The CW on Thursday became the fourth broadcast network (after CBS, NBC and ABC; Fox punted) to unveil its schedule for the 2023-24 TV season. What does the in-transition, Nexstar-owned netlet have penciled in for fall, and what’s on hold until midseason?
♦ All American, one of two veteran shows picked up thus far by the “new” CW, is set for a fall return, paired with the “saved” AMC castoff 61st Street. Walker, meanwhile, is being held for midseason.
♦ For the first time in a while, The CW will have an all-scripted comedy night, on Tuesdays. God bless acquisitions!
♦ Thursdays will be all-FBoy Island, with a new episode leading out of a rerun. The FGirl Island spinoff will launch at midseason.
♦ The I AM documentary film franchise, which was launched in 2012 and profiles figures such as Bruce Lee, Chris Farley, John F. Kennedy Jr. and Heath Ledger, will occupy Sunday nights.
