NBC was the one network that had made plans for the strike and as a result, was able to add a few new series—The Irrational and Found—during the Fall 2023 TV season, but now the Peacock Network has revealed the return dates for its fan favorites, including all three Chicago shows and all three Law & Order series.
The January return of NBC series will get a jump on CBS and ABC, both of which are looking to February for their launches.
