ABC Sets Fall Premiere Dates Beginning Sept. 21

ABC is now the second broadcaster to reveal fall premiere dates. The network announced several new shows while releasing its fall lineup back in May, and it now joins Fox, which rolled out its fall premiere dates and schedule on June 6, as the only two broadcasters to unveil series premieres. ABC's schedule kicks off Wednesday, Sept. 21, with a night of comedy. The Conners premieres at 8 p.m., followed by The Goldbergs, breakout hit Abbott Elementary and Home Economics. Big Sky then premieres on its new night at 10 p.m., bringing new cast members Reba McEntire and Jensen Ackles. Shark Tank's first-ever live episode, featuring all six original Sharks, and 20/20 premiere on Friday, Sept. 23. Then the new Celebrity Jeopardy! follows on Sunday, Sept. 25, at 8 p.m., with Celebrity Wheel of Fortune and The Rookie airing after. America's Funniest Home Videos joins the Sunday lineup at 7 p.m. the following week on Oct. 2. ABC Adds Rookie Spinoff, Hilary Swank Drama to Fall Lineup Bachelor fans can finally get their fill starting Tuesday, Sept. 27, with two hours of Bachelor in Paradise airing at 8 p.m. Niecy Nash-Betts' The Rookie spinoff, The Rookie: Feds, follows with its debut at 10 p.m. Bachelor in Paradise begins its two-night weekly run starting Monday, Oct. 3 at 8 p.m. The Good Doctor then closes out the night at 10 p.m. Here's where things get even more interesting: Hilary Swank's new drama has tweaked its title. The series, which features Swank as a disgraced reporter leaving New York for a daily metro newspaper in Alaska, was originally known as Alaska. Now, the series will go by Alaska Daily. Per ABC, it will premiere at 10:01 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 6, instead of its original slated time of 10 p.m. Again, these aren't major changes, but they're worth noting. Grey's Anatomy leads into Alaska Daily at 9 p.m., and Station 19 precedes that at 8 p.m. The broadcaster is saving several shows for midseason, including American Idol, A Million Little Things, The Bachelor, Judge Steve Harvey, The Wonder Years and new series Not Dead Yet. Those additional premiere dates will come at a later time.
