Remove ads

The 2000–01 network television schedule for the six major English language commercial broadcast networks in the United States covers primetime hours from September 2000 to August 2001. The schedule is followed by a list per network of returning series, new series, and series cancelled after the 1999–2000 season.

PBS is not included; member stations have local flexibility over most of their schedules and broadcast times for network shows may vary. Also not included are stations affiliated with Pax TV, as its schedule is composed mainly of syndicated reruns although it also carried a limited schedule of first-run programs.

Each of the 30 highest-rated shows released in May 2001 is listed with its rank and rating in parentheses (#rank / rating), as determined by Nielsen Media Research.[1]

From September 15 to October 1, 2000, all of NBC's primetime programming was preempted in favor of coverage of the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney.
