After significantly overhauling its schedule last season with the addition of the NBA, NBC has opted for stability this time around for the 2026–2027 season.
Starting in November, St. Denis Medical will kick off Monday nights with its third season. The comedy will be followed by The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins, recently renewed for a second season, and then by The Voice, which will serve as the lead-in to the new drama Line of Fire, starring Peter Krause.
Wednesdays will remain entirely dedicated to the One Chicago franchise, while Thursdays will allow viewers to catch up with two of NBC’s long-standing staples: Law & Order and Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.
On Fridays, the network will also retain its comedy block with Happy’s Place and Newlyweds, a new series starring Téa Leoni and Tim Daly, a duo viewers have already seen together in Madam Secretary.
NBC has, however, chosen to save two new series for the midseason. The Rockford Files, starring David Boreanaz (Bones), will premiere in January 2027 on Thursdays at 8:00 p.m., while Sunset P.I. will arrive in February 2027 on Mondays at 8:30 p.m.
It should be noted that, at the time of writing, NBC has not yet decided the fate of The Hunting Party.

What are NBC’s new series for the 2026–2027 season?
Line of Fire
The series will follow a family of law enforcement officers who set aside their personal differences to collaborate on investigations involving the FBI, the U.S. Marshals Service, the Secret Service, and the Department of Justice. When a seemingly simple case turns into a vast, deadly conspiracy, they’ll have to use every skill at their disposal to survive and bring the culprit to justice… even if it means betraying their own code of honor.
The cast includes Peter Krause (9-1-1), Hope Davis (Your Honor), Kat Cunning (The Deuce), Tommy O’Brien (Grown-ish), Taylor Bloom (American Horror Story), and Charlie Barnett (Chicago Fire).
The Rockford Files
A remake of the 1970s series of the same name, The Rockford Files will follow James Rockford, played by David Boreanaz, a man recently released on parole after being convicted of a crime he did not commit. Back in Los Angeles, he resumes his work as a private investigator and uses his charm and intelligence to solve various cases.
The series will also feature Jacki Weaver (Yellowstone), Felix Solis (Ozark), and Michaela McManus (Aquarius) in the cast.
Newlyweds
This new romantic comedy follows a free-spirited woman (Tea Leoni) and a particularly stuffy professor (Tim Daly) who decide to get married on a whim after a quick engagement.
Sunset P.I.
Sunset P.I. will follow the investigations of an unconventional team of private detectives in Los Angeles. The lead roles will be played by Jake Johnson (New Girl) and Jane Levy (Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist).
