ABC is pushing the premieres of “Celebrity Wheel of Fortune,” “Press Your Luck” and ABC News’ “Scamanda” back to 2025 as it adds six simulcast NFL games to its fall schedule.
The new ABC/ESPN simulcasts, which will air at 8:15 p.m. ET, include the Bills facing off against the Jets on Oct. 14, the Ravens against the Buccaneers on Oct. 21, the Buccaneers against the Chiefs on Nov. 4, the Texans vs. the Cowboys on Nov. 18, The Ravens against the Chargers on Nov. 25 and the Saints vs. the Packers on Dec. 23.
The decision, which was made in conjunction with the league and is just for the 2024-25 season, is designed to lean into the cross-promotional opportunities and maximize the reach of NFL programming across Disney’s ecosystem.
