2015–16 United States network television schedule
|
|
The 2015–16 network television schedule for the five major English commercial broadcast networks in the United States covers primetime hours from September 2015 to August 2016. The schedule is followed by a list per network of returning series, new series, and series canceled after the 2014–15 season.
The five networks will announce their schedules in May 2015.
PBS is not included; member 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 is not included on weekends, when it does not offer network programming.
