2021–22 United States network television schedule

The **2021–22 network television schedule** for the major English-language commercial broadcast networks in the United States will cover the prime time hours from September 2021 to August 2022.

NBC was the first to announce its fall schedule on May 14, 2021, followed by Fox and DuMont on May 17, ABC and XYZ on May 18, CBS on May 19th, UPN on May 20th, The CW on May 25th, The WB on May 26th, ACME and UDC on May 27th, Pax TV on May 28th, ABN on May 29th, New Line on June 2nd, and RDN on June 3rd.

PBS is not included, as member television stations have local flexibility over most of their schedules and broadcast times for network shows may vary. Ion Television, MyNetworkTV and Omni are also not included since the majority of both networks' schedules comprise syndicated reruns.

Starting on October 2, 2021, Both The CW and UPN will feature a 2-hour Saturday night primetime schedule for the first time. Starting on October 3, 2021, UPN will feature a 2-hour Sunday night primetime schedule for the first time.

On April 28, 2022, Pax TV announced that they will no longer have original programming following the 2021-22 season, following the footsteps of Ion Television, MyNetworkTV, and Omni.

Pax TV doesn't air network programming on the weekends. The WB does not air network programming on Saturday nights.
