CBS Fall 2024 Schedule Delayed for Mid-October Start

CBS Fall 2024 Schedule Delayed for Mid-October Start

Television

Every network is different, which CBS proved today with the release of their fall 2024 schedule.

While we TV Fanatics are eager to return to the shows we love, such as Elsbeth, Blue Bloods, NCIS, and the FBI shows, CBS wants us to salivate just a little bit longer.

It’s not our favorite thing, but maybe it will mean fewer hiatuses so that we can savor our shows as they were intended to be viewed — with little interruption. Hey, we can dream, right?
