ABC’s fall 2026 lineup includes returning favorites like 9-1-1 , 9-1-1: Nashville , Abbott Elementary , Grey’s Anatomy , The Rookie , Will Trent , Dancing With the Stars , Shark Tank , and Celebrity Wheel of Fortune. ABC also has Scrubs and R.J. Decker in the mix, while High Potential is being held for midseason rather than airing in the fall.

What stands out

ABC’s schedule is pretty steady this fall, leaning on established hits instead of a huge reset. The biggest notable holdback is High Potential , which ABC is saving for later in the season.

Newer and returning shows

The network’s confirmed returning slate includes 9-1-1 , 9-1-1: Nashville , Abbott Elementary , Grey’s Anatomy , The Rookie , Will Trent , Dancing With the Stars , Shark Tank , Celebrity Jeopardy! , and Celebrity Wheel of Fortune. ABC’s fall grid also places Scrubs and R.J. Decker on the schedule.

Timing note

ABC has said some premiere dates were still being finalized in the reports I found, so the night-by-night schedule is clearer than the exact premiere calendar right now.
