Fox Announces Fall 2026 Schedule With Sept. 21–27 Premiere Week

The network is grouping returning hits into branded nights to concentrate viewers around live viewing and sports lead-ins.

Overview

  • Fox released its fall schedule Tuesday, setting a Sept. 21–27 premiere week and publishing specific launch dates for shows across each night.
  • The fall season opens Monday, Sept. 21 with Celebrity Name That Tune at 8 p.m. followed by Celebrity Weakest Link at 9 p.m.
  • Tuesday will be the network’s lone scripted night with Best Medicine at 8 p.m. and Doc at 9 p.m., while Wednesdays become a game-show block starting Sept. 23 with The Floor at 8 p.m. and 99 to Beat at 9 p.m.
  • Fox reshapes Sunday’s Animation Domination to begin Sept. 27 with The Simpsons, Animal Control (Season 5), Universal Basic Guys and Grimsburg, and Fox College Football Friday returns Sept. 4 as a sports lead-in.
  • There are no new series on the fall lineup; Fox instead flagged three new series for the broader 2026–27 season — a Baywatch reboot, the drama The Interrogator and the dating show Marriage Market — and reports differ on whether Hell’s Kitchen’s Season 25 premieres on Sept. 24 or Sept. 25.
