Better late than never!
ABC has finally gotten around to announcing its fall 2012 premiere dates. Keep reading to find out when your favorite ABC shows will be back on the air!
The new fall schedule on ABC is a mix of the old and the new. A few shows have switched time-slots, and there are several new programs coming into the schedule. Some of the bigger changes include Revenge on Sundays at 9pm and a shake-up of the time-slots for ABC’s Wednesday-night comedies.
A few shows remain off the schedule at this point. These include mid-season programs Body of Proof and Wife Swap, along with the new dramas, Red Widow and Zero Hour. A final new drama, Mistresses, is scheduled to debut in the summer of 2013.

Laurel grew up in Mamaroneck, NY, Grosse Pointe, MI and Bellevue WA. She then went on to live in places like Boston, Tucson, Houston, Wales, Tanzania, Prince Edward Island and New York City before heading back to Seattle. Ever since early childhood, when she became addicted to The Muppet Show, Laurel has watched far too much TV. Current favorites include Chuck, Modern Family, Supernatural, Mad Men and Community. Laurel received a BA in Astrophysics (yes, that is possible) from Colgate University and a PhD in Middle Eastern Studies and History of Science from Columbia University before she realized that television is much better than studying.
