At long last, March is over and April has arrived!

As someone born in April, I’m thrilled! As someone who covers network television, I’m sad, because April kicks off hiatuses for a number of beloved broadcast TV shows. If you’re here, you’re likely wondering if 9-1-1 and 9-1-1: Nashville‘s schedules are impacted…

For those who need a refresher, ABC’s hit first responder dramas delivered two eventful episodes last week. 9-1-1‘s “Where There’s Smoke” saw the team work together to understand a series of complex calls, and get through a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. Then it ended with another kind of mystery call… Meanwhile, 9-1-1: Nashville‘s “Love To Death” featured a villainous turn from Real Housewives of Beverly Hills OG Kyle Richards.

Naturally, we need to see what happens next in the 9-1-1 universe ASAP. But if you head to ABC on Thursday, April 9 (or Hulu on April 10), will you be able to catch new episodes of 9-1-1 and 9-1-1: Nashville? We’ve got answers!

Is 9-1-1 on tonight? Is 9-1-1: Nashville on tonight? When do 9-1-1 and 9-1-1: Nashville return with new episodes on ABC? How many episodes are in 9-1-1 Season 9 and 9-1-1: Nashville Season 1? When do the 9-1-1 and 9-1-1: Nashville finales premiere on ABC? And will there be a 9-1-1 Season 10 and 9-1-1: Nashville Season 2? Here’s everything we know.

Are 9-1-1 and 9-1-1: Nashville New Tonight (April 9, 2026)?

Sadly, no. If you tune in to ABC on Thursday, April 9, you can watch reruns of R.J. Decker‘s first three episodes instead.

When Do 9-1-1 and 9-1-1: Nashville Return With New Episodes?

Both 9-1-1 and 9-1-1: Nashville are on hiatus for the next few weeks. The two shows return with new episodes on Thursday, April 30, 2026.

When Is 9-1-1‘s Season 9 Finale? And When Is 9-1-1: Nashville‘s Finale?

Both 9-1-1 and 9-1-1: Nashville air new episodes on Thursday, April 30, and their season finales will air the following week on Thursday, May 7.

Will There Be A 9-1-1 Season 10? And Will There Be A 9-1-1: Nasvhille Season 2?

You bet! The 9-1-1-verse is still going strong. On March 5, ABC renewed both 9-1-1 series. So although the current seasons are ending, rest easy knowing we haven’t seen the last of the 118 or the 113.

How To Watch 9-1-1 And 9-1-1: Nashville Live On ABC:
