The 2025-2026 season — specifically those shows returning and premiering in the fall — will be here before you know it! NBC has joined CBS, ABC, and Fox in unveiling its fall 2025 premiere dates.

It all begins with The Voice‘s return, with coaches Michael Bublé, Reba McEntire, Niall Horan and Snoop Dogg, and the Brilliant Minds Season 2 premiere on Monday, September 22. Then the Law & Order franchise once again takes over Thursdays — yes, that’s Organized Crime back on the schedule, with the Season 5 episodes that already streamed on Peacock (there’s no news about Season 6) — on September 24. The other Dick Wolf franchise, One Chicago, kicks off its new seasons on Wednesday, October 1. NBC’s hit comedies St. Denis Medical and Happy’s Place both start their second seasons the week of November 3 with back-to-back airings on Mondays and Fridays.

Plus, NBA returns to NBC beginning on Tuesday, October 21, with the hourlong pregame show starting at 6:30/5:30c. The teams playing in the 7:30/6:30c and 10/9c premiere Tip Off doubleheader will be announced shortly.

The Hunting Party‘s return and The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins and Stumble premieres will receive dates during the 2025-2026 season at a later time. (The Hunting Party was originally slated to take over that Thursday 10/9c slot.)

Below, check out all of NBC’s fall 2025 premiere dates. (Plus, check out all the fall 2025 premiere dates we know so far here.)

            GreenRocket

            That is an awesome idea. I wonder if the network could get the permissions needed. Johnny was and always be the King of late night comedy. Jimmy Fallon is definately no Johnny Carson.

          Totally agree with above comments

          Found was a great show and you keep Reba ( loved her in reba) not this one..Brilliant minds is awful. Networks messed up! Love Chicago lineup and law and order. Will need to search for new ones someplace.

      “Where” is incorrect here. We think you meant “was,” as in the past tense of “is.”

      I would love Found & Irrational back, but Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage is on CBS, so it wouldn’t help. 🙁

  15. B

    BlueBoomerang

    Just don’t know why they still wait until October to premiere shows! When used to be always September until Covid but now they’ve taken advantage of that & continue to push things to October. Laziness of producers or not wanting to pay actors or whatever the excuse I’m not in favor of the shorter seasons! They’re short enough as it is!!

    When is Password going to air?
