ABC has officially locked in its Fall 2025 premiere schedule, becoming the second major broadcast network after CBS to roll out its lineup.
The first scripted series to hit the airwaves will be High Potential, premiering Tuesday, September 16, right after the season premiere of Dancing With the Stars. The rest of ABC’s scripted slate, including fan favorites and new entries, will begin rolling out in October.
Returning staples like Grey’s Anatomy, Abbott Elementary, 9-1-1, and Shifting Gears are all set to make their comeback in the fall. Also making waves this season is the much-anticipated spinoff 9-1-1: Nashville, starring Chris O’Donnell and Jessica Capshaw, which is slated for an October debut.
Meanwhile, The Rookie and Will Trent won’t be returning until midseason, joining the upcoming Scrubs revival, which was recently confirmed by the network.
