Analysis: With the news that Scandal is being held for midseason and has an episode order of 16 episodes, TGIT is going to look a heck of a lot different. My suggestion: put Secrets & Lies at the 9pm hour until the winter time.
For Tuesday, I had to move Modern Family, because at some point, Tuesdays need to be fixed.

I thought about keeping Jane the Virgin for a third time on Mondays, then I realized something was amiss. The reason why I demoted the Crazy Ex and Jane the Virgin combo to Fridays is that ratings are too low for Mondays and it will probably anger the affiliates if they remained. On Fridays, the expectations are lower. Not to mention, those shows need to air in fall for awards consideration. Last time I checked, awards can be earned on Fridays. Not all shows will be receiving full season orders. This schedule I am proposing is not too terrible. One new show for fall due to schedule space. The only downside to this is that DC's Legends of Tomorrow will be facing football. Also, the possibility of the CW cleaning house leaves me to leave The 100 unscheduled.

Honestly, this is not the best schedule for me to come up with. My guess is that it will be more of the low rated Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday lineups.

Grimm's episode order will be thirteen episodes. I decided to demote it to midseason. The Carmichael Show may probably need to go back to being a summer comedy. The jury is still out for new shows.
Overall, I think that these schedules are okay for this fall, but I am not confident on them by any means. I won't be surprised if my predictions turn out to be incorrect.
Any suggestions?
