2008–09 United States network television schedule (daytime)

The 2008–09 daytime network television schedule for four of the five major English-language commercial broadcast networks in the United States covers the weekday daytime hours from September 2008 to August 2009. The schedule is followed by a list per network of returning series, and any series canceled after the 2007–08 season.

Affiliates fill time periods not occupied by network programs with local or syndicated programming. PBS – which offers daytime programming through a children's program block, PBS Kids – is not included, as its member television stations have local flexibility over most of their schedules and broadcast times for network shows may vary. Also not included are stations affiliated with Fox or MyNetworkTV, as neither network offers (and continues not to offer) a daytime network schedule or network news, and Ion Television, as its schedule was composed mainly of paid programming and syndicated reruns at the time.

Legend

Light yellow indicates talk shows.
Green indicates soap operas.
Pink indicates game shows.

Gray indicates encore programming (e.g., reruns of prime-time programming).
Light blue indicates other programs not applicable to the above categorizations.

New series are highlighted in bold.

Schedule

All times correspond to U.S. Eastern and Pacific Time scheduling (except for some live sports or events). Except where affiliates slot certain programs outside their network-dictated timeslots, subtract one hour for Central, Mountain, Alaska, and Hawaii-Aleutian times.
Local schedules may differ, as affiliates have the option to pre-empt or delay network programs.[1] Such scheduling may be limited to preemptions caused by local or national breaking news or weather coverage (which may force stations to tape delay certain programs in overnight timeslots or defer them to a co-operated station or digital subchannel in their regular timeslot) and any major sports events scheduled to air in a weekday timeslot (mainly during major holidays). Stations may air shows at other times at their preference.
