The 1999–2000 network television schedule for the six major English language commercial broadcast networks in the United States covers primetime hours from September 1999 through August 2000.
The schedule is followed by a list per network of returning series, new series, and series cancelled after the 1998–99 season.
PBS is not included; member stations have local flexibility over most of their schedules and broadcast times for network shows may vary. Also not included are stations affiliated with Pax TV; although Pax carried a limited schedule of first-run programs, its schedule otherwise was composed mainly of syndicated reruns.
New series highlighted in bold.
All times are U.S. Eastern and Pacific Time (except for some live sports or events). Subtract for one hour for Central, Mountain, Alaska and Hawaii-Aleutian times.
Each of the 30 highest-rated shows is listed with its rank and rating as determined by Nielsen Media Research.
