The CW Swaps Two Nights for Fall 2024 Schedule; Retta Returns to HGTV

The CW Network announced new fall premiere dates for the upcoming game shows Scrabble and Trivial Pursuit, as well as the fourth and final season of Superman & Lois and the new wild west unscripted series The Wranglers. Family game night moves to Thursdays this fall beginning October 3 with the series premieres of Scrabble (8:00-9:00pm ET/PT) hosted by Raven-Symoné followed by Trivial Pursuit (9:00-10:00pm ET/PT) hosted by LeVar Burton. The fourth and final season of Superman & Lois takes off with a special two-hour premiere event on Monday, October 7 (8:00-10:00pm ET/PT). The new wild west unscripted series The Wranglers about the lives of professional cowboys and cowgirls on a Montana dude ranch now debuts on Monday, October 14 (9:00-10:00pm ET/PT) following an original episode of Superman & Lois.
Retta, star of hit HGTV series Ugliest House in America, will check out the scary instead of the ugly when she hunts for the spookiest properties in Scariest House in America. Premiering on HGTV Friday, October 4, at 9 p.m. ET/PT, the new series will feature a former jail inhabited by bats, an alleged mobster hideout and a crumbling home that gives off witchy vibes. Retta, a comedian, actress and home design enthusiast, will tour nine eerie and terrifying houses through the Midwest, Northeast and South that have everything from built-in death traps and questionable taxidermy to daunting basements and ghost sightings.
Retta will share hilariously unfiltered views about each home's scary appearance, bad function and fright factor. HGTV will deem one house the "scariest" of them all and award the homeowners a $150,000 renovation by popular network designer Alison Victoria.
