ABC's Strike-Proof Fall 2023 Schedule Includes 'Dancing With the Stars,' 'Bachelor' Spinoffs, and More
Monday
8 p.m.: Dancing with the Stars
10 p.m.: The Golden Bachelor (new show)
After one season on Disney+, DWTS is back on ABC. Alfonso Ribeiro will host with Julianne Hough, who replaces Tyra Banks. Meanwhile, The Golden Bachelor is a new Bachelor spinoff featuring a man over 60, with women contestants who are also over 60. The project has been in the work for years, but was postponed by the COVID-19 pandemic.
prevnextTuesday
8 p.m.: Celebrity Jeopardy!
9 p.m.: Bachelor in Paradise
Bachelor in Paradise will return for another season in the fall, but will air on Tuesdays. Last season, the show was given the DWTS Monday slot and served as the lead-in to The Good Doctor. Celebrity Jeopardy! is set to return in the fall. It was hosted by Mayim Bialik, but she has refused to cross the picket line in a show of solidarity to the writers.
prevnextWednesday
8 p.m.: Judge Steve Harvey
9 p.m.: Abbott Elementary (two encore episodes)
10 p.m.: What Would You Do?
Judge Steve Harvey will lead off Wednesday nights, which ABC has usually reserved for sitcoms. ABC will try to get Abbott Elementary in front of more eyeballs by airing back-to-back reruns of the acclaimed workplace comedy. What Would You Do? is a long-running hidden camera show.
prevnextThursday
8 p.m.: Celebrity Wheel of Fortune
9 p.m.: Press Your Luck
10 p.m.: The $100,000 Pyramid
Thursdays will be an all-game show night for ABC. Celebrity Wheel of Fortune will kick things off, with Press Your Luck and The $100,000 Pyramid following. These shows usually air on Sundays. It will be a huge disappointment for those used to watching Station 19 and Grey's Anatomy on Thursday nights.
prevnextFriday and Saturday
Friday
8 p.m.: Shark Tank
9:01 p.m.: 20/20
Saturday
College Football
Friday and Saturday are the nights least impacted by the domination of unscripted shows. Shark Tank and 20/20 will continue airing on Fridays, with college football games dominating Saturday nights.
prevnextSunday
7 p.m.: America's Funniest Home Videos
8 p.m.: The Wonderful World of Disney (three hours)
It wouldn't be an ABC schedule without America's Funniest Home Videos on Sundays! ABC will also air Disney movies under the Wonderful World of Disney banner. The Rookie usually airs on Sundays and will likely return later in the season.
