ABC comedies The Goldbergs, The Conners and black-ish start new seasons Oct. 21. American Housewife joins the Wednesday comedy block Oct. 28.
The pandemic has caused all sorts of delays in terms of network production.
“We couldn’t be more excited to spread some much-needed joy with our Wednesday night comedy lineup,” said Karey Burke, president, ABC Entertainment. “While we had to be incredibly flexible this year, we are so lucky that we’re able to continue our long tradition of making Wednesday night comedy a strong staple of our fall broadcast schedule.”
