The 1995–96 daytime network television schedule for the six major English-language commercial broadcast networks in the United States covers the weekday and weekend daytime hours from September 1995 to August 1996. The schedule is followed by a list per network of returning series, new series, and series canceled after the 1995–96 season. This was the first season in which The WB and UPN – which both launched in mid-January of that year – offered daytime programming, composed entirely of children's programming blocks on the respective networks: The WB aired its Kids' WB block on weekday afternoons and Saturday mornings, while UPN aired the hour-long UPN Kids block on Sunday mornings. Affiliates fill time periods not occupied by network programs with local or syndicated programming. PBS – which offers daytime programming through a children's program block, branded as PTV at the time – is not included, as its member television stations have local flexibility over most of their schedules and broadcast times for network shows may vary.
