Fox Winter 2027 Schedule: Baywatch, The Interrogator Dates

Fox announced its winter 2027 premiere dates on November 11, 2026, and the schedule leans hard on two things: a reboot of a global franchise and a new procedural built around Stephen Fry. Everything else is returning shows slotted around them.

The full list is below, followed by what each entry actually is and one gap worth noting.

The complete schedule

All times Eastern and Pacific.

Baywatch, without the Hoff

The new Baywatch stars Stephen Amell as Hobie Buchannon, the son of David Hasselhoff’s Mitch Buchannon, and follows him running a new generation of lifeguards on the Southern California coast. Fox’s release names Amell and the January 6 slot; press coverage of the announcement adds familiar faces from the original run, including David Chokachi returning as Cody Madison, with Erika Eleniak, Michael Bergin and Kelly Packard also reported in the cast.

It gets the 9 p.m. Wednesday slot behind the 15th season of The Masked Singer, which is about as strong a lead-in as Fox has left.

The Interrogator

Stephen Fry plays a former MI6 agent who uses unconventional psychological techniques to work inside the minds of dangerous criminals. Jenna Elfman and Michael Beach co-star. The show takes over the Tuesday 8 p.m. slot once Best Medicine finishes its second season, which TVLine reports is a 14-episode order, and leads into Doc at 9 p.m.

That is a deliberate pairing: a new procedural inheriting the audience of an established medical drama, then handing back to another one.

What is missing

Fox did not announce return dates for its animated Sunday block. American Dad!, Bob’s Burgers, Family Guy and Krapopolis are all absent from the winter schedule, and TVLine reports their dates have yet to be announced. If you watch Fox mainly for animation, this announcement does not answer your question.

How this compares with the rest of winter

Fox is staggering its launches rather than dumping everything in one week: two premieres in early January, a two-hour event the day after, then nothing new until February. That spreads marketing spend and gives each show a clearer window.

For the streaming side of the same period, our guide to The Chosen season 6 on Prime Video covers the weekly release pattern, and The End of Oak Street on HBO Max is the film counter-programming to watch for in the same weeks.

What we did not do

We did not watch any of these shows and we have no early screeners. Dates, times and the two new-series descriptions come from Fox’s November 11 press release; the additional cast names and the 14-episode order for Best Medicine come from published coverage of that release, and we have labelled them as such. Episode counts beyond those reported details have not been confirmed by Fox.
