What Else to Watch on TV During March Madness
March Madness is here, but if you’re not a basketball fan, the annual NCAA college basketball tournament isn’t the only thing on TV from Tuesday, March 14 through Monday, April 3.
Fortunately, with all the TV there is these days — broadcast, cable, and streaming — there are plenty of options if you’re looking for something fresh to watch (even if it’s one of the days CBS will be running March Madness coverage in the primetime). Plus, there are some days without any games (March 20-22, March 27-31, and April 2).
Below, check out which shows are still airing and releasing new episodes on the days there will be March Madness games. (And you might want to keep an eye out on start times for CBS’ primetime lineup on Sundays, March 19 and March 26, in case of delays due to a game).
