The 1947-48 United States network television schedule is nominally from September of 1947 to the spring of 1948, but scheduling ideas were still being worked out and did not follow modern standards.

Only NBC and DuMont had networks and coaxial cable connections were only available for a few cities on the east coast. Most other parts of the United States created local programs or broadcast film programs.

There was only slightly more than a dozen television stations in operation at the end of 1947, but about 30 more stations began broadcasting during 1948.

New fall series are highlighted in bold. However, as network programming was still in its infancy and in a state of flux, all the new fall series below for this season began in November and December.
