Fox 2024 Midseason Premiere Dates: Here's When Animal Control, The Cleaning Lady, and More Return

Fox announced its 2024 midseason premiere dates following the ends of the writers and actors strikes, and while the network's live-action scripted fare will take a while to return, most of its animated and reality series will be back before Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. 

Things begin on Jan. 2 with the returns of Celebrity Name That Tune and Extended Family, followed the next day by a new season of I Can See your Voice and the series premiere of We Are Family. A special preview of Jon Hamm's new animated series Grimsburg will air on Jan. 7 before it settles into its regular time period on Feb. 18.

It won't be until March that viewers will get new seasons of Animal Control, The Cleaning Lady, and Alert: Missing Persons Unit, with the latter two airing back-to-back on Tuesday, March 5. As for Fox's most-watched drama, 9-1-1: Lone Star, it's going to be an even longer wait. Season 5 has been pushed back to fall 2024 to help launch upcoming new series Doc and Rescue: Hi-Surf, which were supposed to premiere this season but were delayed because of the strikes.

More TV schedules:

• CBS midseason 2024 return dates: FBI, NCIS, and more
• ABC's midseason schedule: Premiere dates for Grey's Anatomy and more
• NBC return dates: When Chicago Fire, Law & Order, and more return
