Two seasons into its run on the network, ABC is expanding the 9-1-1 franchise. With its first spinoff ending its run just weeks ago on Fox, 9-1-1 will now launch its first spinoff on ABC, with another southern-set spinoff set in Nashville, Tennessee. It's third Ryan Murphy show in as many seasons to join ABC's lineup, after 9-1-1 premiered in the 2023-24 season and Doctor Odyssey premiered in the 2024-25 season. 9-1-1 is one of the highest-rated series on ABC, narrowly trailing Shifting Gears and Will Trent in the 18-49 season average. No cast has been announced yet for 9-1-1: Nashville, though development of a new 9-1-1 spinoff has long been discussed, with Hawaii named as a potential spinoff before ABC finally settled on Nashville as the settling.
