All five of the broadcast networks — ABC, CBS, The CW, FOX, and NBC — have released their plans for the fall portion of the 2020-21 season. Due to the coronavirus-19 threat and television production shutdown, some of the networks have had to take unorthodox approaches. FOX and The CW filled their fall schedules with mostly ready-to-go programming, saving regular shows for mid-season. Depending on how the production restart goes, the networks may have to rework some of their plans.

Thanks
You’re welcome.
I am still upset that A Million Little Things has been cancelled. It was actually a show that was worth watching!
Any chance of it returning?
It wasn’t cancelled, it’s going to be on Thursday after Grey’s Anatomy.
Great news
It’s such a junkie to CBS network line up with the total crap from Chuck LorreWith too many of his crappy shows on. This network is dead I don’t care what the networks are saying, I’ll don’t care how many viewers are just network is gone. A total waste of ……. CBS stands for Chuck Lorre Broadcast system. This is a total joke they’re doing over there. Sad sad sad i’ll be doing real life .
please excuse any typos
I judt watched the last episode of Cedar Cove’s season 3 and am so disappointed n Ted to find out that there won’t be a season 4. There was no closure with so many characters and it leaves us hanging.
I loved the characters and watching how the issues among couples, friends, relatives were resolved. So sad to see it was cancelled.
i enjoyed cedar cove soooo sorry to see it go soooooooooooo much more to have watched storyline was great
You can always read the books to find out what happens – it’s a whole series 🙂
but WHEN? In september 2020? October 2020?
when in the dark be coming back on tv we loved that show.
Live PD should be picked up by another network..
If NBC leaves its viewers hanging with that last episode of Season 5 of Blindspot they should be ashamed of themselves.
What else do you want? Jane died–it sucks, but it ended well..The series started with her coming out of a bag, it ended with her getting zipped into one..
Get ready to be disappointed. NBC has been doing this for the past decade. The cancel so many shows abruptly that its not worth even having this channel in your tv channel lineup. there is so little to watch on public network tv that i dont even bother anymore. ever since the simpsons died a decade ago, i’ll only watch family guy, sheldon, who’s line is it anyway, and the goldbergs/connors.
What can’t anyone say about cbs network? It’s Dominated dominatedby one producer director and have FOUR shows on? Really? Is this how bad the network is and nobody wants to work with them at cbs network? Totally trash and antisocial themes. I one of many will not view any of cbs trashy shows.
do you even know what you are saying? nothing you typed makes any sense.
Apparently, attacking people seem to be your specialty here. Of course I understand what he’s saying but if you did read you would understand.
en raison de la crise sanitaire j’éspère que la série magnum pi pourra etre diffusé cette automne sur la chaine CBS
j’ai vu que la serie magnum pi saison 3 serait certainement cette automne sur la chaine CBS toujours a la meme heure et bien sur diffusé le vendredi je vot pour cette serie qui est formidable
Swat?
Prodigal Son ?
Mid Season
It was renewed, but will likely return mid season
