Making its highly anticipated return for a 57th season, 60 MINUTES will premiere Sunday at 7:30 PM, ET/7:00 PM, PT immediately following an NFL doubleheader on the CBS Television Network and Paramount+.*
After 50 consecutive years as America’s #1 news program, the award-winning CBS newsmagazine will return with original episodes, including six 90-minute broadcasts and a Monday night primetime election special. In addition, the franchise is expanding to more platforms with a free, ad-supported streaming TV (FAST) channel, launching today, and an original audio series, 60 MINUTES: A SECOND LOOK, beginning next week.
“This season will feature more 60 MINUTES than ever before. Across every platform, we’re offering more opportunities for viewers to engage with our stories and inviting new audiences to experience the journalism and storytelling that defines us,” said Bill Owens, executive producer of 60 MINUTES. “Our goal is always to deepen the viewer’s understanding of the world, and the best 60 MINUTES stories reveal something new or take viewers on unforgettable journeys. We are excited to share our reporting and bring these adventures to even more people, wherever and whenever they choose to watch or listen.”
The 57th season premiere of 60 MINUTES on Sunday, Sept. 15 will feature Scott Pelley’s interviews with some of the people at the center of the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, including the first sit-down TV interview with top prosecutor U.S. attorney Matthew Graves; Cecilia Vega’s report on the growing tensions between China and the Philippines over territory in the South China Sea and how it could lead to U.S. involvement; and Anderson Cooper’s interview with pop star Dua Lipa about her journey from unknown singer to international sensation.
A special primetime Monday night edition of 60 MINUTES will air Monday, Oct. 7 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET) on CBS and Paramount+, featuring the latest reporting on both the Republican and Democratic presidential tickets.
