The Bachelorette has already been announced for Summer and Fall seasons, so it is happening. Rebel and American Housewife got canceled.

Before that Queens show got a series order, I was going to state that I would do the same Fall 2021 schedule CatsRule initially proposed (aside from cancellations already confirmed after it was posted), except have The Good Doctor finally move to Tuesdays (which would mean going up against New Amsterdam), swapping nights with Big Sky, and announce final season for The Goldbergs after George Segal died last March.

Also, why Summer AND Fall seasons for The Bachelorette this year? That'll just be too much. Always a perfect way to waste space for scripted programs.

It should be noted that Black-Ish and The Goldbergs can be considered very, very lucky for getting to produce full 20-plus episode seasons during the COVID-Pandemic-hindered 2020-21 U.S. Broadcast TV season (Black-Ish has 21, The Goldbergs has 22).

Also, The Blacklist (over on NBC) will also end up at 22 episodes for its current season, according to The Futon Critic. But unlike The Goldbergs and Black-Ish, The Blacklist's current season will spill into June (its season finale doesn't air until June 23rd, outside of its regular Friday slot). I thought The Blacklist was going to end at just 18 episodes because of COVID safety protocols adding to shows' production costs.
