NBC Fall Schedule: Reba McEntire Kicks Off 2nd Comedy Block, Found and The Irrational on the Move
NBC on Friday became the second broadcast network (after CBS) to unveil its schedule for the Fall TV season. What shows are on the move, where did new ones land, and what’s on hold until midseason?
? The freshman hits Found and The Irrational are both moving to new nights for Season 2 — Thursday and Tuesday, respectively. “With [Law & Order: Organized Crime] moving to Peacock, that allows us to use SVU, which is obviously one of the strongest dramas on television, to lead into Found,” Jeff Bader, president of program planning strategy for NBCUniversal Entertainment, explained to TVLine, whereas The Irrational once again has The Voice as a lead-in, just on a different night.
