NBC has unveiled its fall 2026-27 primetime schedule, with the network making one of its biggest moves by bringing breakout reality hit The Traitors to broadcast while continuing to lean heavily on franchise brands, including the Chicago and Law & Order universes.

The schedule, announced ahead of the 2026-27 television season, combines returning hits with new scripted fare. NBC is using established performers such as The Voice and its Dick Wolf-produced dramas to anchor the lineup while giving newcomer Line of Fire a coveted launch position.
A key headline from the schedule is the addition of The Traitors to Thursday nights. The Emmy-winning competition series, hosted by Alan Cumming, has become a major success for Peacock and now receives a broadcast showcase. The move also triggers a reshuffling within the Law & Order franchise, with the flagship series moving to 10 p.m.
