ABC announces fall schedule and new series for 2019

by Sean P. Aune | May 14, 2019May 14, 2019 2:19 pm EDT

ABC has announced its new lineup, and it seems the network didn’t want to shake things up too much.

As it stands right now, ABC is only bringing four new series into the Fall lineup. When you aren’t changing your schedule too much, that doesn’t leave much room for new series.

What is interesting is it seems Sunday night is the night all of the networks are playing around with a bit. It’s clear the night is still very much in play, but perhaps no network is quite sure what to do with it.

Overall, it’s going to be a quiet Fall for ABC.

Be sure to check out the Fox and NBC schedules as well.
