Welcome Back, Network TV: Premiere Dates and Episode Counts for ABC, CBS, The CW, Fox and NBC

Six months of strike-related uncertainty are now behind us, TV fans, and we all have the same question: When are our shows coming back?

More from TVLine

Now that the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes have thankfully been resolved, TV networks are hard at work getting their shows back into production and back on the air as soon as possible. A traditional 22-episode season is no longer a possibility at this late stage, but many of our favorite shows on ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox and The CW will be returning for 10 to 15-episode seasons in the next few months. Hooray!

Since we can’t wait, either, we here at TVLine have collected all the scraps of info we have on the coming season of network TV and put them here in one place for your reading convenience. (So go ahead and bookmark this page and come back to it in the coming weeks and months to get the latest on when your shows are back.)

Read on to get the scoop on when shows on the five major broadcast networks will be back on the air, along with how many episodes they’ll each have, if that’s been reported. (Note: For more info on when cable and streaming shows will be returning post-strike, check out our handy-dandy “When Is My Show Back?” master calendar.)
