Fall TV premiere dates 2019: When every new and returning show debuts
There are some days we look forward to every year: the start of summer, Christmas, your birthday. And our personal favorite: the return of fall TV.
The TV landscape has changed immeasurably in recent years, and we have premieres to look forward to throughout the year thanks to midseason shows, streaming, and more. But that doesn’t mean fall television isn’t still an event — it feels as much a part of the turning of the seasons as the leaves changing or the return of football.
From the Big Five networks to premium cable to streaming, here’s a handy guide to the premiere dates for all of the biggest shows. Mark your calendar now for these series and season premieres. (This post will be updated as more dates are announced.)
