The CW has announced its fall 2024 TV schedule and premiere dates, and with Riverdale over (and may it rest in peace), the network has lost its most reliable chaos agent. But at least the network — which is still undergoing massive changes under its new Nexstar ownership — now has room for the new limited series Joan, in which Sophie Turner stars as a British diamond thief. (This is vaguely reminiscent of the inexplicable Riverdale-Uncut Gems crossover...) Joan will premiere on Wednesday, Oct. 2 at 9/8c, right after new episodes of the returning CW series Sullivan's Crossing.

Also returning in the fall is the Tyler Hoechlin-Elizabeth Tulloch series Superman & Lois, which heads into its fourth and final season beginning Thursday, Oct. 17 at 8/7c. It will be the lead-in for the Librarians sequel series, The Librarians: The Next Chapter, which, for anyone unfamiliar with the original TNT series, is about time-traveling librarians.

More TV schedules:

On Mondays starting Oct. 7, the network will air two new unscripted shows based on board games: Trivial Pursuit, hosted by Levar Burton, and Scrabble, hosted by Raven-Symoné. The CW's new love of sports programming continues Saturday, with its most recent pickup of Pac-12 college football (or whatever is left of it, anyway) joining NASCAR and ACC college football. 

All American has been renewed for Season 7 and will return sometime in 2025, as will Wild Cards, which was renewed for a second season. Meanwhile, All American's college-set spin-off All American: Homecoming has been canceled and will air its final season this summer. Walker, The Spencer Sisters, Run the Burbs, and Everybody Burns have also been canceled.

New CW dramas premiering at midseason are Leighton Meester's new procedural Good Cop/Bad Cop and the David Thewlis-starring mystery series Sherlock & Daughter.
