2018-19 United States network television schedule

The **2018–19 network television schedule** for the five major English-language commercial broadcast networks in the United States covers prime time hours from September 2018 to August 2019. The schedule is followed by a list per network of returning series, new series, and series canceled after the 2017–18 season.

NBC was the first to announce its fall schedule on May 13, 2018, followed by DuMont and Fox on May 14 and ABC and MyTV on May 15 and CBS on May 16, The CW, UPN and The WB on May 17, New Line on May 29, DBC on June 13, and Acme, Omni, Pax TV, UDC on July 3, ABN on July 5, and RDN on September 17. Also on May 29, ABC removed *Roseanne* from its Tuesday lineup due to a racist statement made by Roseanne Barr on Twitter.

PBS is not included; member television stations have local flexibility over most of their schedules and broadcast times for network shows may vary. Ion Television and MyNetworkTV are also not included since the majority of both networks' schedules comprise syndicated reruns (with limited original programming on the former). The CW and The WB does not program on Saturday nights. Neither Omni, UDC or UPN aren't included on weekends due to them not having programming on the weekends.

Beginning with this season, The CW will return to programming Sunday evenings for the first time since the 2008–09 season; it will air programming from 8 p.m.–10 p.m. ET/PT.

Beginning on Sept. 17, 2018, MyTV will be renamed XYZ, as it was announced on June 11, 2018 by part-owners of MyTV Disney/ABC.
