You’re not talking to Sky Customer Services on here as this is a customer based forum where customers try to help other customers. 

If you have a look on the Geektown website you can sign up for free emails when new series start. The emails are received 7-10 days before the first episode airs. I think the Chicago's just say sometime in March at the moment. 

I've set up for emails on 5 out of the 7 you've listed but nothing received yet.

I know this is not sky customer service. There is nothing on geektown. By putting this here I am making sky aware that people want to know. Maybe then they will be more open in general. Other TV providers  release their schedules  month in advance. Sky have the rights to all thes programs but fill prime time with repeats. If customers do not have these discussions and ask sky to be more open nothing will ever change.

For these types of shows Sky have never broadcast them at the same time as the  US. The seasons have always started later so that Sky can show the episodes weekly without any gaps in the run. In the US most shows have runs where they show new episodes or 4-6 weeks before the show takes a week or two off.

 

Also worth noting all these shows would have been affected by the strikes last autumn so have only just started airing with shorten seasons. Wouldn't surprise me if some of these shows are spread out across the Sky channels over the spring and summer to ensure there is quite a bit of new content to be aired throughout the next several months to fill the schedules. 

Typcially Sky don't normally announce or start airing ads for the returning shows until about 2-3 weeks before they will start airing so you may see ads and announcements in early March for shows that will start at the end of March/beginning of April.

I don't think 911 is on Sky anymore?

Indeed from season 6 it moved over to Disney + in the uk having the first run rights. Along with quite a few other shows that were previously on Sky Witness.

They should really pick up newer shows , Tracker would of been suitable but that's Disney owned so unlikely

 

The final 13 episode season of SWAT is 24th March at 9pm.

Sky in Germany are airing The Rookie at the same time as the US , I

Looks like it's more likely to April or later here, it's only 10 episodes due to the strikes.

SWAT only aired episode 1 of the new series in the US last week - The Rookie hasn't aired episode 1 yet.

 

Last time around Sky were about twelve months behind - this time the US is running about six months late. So could be a while yet.

FBIs return to UK in March according to Geektown who get advance press releases. 

Hopefully news on others soon. Seems strange Rookie not doing the same in UK as it is in Germany.

As for those moving to Disney+, they have been known to release new episodes without any press release at all.
