ABC Reframes Tuesday Night: The Rookie Moves to Mondays as RJ Decker Debuts

ABC reshuffles its schedule: The Rookie shifts from Tuesday to Mondays at 10 PM starting Jan. 26, following Idol, while Scott Speedman’s new drama RJ Decker will premiere March 3 in The Rookie’s former Tuesday slot. The move aims to leverage Idol’s strong lead-in and streaming momentum, with The Rookie posting a robust Season 8 premiere (7.88M in MP+3 and top streaming/social metrics) and RJ Decker set as a South Florida-based private-investigator series produced by 20th TV. The changes are designed to sustain originals through midseason and Olympic coverage.

"Jon Stewart's Return: Revamping Talk TV for the 2024 Election"

Jon Stewart, Rachel Maddow, and Jen Psaki are part of a new Monday-only TV scheduling experiment by Comedy Central and MSNBC, aiming to boost attention and ad revenue. Stewart will host "The Daily Show" once a week for the 2024 election cycle, while Maddow and Psaki make bespoke Monday appearances. The move comes as networks seek to capitalize on Monday's high viewership and attract new audiences. While there are signs of increased ad spending and viewership on Mondays, it remains to be seen if this strategy will translate to sustained growth across the rest of the week.
