These are the late night schedules for the four United States broadcast networks that offer programming during this time period, from September 2000 to August 2001. All times are Eastern or Pacific. Affiliates will fill non-network schedule with local, syndicated, or paid programming. Affiliates also have the option to preempt or delay network programming at their discretion.
