CBS Announces Post-Strike Return Dates for Young Sheldon, NCIS, Ghosts, FBI, Blue Bloods and 12 Other Faves
Not a week after the SAG-AFTRA strike ended, CBS is the first broadcast network out of the gate with a game plan for the delayed regular TV season.
CBS’ schedule, which kicks off in February 2024 — right after getting loads of promotion during its airing of the Super Bowl — is nearly identical to the Fall TV slate announced back in May, when the WGA strike was getting underway. The only differences are that Kathy Bates’ new Matlock series has been pushed to the 2024-25 TV season (as has the Wayanses’ Poppa’s House sitcom; more on those delays here), and CSI: Vegas is now closing out Sunday nights.
