2011–12 United States network television schedule

The 2011–12 network television schedule for the five major English-language commercial broadcast networks in the United States covers primetime hours from September 2011 through August 2012. The schedule is followed by a list per network of returning series, new series, and series canceled after the 2010/11 season.

NBC was the first to announce their fall schedule on May 15, 2011, followed by Fox on May 16, 2011, ABC on May 17, 2011, CBS on May 18, 2011 and The CW on May 19, 2011.

The CW was the first to announce their midseason schedule on November 2, 2011, followed by CBS and NBC on November 14, 2011, ABC on November 18, 2011 and Fox on December 1, 2011.

PBS is not included; member stations have local flexibility over most of their schedules and broadcast times for network shows may vary. MyNetworkTV is also not included since its programming comprises syndicated reruns. The CW is not included on weekends, when it does not offer network programming. Ion Television primarily airs syndicated reruns (similar to MyNetworkTV), along with new episodes of Flashpoint.

Schedule

• New series are highlighted in bold.
• All times given are in U.S. Eastern Time and Pacific Time (except for some live events or specials). Subtract one hour for Central and Mountain times.
• From July 27 to August 12, 2012 all of NBC's primetime programming was preempted in favor of coverage of the 2012 Summer Olympics in London.
