The 1948-49 United States network television schedule began in September of 1948 and ended in the spring of 1949.

The schedule below reflects the fall lineup as it all settled into place throughout October 1948, before any subsequent time changes were made and additional new series appeared in November.

New fall series are highlighted in bold. A number of ABC's new fall shows began as early as mid-August, when the network first began broadcasting a seven-night schedule. CBS and Du Mont also had some new shows begin in the latter half of August. These shows are noted as such by (Aug.).
