How Are the Winter Olympics Affecting Your Favorite Shows?
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.
Scroll down to see how long you’ll have to wait for new episodes of your favorite shows, and keep checking back for updates. (Note: The below only includes those that have already been airing new episodes, not ones set to premiere after the Olympics.)

I will miss some of my faves, but not enough to watch "the china show". I cannot understand why we are sending our athletes there after they tried to kill us all!

Why doesn't ESPN air the Olympics. Isn't that what its supposed to be, a sports network. No, I have plenty of alternatives to watch.

Haven't watched the games since the 90's. Gave up when it became more about the athletes and not the games.
Got tired of hearing about how the parents got up at 4 in the morning to take the kid to practice and the single mom who had to get two jobs so she could take the wanna be to meets across the state and country to qualify for a higher ranking.
And as a afterthought they post the names of the winners if the precious one doesn't medal.
