Fox Bets Baywatch and Unscripted Fare as Fall 2026 Schedule Skews Scripted-Light

TL;DR Summary
Fox's Fall 2026 schedule leans into reality and unscripted fare with only two scripted nights, pushing most new dramas to midseason; the Baywatch revival leads midseason alongside The Interrogator, Memory of a Killer S2 and Murder in a Small Town S3, while Sundays pair The Simpsons with Animal Control and Grimsburg. Tuesdays feature Best Medicine and Doc; Fox aims to add a second drama night in midseason and has renewals in place, signaling a shift away from heavy comedy development and a focus on production models geared to unscripted/drama.
