Fall TV Premiere Dates: September

And now, the time has come for the fall season to officially begin. After a busy summer full of vampires, aliens, murderers, tyrants, mistresses, and everything in between, the broadcast networks will be unveiling a good chunk of their fall schedule during September, with the first premiere being FOX reality experiment Utopia on September 7th. Despite the increased efforts of the broadcast networks to stagger their fall premiere dates, they, bar The CW, are still by and large tied to traditional Premiere Week, as you’ll note by how congested the third week of the month is.

This year, TVHackr is giving you monthly premiere dates for the warmest time of the year, with the primary focus being original on-going scripted and reality series. Not included are specials, awards ceremonies, miniseries, sporting events, and season/series finales, while notable scripted programming to bow during this time period includes ABC character procedural Forever, CBS political drama Madam Secretary, and FOX comic drama Gotham, which stars Ben McKenzie and Donal Logue.

A full list of September season/series premieres with date, time, and network attached can be found below. An October list will be published in either late September or early October.
