Fox has officially revealed its Fall 2025 TV schedule, becoming the third broadcast network—following CBS and NBC—to unveil its programming lineup for the upcoming television season. From returning favorites and exciting newcomers to midseason surprises and shows still awaiting renewal, here’s everything you need to know about what’s airing on Fox this fall.
A Slimmer Scripted Lineup for Fall
Unlike last year’s lineup, which featured three nights of scripted television, Fox is scaling back for Fall 2025. This season, viewers can expect fresh scripted content only on Sunday and Tuesday nights. Sunday remains home to Fox’s beloved animated block, while Tuesday introduces two intriguing new dramas.

What's New and Noteworthy?
🎭 Murder in a Small Town & Doc
These two live-action dramas are Fox’s only new scripted fare this fall, anchoring Tuesday nights with suspense and heart.
🧠 Celebrity Weakest Link
In a twist no one saw coming, Weakest Link jumps networks from NBC to Fox for an all-celebrity edition airing Mondays at 9 PM. This strategic acquisition adds a nostalgic game show punch to the week.
🧪 Midseason Surprises
While fall remains relatively lean, Fox is stocking its bench with a variety of midseason series:
Best Medicine – A one-hour comedy starring Josh Charles, set to pair with Doc.
Memory of a Killer – A high-stakes thriller based on the Belgian film De Zaak Alzheimer, centered on a hitman battling early-onset Alzheimer’s.
Fear Factor: The Next Chapter – A bold reboot of the early-2000s NBC competition series, promising a bigger, bolder, and more daring edition.
Held for Midseason: What’s Not Coming Just Yet
Fox is saving plenty of firepower for 2026, including returning shows and new entries like:

Renewal Status: What’s Still Up in the Air?
While Fox has locked in much of its lineup, some series remain in limbo:
The Cleaning Lady and Alert: Missing Persons Unit – Awaiting renewal, pending performance of their current seasons.
Accused – As an anthology series with a rotating cast, it operates on a different timetable and isn't bound by traditional renewal cycles.
Farmer Wants a Wife and The Great North – Fate yet to be determined.
Fox’s 2025 Fall TV schedule reflects a more focused, event-driven strategy, with fewer scripted nights and a heavy reliance on reality, sports, and animation. With big swings like the network-hopping Celebrity Weakest Link and midseason’s Fear Factor: The Next Chapter, Fox is betting on familiarity with a twist. Whether this streamlined lineup will resonate with viewers remains to be seen—but one thing's clear: Fox is keeping us guessing.
Stay tuned for updates as renewal decisions roll in and midseason premieres approach.
