Global

Global’s fall prime-time schedule hasn’t changed much since the plan presented at the upfronts in June, with the exception of a shuffle on Friday nights. The net had originally programmed the 8-11 pm block with Friday Night Lights leading in to Las Vegas, followed by Numb3rs. Now, Numb3rs will kick off Friday prime time at 8 pm, followed by Friday Night Lights at 9 pm and Las Vegas at 10 pm.

Here’s what the fall season’s prime time on Global looks like now (with new series in caps):

Monday: Prison Break – 8 pm beginning Sept. 17; Heroes – 9 pm beginning Sept. 24; JOURNEYMAN – 10 pm beginning Sept. 24.
