ABC is shaking up its fall lineup to make room for more Monday Night Football. The network has added six more simulcasts, for a total of 17 games in 2024, including three exclusives, 14 simulcasts, and playoffs.

According to Deadline, the network has delayed the returns of Celebrity Wheel of Fortune (season five) and Press for Luck (season six), as well as the series premiere of ABC News’ Scamanda series, until early 2025.

Current Monday night resident What Would You Do? is moving to Wednesday nights effective immediately.

The fifth season of Celebrity Wheel of Fortune will be the last chance for viewers to see Pat Sajak host the game (episodes were filmed before he left the syndicated version).

While viewers will have to wait for the regular season of Press Your Luck, the network is airing a special Halloween-themed episode on October 27th.

10:00-11:00 p.m. EDT – Press Your Luck: “Halloween Spooktacular” (607) It’s time for the WHAMMY to deliver a few more tricks than treats as host Elizabeth Banks and the contestants scare up some big bucks.

The new premiere dates for Celebrity Wheel of Fortune, Press Your Luck, and Scamanda will be announced later.

What do you think? Do you plan to watch more Monday Night Football this fall? Are you disappointed by the delays of the three shows?
