Fox Schedules Return of So You Think You Can Dance for May 18; CW Acquires Family Drama

An all-new season of the Emmy Award-winning dance competition series So You Think You Can Dance will premiere Wednesday, May 18 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT), following the season finale of The Masked Singer (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) on Fox. The series will introduce a new dynamic judging panel - welcoming home Stephen "tWitch" Boss, alongside Emmy-, Tony- and Golden Globe-nominated artist Matthew Morrison and dancer, singer and digital sensation JoJo Siwa. Presenter and author Cat Deeley will step back into her role as host of the dance competition series. The brand-new version will feature highly skilled dancers between the ages of 18 and 30, showcasing their talents in various dance styles, including contemporary, tap, hip-hop, ballroom, animation, breaking and more. Those who are selected to move on to the SYTYCD studio will work with world-renowned choreographers and compete each week in a variety of styles, with brand-new twists and turns introduced into the competition.

Family Law

The CW Network has acquired the one-hour Canadian drama series Family Law (not to be confused with the CBS 1999-2022 drama of the same name), distributed by Entertainment One (eOne) which stars Jewel Staite (Firefly) and Emmy(R) and Tony(R) nominated Victor Garber (DC's Legends of Tomorrow, Alias). The premiere of Family Law will be announced at a later date. The series follows lawyer and recovering alcoholic Abigail Bianchi (Staite) struggling to put her career and family back together after hitting rock bottom. As a condition of her probation, Abby is forced to work at her estranged father Harry's (Garber) firm, Svensson and Associates, and practice in family law for the first time while forging new relationships with the half-brother Daniel (Zach Smadu, Cardinal) and half-sister Lucy (Genelle Williams, The Expanse) whom she's never met. The result is a dysfunctional family law firm operating to help other families with their own dysfunctions.

The drama joins a growing slate of scripted acquisitions for The CW, which over the past year includes the one-hour drama Leonardo starring Aidan Turner, Matilda De Angelis and Freddie Highmore, the half-hour comedy-drama Bump starring Nathalie Morris and the international action series Professionals starring Tom Welling, Brendan Fraser and Elena Anaya. Premiere dates for these series will be announced at a later date. Viewers have also been introduced to international hits such as the investigative drama Coroner starring Serinda Swan, supernatural comedy series Wellington Paranormal, and the thriller Devils starring Alessandro Borghi and Patrick Dempsey, all of which will return for new seasons later this year.
