fall schedule compared to NBC (two new shows) and ABC (three new shows). CBS has gone back to two comedies and two dramas for their Thursday night lineup (something they haven't done since the 2012-2013 season).
Fire Country and East New York look promising from the trailers, but I still have some doubts about So Help Me Todd.
The schedule looks solid, and I look forward to the new seasons of CBS' Tuesday night and Thursday night. I wonder if they will kick off SEAL Team's new season by airing on CBS for a couple of weeks and airing the rest on Paramount+ because I thought that was a brilliant move to kick off the newly rebranded streaming service.

On Monday, NBC released their 2022 fall schedule as May Upfronts begin this week. The 2021-2022 top-rated freshman series, La Brea, will take over the Tuesdays at 9pm timeslot (which has been the home of This Is Us for the past six years).
The most significant buzz for any new NBC series, the Quantum Leap reboot starring Raymond Lee, has landed the network's most prominent real estate, Mondays at 10/9c leading out of The Voice. While the Night Court revival, which stars John Larroquette and Big Bang Theory alum Melissa Rauch, and has been ordered to series back in September, won't make its debut until midseason.
Meanwhile, Young Rock will be moving to Fridays for its third season, starting in Movember, where it will be paired with the new George Lopez sitcom, Lopez vs. Lopez. This will make The Blacklist's 10th season premiere held back to midseason.
Here's a look at the schedule:

8/7c The Voice
10/9c Quantum Leap
TUESDAY

While NBC has made some changes, mainly bringing back comedy in late fall. But I do wish that network could have renewed Mr. Mayor.
We'll see how La Brea can be when moving to Tuesdays and wonder if it will keep close to what the ratings would be in the first season.
And what the heck happened with some of the competition shows like AGT Extreme or Family Game Night? Was it renewed or put on hold until something goes wrong with the new series?
Overall, this first look fall schedule looks good. I look forward to seeing what the reboot of Quantum Leap will bring.

On Monday, Fox becomes the second broadcasting network to released their 2021-2022 fall schedule. There are a few changes with The Big Leap taking Monday nights after 9-1-1 (with 9-1-1 Lonestar set for Midseason) and Lee Daniels' new series taking on Prodigal Son's Tuesday slot.
Expect to see both 9-1-1 and 9-1-1: Lonestar to be separated this fall as Lonestar will premiere in midseason. The Big Leap, the Scott Foley-fronted ance dramedy, will take over Lonestar's timeslot.

On Friday, NBC was the first broadcast network to unveil its 2021-2022 game plan and there's something funny about it. There's no sitcom for the first time(?) on the network's fall schedule. But there's a resurgent of Law and Order.
Here's the Fall Schedule:
MONDAY:
8/7c The Voice
10/9c Ordinary Joe (NEW)
TUESDAY
8/7c The Voice
9/8c La Brea (NEW)

SATURDAY:
8/7c Drama Encores
9/8c Dateline Saturday night Mystery

SUNDAY
7/6c Football Night in America
8/7c Sunday Night Football
Midseason: AGT: Extreme, American Auto, America Song Contest, Grand Crew, Kenan, Mr. Mayo, The Thing About Pam, This Is Us, Young Rock.
The fall schedule looks pretty good with the addition of For the Defense making Thursday night Law & Order night. It's kind of strange that there are no comedies in the fall. This Is Us final season holding back until midseason is a smart move and Brooklyn Nine-Nine gets the after Olympic premiere for its final season is another one too.
I wonder if with AGT Extreme holding for midseason, will it take place of the second cycle of The Voice? That's something to see and it looks like they're going to take what American Idol has done for the past 20 years.
