Template:Short description Template:Use mdy dates Template:USTV The 1993–94 network television schedule for the four major English language commercial broadcast networks in the United States covers the primetime hours from September 1993 through August 1994. The schedule is followed by a list per network of returning series, new series, and series cancelled after the 1992–93 season.

PBS is not included; member stations have local flexibility over most of their schedules and broadcasts times for network shows may vary.

Each of the 30 highest-rated shows released in May 1994 is listed with its rank and rating as determined by Nielsen Media Research.[1]

This is the first full season in which Fox had primetime programming all seven nights of the week

Beginning this season, a majority of primetime programs were broadcast in stereo or surround sound.

New series are highlighted in bold.

Repeat airings or same-day rebroadcasts are indicated by (R)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters"..

All times are U.S. Eastern and Pacific Time (except for some live sports or events). Subtract one hour for Central, Mountain, Alaska and Hawaii–Aleutian times.

All sporting events air live in all time zones in U.S. Eastern time, with local and/or late-night programming scheduled by affiliates after game completion.

Note: From February 12 to 27, 1994, all of CBS' primetime programming was preempted in favor of coverage of the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer.
