Remove ads

The 2024–25 network television schedule for the five major English-language commercial broadcast networks in the United States covers the prime time hours from September 2024 to August 2025. The schedule is followed by a list per network of returning series, new series, and series canceled after the 2023–24 television season.

CBS was the first to announce its initial fall schedule on May 2, 2024 via press release (without an upfront presentation),[1] followed by NBC on May 10 (with its upfront presentation at 10:30 a.m. Eastern Time on May 13),[2] Fox on May 13 (with its upfront presentation at 4 p.m. that day),[3] ABC on May 14 (with its upfront presentation at 4 p.m. that day),[4][5] and The CW on May 16 (without an upfront presentation).[6][7]

PBS is not included, as member television stations have local flexibility over most of their schedule and broadcast times for network shows may vary. Ion Television and MyNetworkTV are also not included since both networks' schedules feature syndicated reruns (with limited original programming on the latter).

Each of the 30 highest-rated shows released in May 2025 is listed with their ranks and ratings as determined by Nielsen Media Research.[8]
