CBS Fall Premiere Dates: The Big Bang Theory, NCIS & MORE!!!

CBS has lifted the lid on its Fall premiere dates surprisingly early. 

The eye network seems to be sticking to the standard premiere week window to launch its Fall schedule. 

As most of us already knew, The Big Bang Theory is returning to Mondays for a few weeks as Thursday Night Football will be taking over, well, Thursday nights. 

The network is using The Big Bang Theory's season premiere as the lead-in to a special episode of Young Sheldon. 

After that, Young Sheldon will be off the air until it moves to Thursdays with its parent series on November 2. 

It's an odd way of doing things, but if the episode is that good, it will likely have people clamoring for more and talking about it. 

Madam Secretary, Superior Donuts, Mom, Life in Pieces and S.W.A.T. all debut in October, missing out on premiere week openers.
