The year 2021 is already in full swing with the returns of your hit shows and the premieres of brand-new series. Here’s your guide to the 2021 TV premiere dates across networks and streaming services.

It’s a new year, which means a whole new set of premiere dates. January TV is already well underway with new and returning shows premiering. The TV premiere dates for winter 2021 will continue throughout the upcoming months.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, much of the fall TV season was pushed to January 2021. All of The CW’s series will premiere in January and February 2021. Hit shows like 9-1-1 and spinoff like 9-1-1: Lone Star will premiere their new seasons on January 18.
