Big Four midseason 2024 premieres, returns: ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox



Hollywood’s labor strife is safely in its rearview mirror — and the Big Four networks are shifting their sights to the imminent winter television season.

ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox have announced launch dates for their new and returning comedies, dramas and game shows, some of which are just now premiering after being delayed due to the now-settled WGA and SAG-AFTRA work stoppages that wreaked havoc on the networks’ fall schedules.
