The network is leaning into its incomparable unscripted slate, with Dancing with the Stars making history once again by becoming the first series to broadcast live across multiple platforms on Monday nights followed by the highly anticipated premiere of The Golden Bachelor. Star-studded game shows The $100,000 Pyramid, Celebrity Jeopardy!, Celebrity Wheel of Fortune and Press Your Luck as well as the 15th season of multi-Emmy® Award-winning Shark Tank and the sophomore season of Judge Steve Harvey return. Bachelor in Paradise takes over Tuesdays to satisfy everyone's guilty pleasure.

ABC News' What Would You Do?, which ran for an impressive 15 seasons, also makes its return to primetime reintroducing the iconic hidden camera show to new and returning audiences.

Timing for previously announced renewals and pickups, including 9-1-1, Abbott Elementary, American Idol, The Bachelor, The Conners, The Good Doctor, Grey’s Anatomy, High Potential, Not Dead Yet, The Rookie, Station 19, and Will Trent will be announced at a later date.
