ABC Announces 2014 Split Season Premiere Dates

Paul Lee, president, ABC Entertainment Group, today announced the premiere dates for new midseason series RESURRECTION and THE QUEST, along with spring premiere dates for key returning series, now structured into split seasons to allow for fewer or no preemptions or repeats.

New drama RESURRECTION will premiere on Sunday, March 9 at 10:00 p.m., ET, taking over the timeslot for BETRAYAL when that show's season concludes. New alternative series THE QUEST will debut on Thursday, January 2 with a special two-hour premiere from 8:00-10:00 p.m. ET, moving into the timeslot held by ONCE UPON A TIME IN WONDERLAND, following its season finale.

Continuing the network's commitment to the split season strategy announced at this year's Upfront presentation, key returning series GREY'S ANATOMY, NASHVILLE, ONCE UPON A TIME, REVENGE and SCANDAL will return in the spring, following their winter finales, with all new episodes that will run with few or no repeats to their season finales in May.
