2022–23 United States network television schedule

The 2022–23 network television schedule for the five major English-language commercial broadcast networks in the United States covers the prime time hours from September 2022 to August 2023. The schedule is followed by a list per network of returning series, new series, and series canceled after the 2021–22 television season. The schedule was affected by strikes undertaken by the Writers Guild of America (which began on May 2 and ended on September 27) and SAG-AFTRA (which began on July 14 and ended on November 9), marking the first television season since the 1959–60 season that was affected by two simultaneous strikes; however because the strikes commenced in May and July, respectively, programming impacts on the 2022–23 season itself were limited in comparison to previous television seasons affected by Hollywood labor disputes as the next season was affected even more.

NBC was the first to announce its fall schedule on May 16, 2022, via press release, followed by an upfront presentation to advertisers at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time. ABC announced its fall schedule on May 17 (with an upfront presentation at 4:00 p.m. that day), followed by CBS on May 18 (with their upfront presentation at 4:00 p.m. that day), and The CW on May 19 (with their upfront presentation at 11:00 a.m. that day). Fox announced its programming on May 16 shortly after NBC (with their upfront presentation at 4:00 p.m. that day), but released its prime-time schedule (along with their premiere dates) on June 6.

This would be the last season that CBS News and Stations was affiliated with The CW, as Nexstar Media Group assumed operations on August 15, 2022, and acquired a 75-percent ownership stake on October 3, 2022; former joint owners Paramount Global and Warner Bros. Discovery retained a 25-percent stake, split at nominal 12.5-percent stakes for both companies. Under the agreement, Paramount was given a right with the transaction to disaffiliate all eight of their CW affiliates, which was exercised on May 5, 2023.

PBS is not included, as member television stations have local flexibility over most of their schedules and broadcast times for network shows may vary. Ion Television and MyNetworkTV are also not included as both networks' schedules feature syndicated reruns and live sports (with limited original programming on the latter).

Each of the 30 highest-rated shows released in May 2023 is listed with its rank and rating as determined by Nielsen Media Research.

New series to broadcast television are highlighted in bold.

Repeat airings or same-day rebroadcasts are indicated by (R).

All times are U.S. Eastern and Pacific Time (except for some live sports or events). Subtract one hour for Central, Mountain, Alaska, and Hawaii-Aleutian times.

All sporting events air live in all time zones in U.S. Eastern time, with local and/or late-night programming (including Fox affiliates during the 10 p.m. ET/PT hour) by affiliates after game completion.

During the NFL season (excluding games on broadcast networks, with ABC and/or Hearst affiliates having first refusal on games broadcast by ESPN (due to ABC being owned by the same company as ESPN, and Hearst owned 20% stake on ESPN), therefore its primetime programming from its respective network may be delayed or moved to another sister station to air live), the NFL policy on ESPN Monday Night Football, Thursday Night Football, NFL Network Exclusive Game Series and any game exclusively airing on Peacock and ESPN+ will affect the 31 primary markets (30 markets with NFL teams and Milwaukee, WI). The NFL sells syndication rights to the cable and streaming-only games to local broadcasters in the home and away teams' primary markets to maximize ratings.

During the NFL preseason, some affiliates may not air their respective primetime programming due to their local NFL team games and may choose to put its network's programming on a sister channel to air live, delay the program to air later on the network or preempt the shows entirely.

Impact of the 2023 Writers Guild of America and SAG-AFTRA strikes
On May 2, the Writers Guild of America went on strike, followed by SAG-AFTRA on July 13. The absence of working writers and actors through the summer has led scripted television production to shut down completely. The Writers Guild of America strike ended on September 27, while the SAG-AFTRA strike ended on November 9.

The vast majority of scripted primetime network series had already completed filming for the season by the end of April and aired as scheduled, but daytime and late night topical programs employing WGA writers such as Saturday Night Live and Jimmy Kimmel Live! went into repeats from May 2 onwards. Some unscripted programs that have typically aired during the summer, including Big Brother, were rescheduled to start later in the summer, which media outlets speculated was intended to help the networks manage the effects of the strikes.
