ABC has today announced spring premiere dates for the original drama series Rebel starring Katey Sagal and the original comedy series Home Economics starring Topher Grace.
The broadcast network has first made an adjustment to the return dates of its Thursday scripted lineup. Station 19, Grey's Anatomy and A Million Little Things will return on Thursday, March 11 - a one week delay from when they were originally set to continue their current seasons. Moreover, A Million Little Things will be moving to a new night starting Wednesday, April 7 at 10/9c. in order to create a full night of programming on Thursdays from showrunner Krista Vernoff.
Comedy Home Economics will premiere on Wednesday, April 7 at 9:30/8:30c. - following a new episode of The Conners and leading into the nightly debut of A Million Little Things.
