We know that American Idol and Roseanne are joining ABC’s midseason schedule, but they also have a lot of other shows that will be joining the two revivals.
We knew that American Idol is debuting Sunday, May 11th, but we did not know it was going to air two nights a week because that worked so well for Fox. If Idol is not magic enough, then Deception will be the answer. It’s a show about a magician turned FBI consultant. That Tuesday, For the People, a legal drama, replaces the recently concluded Kevin (Probably) Saves the World. Then the following Thursday, the Grey’s Anatomy spinoff about first responders premieres. Now we are up to Roseanne premiering on the 27th at 8p, later on that night we will get to know Oliver Hudson and Jenna Fischer’s sitcom Splitting Up Together. The next night Alex, Inc replaces Speechless. Both the latter sitcom and Fresh Off the Boat have their season finales the week beforehand.
Then in April, the Sci-Fi drama The Crossing replaces The Good Doctor. It has the potential to being a hit because it has that Sci-Fi feel we have been longing for. At then end of the month, Quantico joins TGIT and Dancing replaces Idol on Mondays.
