Fall 2009 reality TV show debut schedule

The fall television season is almost upon us, not that the weather has relented. Some cable networks already debuting shows that will carry us through Thanksgiving, and networks are getting ready to give us what we expect from them in the fall, with a few changes.

The following is a list of debut dates for new and returning reality series. For shows that premiered before Aug. 19, see the summer 2009 reality TV schedule. And the first TV broadcasts of documentaries are in the 2009 TV documentary schedule.

Times listed are ET, although as always, networks sometimes change their week-to-week schedules. For up-to-date news on more popular shows, click the [news] link that follows it.
