If the Winter Olympics just aren’t your kind of thing or you’re looking for something to watch to give you a break during them, you’re in luck: They may be taking over NBC (and other NBCUniversal channels) and Peacock, but you’ll still have plenty of options when it comes to your primetime viewing.

In fact, new episodes of some of your favorites — like on ABC and Fox — will continue to air. On CBS, Celebrity Big Brother will be on multiple nights a week. Fox is introducing a new dance competition, The Real Dirty Dancing. Plus, in some cases, you can always catch reruns of your regular shows in case you missed an episode.
