CBS Fall TV Shows 2023: The Complete Schedule and Premiere Dates

The CBS fall TV schedule has had plenty of changes due to production delays caused by the writers and actors strikes for fair compensation, but now it's pretty much set in stone... Yellowstone. The Paramount Network monster hit made its broadcast debut on Sunday, Sept. 17, clocking in with some of the best ratings of the young TV season. CBS also announced that it will be bringing NCIS: Sydney across the Pacific to air on American shores starting Nov. 14.

Other shows airing on CBS this fall include the original U.K. version of Ghosts — which will be paired on Thursday nights with reruns of the CBS version — and the Paramount+ series SEAL Team and FBI True. They're joined by new reality shows Lotería Loca, hosted by Jaime Camil; Buddy Games, hosted by Josh Duhamel; and game show Raid the Cage.

The previous CBS fall schedule included new series Elsbeth, a spin-off of The Good Wife and The Good Fight centered on Carrie Preston's quirky lawyer Elsbeth Tascioni; and Matlock, a new take on the classic series with Kathy Bates taking over the Matlock mantle as a lawyer in her 70s who returns to the workforce. Now, both of those have been pushed off the fall schedule; new premiere dates for those series have not been announced.

Two other new series were already slated for midseason: Tracker, a drama starring This Is Us' Justin Hartley as a man who uses his tracking skills to help solve mysteries, and the new Damon Wayans comedy Poppa's House, starring Wayans as a former talk show host trying to keep up with the times. Tracker was previously announced for the post-Super Bowl premiere slot.

Returning series that were originally scheduled to air on CBS this fall included Young Sheldon, Blue Bloods, NCIS, and FBI, which have been switched to reruns.
