As the networks release their schedules for the 2012-13 TV season, we'll collect them here — so you can return, as need be, to make sense of things and plan your upcoming viewing schedule.
Although, to be honest, time slots aren't as critical as they were in the old days. But finding the good shows quickly — that's even more important, and tricky, than ever. Between these schedules, initial critical reactions and the one-stop-shopping video samples we're providing for
ABC,
CBS,
Fox,
NBC and
the CW (as they're made available), we aim to help.
New shows are listed in red.
