ABC announced their schedule for next season, and 2027 is going to be good for them. That is because they left off most of their scripted shows, except 9-1-1. 9-1-1: Nashville, Grey’s Anatomy, Scrubs, and Abbott Elementary. The rest is sports and unscripted.
Oh, and I forgot R.J. Decker, which the viewers also forgot about.
High Potential, Shifting Gears, The Rookie, The Rookie: North, and Will Trent are being held until midseason, along with The Bachelor.

THE ROOKIE: NORTH
Expanding the universe, “The Rookie: North” introduces Alex Holland who believed his midlife wasn’t worthy of a crisis. But after a violent home invasion ignites a dormant purpose, Alex battles a lifetime of failed commitments by joining the Pierce County Police Department as a rookie. Policing from the urban coast to the rural forest where backup isn’t just five minutes away, Alex must prove to his skeptical training officer, his fellow rookies and himself, that he’s finally found something worthy of the fight. The all-new series stars Jay Ellis, Janet Montgomery, Karen Fukuhara, Chris Sullivan, Froy Gutierrez, Mya Lowe and Malik Watson.
