- NBC unveiled its 2026‑2027 fall schedule, placing “The Traitors” on Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT as a lead‑in for “Law & Order: SVU.”
- Law & Order was renewed for a 26th season, with NBC president Lisa Katz denying it was “on the bubble” and confirming its slot after “Law & Order: SVU.”
- Line of Fire, starring Peter Krause and Hope Davis, will debut on Mondays at 10 p.m. in September after “The Voice.”
- The Rockford Files reboot starring David Boreanaz is slated to premiere in January as a midseason entry.
- Sunset PI, a comedy from the “Brooklyn Nine‑Nine” team, is scheduled for a February midseason launch.
Why it matters: Advertisers gain a fresh Thursday lead‑in with The Traitors and a secured Law & Order season, while NBC locks in 26 more episodes of a proven franchise; postponing Rockford Files and Sunset PI pushes their ad revenue to early 2027.
