Schedule
[edit]- All times correspond to U.S. Eastern and Pacific Time scheduling (except for some live sports or events). Except where affiliates slot certain programs outside their network-dictated timeslots, subtract one hour for Central, Mountain, Alaska, and Hawaii-Aleutian times.
- Local schedules may differ, as affiliates have the option to pre-empt or delay network programs. Such scheduling may be limited to preemptions caused by local or national breaking news or weather coverage (which may force stations to tape delay certain programs to other timeslots) and any major sports events scheduled to air in a weekday timeslot (mainly during major holidays). Stations may air shows at other times at their preference.

Notes:
- During the two weeks that the 1984 Summer Olympics was broadcast on ABC, all regular programming was pre-empted except for 40-minute versions of All My Children, One Life to Live, and General Hospital, which ran from July 30 through August 3 from 2 pm ET/11 am PT to 4 pm ET/1 pm PT and August 6 through August 10 from 1 pm ET/10 am PT to 3 pm ET/12 noon PT.
- The New Newlywed Game aired on ABC from February 13 to 17, 1984 at 11:00AM EST. Hosted by Jim Lange, it was a test week of shows to see if a daytime version of Newlywed Game might be feasible for ABC. The series did re-emerge eighteen months later in syndication with Bob Eubanks hosting again; he couldn't host the February 1984 week of shows because he was hosting Dream House on NBC at the time.
