Well, nearly enough to get each series into December - if not into early 2024, if NBC schedules a rerun here and there. (with the back half of its final season), plus freshman dramas The Irrational and Found (both of which wrapped filming earlier this year).įWIW, NBC also has episodes of La Brea Season 3 and a whole season of the new sitcom Extended Family at the ready, though both are being held for midseason at this point. They include the returning Quantum Leap (with Season 2) and Magnum P.I. NBC, meanwhile, has no fewer than four original series that will be ready to go this fall with new episodes - around 40 hours’ worth of bakery-fresh content in all. Sure, The CW has eight scripted series populating its own fall line-up, but each and everyone one of ’em are acquired shows that have already aired/streamed elsewhere.ĬBS is “borrowing” a pair of scripted series from sister outlets - Paramount Network’s Yellowstone and Paramount+s SEAL Team - to fill slots on its own slate, and is also airing repeats of NCIS, FBI and Blue Bloods.Īnd between Fox and ABC, the only scripted fare is the former’s animated offerings (all penned a long while ago) and Abbott Elementary reruns on the latter.

For years, it was speculated by fans that the ending title cards were forced by NBC at the last minute as a result of the show's cancellation and that an alternate ending existed of Al leaping back for Sam, but the show's showrunner Donald Bellisario denied that such ending ever existed. While the final episode was otherwise well-received by fans of the series, the ending was widely criticized for being rushed and ending the series on a bitter note.
