ABC midseason 2019 schedule sees shakeup for TGIT and more
ABC has released its midseason 2019 schedule and there is certainly a shakeup. A Million Little Things becomes part of TGIT and Dancing With the Stars is held off. Here’s the full schedule.
The ABC midseason 2019 schedule is out. While the big staple shows are pretty much in their usual place, there are some major shakeups in other locations. A Million Little Things, Dancing with the Stars, and Station 19 are among the list of changes.
It’s worth starting with A Million Little Things, which has been a quiet success for the network. As Deadline reports, the show has remained steady in the ratings since Episode 2 but has seen a solid success in the delayed ratings. Whenever the show isn’t on, there are plenty of people disappointed.

Dancing with the Stars isn’t getting a 28th season just yet. For the first time in what feels like ever, the show isn’t airing a midseason series, following on from a controversial Season 27. That does open up more time for scripted shows, which is important considering ABC has Whiskey Cavalier and Schooled among its list of midseason freshmen.
Shonda Rhimes’ Station 19‘s return is getting pushed to the spring, with For the People Season 2 premiering around the same time to make it more of a summer show. This could help keep the legal drama on the air a little longer after a lackluster first season.
Tuesday nights are remaining stable, along with Grey’s Anatomy keeping its Thursday night slot. Apart from A Million Little Things, Wednesday nights are also remaining stable.
