NEW YORK CITY – May 13, 2012 – NBC announced today an ambitious new primetime lineup for the 2012-13 primetime season that combines one of the top-quality returning lineups on television with a new fall edition of the red-hot musical competition “The Voice” and a crop of six new scripted series in the fall and four at mid-season.

Abrams and Dick Wolf on Monday and Wednesday nights, respectively.

New Comedies



“Go On” -- Misery loves company. Unless you’re sportscaster Ryan King (Matthew Perry, “Friends,” “Mr. Sunshine”) who thinks misery should just be left alone. After taking some time off, Ryan – who recently lost his wife in a car accident – is now ready to get back to work. And while he seems like his same old charming, cocky self, his boss won’t set him back on the air until he seeks counseling. So, Ryan reluctantly joins a support group with one goal in mind: get in, get out and get back on the radio as quickly as possible. Played by the fast-talking, sarcastic, and charismatic Perry, Ryan gives grief a real run for its money. Within one day of group therapy, he hijacks the meeting and suddenly the downtrodden are cajoled into playing a game of “who’s got the best sob story?” And in no time all of them are battling it out, trying to one-up each other’s despair. Now, this is fun! Ryan’s total lack of interest in healing might be just what this group needs – and maybe, exactly what he needs to move on with his life. Also starring are Tony winner Laura Benanti (“The Playboy Club”), Julie White (“Transformers”), Suzy Nakamura (“Dodgeball”), Khary Payton (“General Hospital”) and Allison Miller (“Terra Nova”). From the Emmy-winning writer and executive producer Scott Silveri (“Perfect Couples,” “Friends”) comes a new series that proves grief can be good. Todd Holland (“Malcolm in the Middle”) and Karey Burke (“Free Agents,” “Miss/Guided”) also serve as executive producers. The pilot was directed by Holland. “Go On” is a production of Universal Television, Dark Toy Entertainment and Silver & Gold Productions.

“The New Normal” -- These days, families come in all forms – single dads, double moms, sperm donors, egg donors, one-night-stand donors… It’s 2012 and anything goes. Bryan (Andrew Rannells, “Girls,” “The Book of Mormon”) and David (Justin Bartha, “The Hangover”) are a Beverly Hills couple and they have it all. Well, almost. With successful careers and a committed and loving partnership, the one thing missing is a baby. And just when they think the stars will never align, enter Goldie (Georgia King, “One Day”), an extraordinary young woman with a checkered past. A Midwestern waitress and single mother looking to escape her dead-end life and small-minded grandmother (Ellen Barkin, “Ocean’s Thirteen”), Goldie decides to change everything and move to L.A. with her precocious 8-year-old daughter. Desperate and broke – but also fertile – Goldie quickly becomes the guys’ surrogate and quite possibly the girl of their dreams. Surrogate mother, surrogate family. “The New Normal” is produced by 20th Century Fox Television and Ryan Murphy Productions. Murphy serves as creator/executive producer and director along with executive producer/creator/writer Ali Adler (“Glee,” “Chuck”) and executive producer Dante Di Loreto (“Glee,” “American Horror Story”).

“Animal Practice” -- Meet Dr. George Coleman (Justin Kirk, “Weeds”), a top-dog New York veterinarian. With an unorthodox style of operating, George’s success comes from his undeniable gift with animals of all kinds. That is, all but the human kind. Dorothy Crane once held the key to George’s heart, but today she also holds the key to the family business as she takes over Crane Animal Hospital. Not only is she George’s new boss, but her romantic history with him and her lack of experience with animals is seriously cramping his style. Dorothy is whip-smart and ambitious, and she’s going to make George pay for the past. Needless to say, he’s determined not to make any changes in his (animal) kingdom -- which includes poker games with a resident capuchin monkey. Also starring are Tyler Labine (“Reaper,” “Sons of Tucson”) as Dr. Doug Jackson, a vet who's great with animals but hapless in matters of the heart, Bobby Lee (“Harold & Kumar”) as Dr. Yamamoto, and newcomer Betsy Sodaro as Angela. “Animal Practice” is a production of Universal Television and American Work Inc. The executive producers are Scot Armstrong (“The Hangover Part II,” “Old School”) and Ravi Nandan (“Best Friends Forever”) of American Work Inc. ("Best Friends Forever") along with Emmy Award winners Joe & Anthony Russo (“Community,” “Arrested Development”). “Animal Practice” was written by Brian Gatewood and Alessandro Tanaka ("The Sitter"), who also serve as executive producers. Gail Lerner (“Happy Endings”) also is an executive producer. Directed by the Emmy-winning Russo brothers, “Animal Practice” is a comedy where the animals are running the asylum.

“Guys with Kids” -- From Emmy winner and executive producer Jimmy Fallon comes a new comedy about three thirty-something dads trying to hold on to their youth, while holding onto their new babies’ hands. Easy, right? Thankfully, Chris (Jesse Bradford, “The West Wing”), Nick (Zach Cregger, “Friends with Benefits”) and Gary (Anthony Anderson, “Law & Order”) have each other to help navigate their survival as new dads, while still trying desperately to remain dudes. Balancing work or staying at home, painfully married or happily divorced, they know that taking care of the little ones while maintaining a social life is a daily challenge. Whether it’s hosing the little squirt down in the kitchen sink or hitting the bar strapped with a baby björn, these guys are on a roller-coaster adventure – parenting like you (and they) have never seen before. Also starring are Emily (Jamie Lynn Sigler, “The Sopranos”) and Tempestt Bledsoe (“The Cosby Show”). Someone once said it is much easier to become a father than to be one. These three guys are about to find out just how true that is. “Guys with Kids” is produced by Universal Television and Holiday Road. Fallon (“Late Night with Jimmy Fallon”) serves as executive producer/creator along with executive producer/creator/writer Charlie Grandy (NBC’s “The Office”) and executive producer/creator Amy Ozols (“Late Night with Jimmy Fallon”) as well as executive producers Rick Wiener and Kenny Schwartz (“Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place,” “American Dad”). Emmy-nominated director Scott Ellis (“Modern Family,” “30 Rock”) is the director.

“Save Me” -- Welcome to the Midwestern suburbs, where exciting things never happen. Well, almost never. After a near-death experience (choking on a hero sandwich), Beth (Emmy nominee Anne Heche, “Hung”) is revived only to realize she now has a direct line to God. Of course, her husband Tom (Michael Landes, “Final Destination 2”) is skeptical and dismissive – and his mistress (Alexandra Breckenridge, “American Horror Story”) is stunned to learn that her lover’s wife is now a prophet! But when inexplicable things begin to happen, everyone’s beliefs are tested. Beth starts to say and do things that shock her family and entrance her friends, but she isn’t going to be your typical “fire and brimstone” prophet. Let’s just say, if God had a desperate housewife as His mouthpiece, Beth would be it! She is the absolute last person on Earth who would be chosen. Then again, they say He works in mysterious ways. And this one is a real mystery! Heather Burns (“Bored to Death”) and Madison Davenport (“Shameless”) also star. “Save Me” is produced by Sony Pictures Television and Original Film. Novelist John Scott Shepherd (“Henry’s List of Wrongs,” “The Days”) is executive producer/creator along with executive producer/director Scott Winant (“Breaking Bad,” “True Blood,” “Californication”) and executive producers Neal H. Moritz (“The Big C,” “Prison Break,” “Fast Five”), Vivian Cannon (“The Big C”) and Alexa Junge (“Friends,” “Sex and the City”).

“1600 Penn” -- The Gilchrists are just the average American family dealing with all the everyday issues – like a grown kid who’s forced to move back home, children who are smarter than their teachers and a stepmom (Jenna Elfman, “Dharma and Greg”) desperately trying to win over the kids. They’re loving, fun and a little crazy. In other words, just like everybody else. With one exception: they live in a very special house. The White House! Whether it’s entertaining foreign dignitaries, sneaking away for a night out, dealing with middle school crushes or putting out fires – figuratively and sometimes literally – there’s never a dull moment in the Gilchrist White House. For example, the First Son (Josh Gad, star of Broadway sensation “The Book of Mormon”) is one of the administration’s biggest liabilities, but also the glue that holds this family together. The President (Bill Pullman, “Independence Day,” “While You Were Sleeping”) knows too well that the only thing harder than being Head of State is being head of the family. Also starring are Martha MacIsaac (“Superbad”), Andre Holland (“Friends with Benefits”), Amara Miller (“The Descendants”) and Benjamin Stockham (“Sons of Tucson”). “Modern Family” meets “The West Wing” in this election-year comedy from Emmy-winning executive producer/director Jason Winer (“Modern Family”). The executive producers are Winer, Gad and Jon Lovett (former White House speechwriter). Winer also directed the pilot. “1600 Penn” is produced by 20th Century Fox.

“Next Caller” -- What happens when a foulmouthed satellite radio DJ – played by the multi-platinum selling artist and outrageously charming Dane Cook (“My Best Friend’s Girl”) – is forced to share the mic with a chipper NPR feminist? It’s anyone’s call in this sharp new comedy from producer Stephen Falk (“Weeds”) and Emmy-winning director Marc Buckland (“Grimm,” “My Name Is Earl”). It’s her first day in New York City, and 26-year-old Stella Hoobler (Collette Wolfe, “Young Adult”) is ready to take on the world. After a stint on public radio, she’s been hired to co-host the no-holds-barred show “Booty Calls with Cam Dunne.” Smart, spunky and passionate, Stella is determined to elevate the show beyond its boy’s-club-locker-room humor into a respected debate about men, women and the state of human relationships. But there’s a problem: Cam! She’s going to find out the hard way that he’s got no intention of sharing the spotlight, especially with someone like her. It’s going to be a tense fight, but with the station’s one rule being “make some noise,” Cam and Stella could be a winning combination – as long as they don’t knock each other out on their way to success. Jeffrey Tambor (“Arrested Development”), Joy Osmanski (“True Jackson, VP”) and Wolé Parks (“Premium Rush”) also star. The series is created and executive-produced by Stephen Falk (“Weeds”) and directed by Emmy Award-winning director Marc Buckland (“Grimm,” “My Name Is Earl”), who also serves as executive producer on the pilot. “Next Caller” is produced by Lionsgate Television and Universal Television.

New Dramas



“Revolution” -- Our entire way of life depends on electricity. So what would happen if it just stopped working? Well, one day, like a switch turned off, the world is suddenly thrust back into the dark ages. Planes fall from the sky, hospitals shut down, and communication is impossible. And without any modern technology, who can tell us why? Now, 15 years later, life is back to what it once was long before the industrial revolution: families living in quiet cul-de-sacs, and when the sun goes down lanterns and candles are lit. Life is slower and sweeter. Or is it? On the fringes of small farming communities, danger lurks. And a young woman’s life is dramatically changed when a local militia arrives and kills her father, who mysteriously – and unbeknownst to her – had something to do with the blackout. This brutal encounter sets her and two unlikely companions off on a daring coming-of-age journey to find answers about the past in the hopes of reclaiming the future. From director Jon Favreau (“Iron Man,” “Iron Man 2”) and the fertile imaginations of J.J. Abrams (“Lost,” “Person Of Interest”) and Eric Kripke (“Supernatural”), comes a surprising “what if” action-adventure series, where an unlikely hero will lead the world out of the dark. Literally. The series stars Billy Burke (“The Twilight Saga”), Tracy Spiridakos (“Being Human”), Anna Lise Phillips (“Terra Nova”), Zak Orth (“Romeo + Juliet“), Graham Rogers (“Memphis Beat”), J.D. Pardo (“A Cinderella Story”), Giancarlo Esposito (“Breaking Bad”), David Lyons (“The Cape”), Maria Howell (“The Blind Side”), Tim Guinee (“Iron Man”) and Andrea Roth (“Rescue Me”). Kripke, Abrams, Favreau and Bryan Burk (“Lost,” “Star Trek”) serve as executive producers. “Revolution” is produced by Bonanza Productions Inc. in association with Bad Robot Productions, Kripke Enterprises and Warner Bros. Television. The pilot was directed by Favreau.

“Chicago Fire” -- No job is more stressful, dangerous or exhilarating than those of the Firefighters, Rescue Squad and Paramedics of Chicago Firehouse 51. These are America’s everyday heroes -- the courageous men and women who forge headfirst into danger when everyone else is running the other way. But the enormous responsibilities of the job also take a personal toll. Big reputations and hefty egos, coupled with the pressure to perform and make split-second decisions, are bound to put squad members at odds. When a tragedy claims one of their own, there’s plenty of guilt and blame to go around. In the middle of a divorce, Lt. Matthew Casey (Jesse Spencer, “House M.D.”) tries to go about business as usual but can’t help butting heads with the brash Lt. Kelly Severide (Taylor Kinney, “The Vampire Diaries”) of the Rescue Squad – and each blames the other for their fallen team member. When it’s “go-time” though, they put aside their differences and put everything on the line for each other. “Chicago Fire” is a look inside one of America’s noblest professions. Also starring are Eamonn Walker (“The Messenger”), Charlie Barnett, (“Law & Order: SVU”), David Eigenberg (“Sex and the City”), Monica Raymund (“The Good Wife”), Lauren German (“Hawaii Five-O”), Teri Reeves (“Three Rivers”) and Merle Dandridge (“Sons Of Anarchy”). “Chicago Fire” is produced by Universal Television and Wolf Films. Emmy Award-winning creator/ producer Dick Wolf (“Law & Order” brand), Derek Haas (“3:10 to Yuma”), Michael Brandt (“3:10 to Yuma”), Peter Jankowski (“Law & Order” brand) and Danielle Gelber serve as executive producers. Haas and Brandt wrote the pilot, which was directed by Jeffrey Nachmanoff (“Homeland”). From renowned Emmy-winning producer Dick Wolf and the writing team behind “3:10 to Yuma” comes an edge-of-your-seat view of a dirty job that often means the difference between life and death.

“Do No Harm” -- Dr. Jason Cole (Steven Pasquale, “Rescue Me”) is a highly respected neurosurgeon who has it all – a lucrative career, confident charm, the gift of compassion. But he also has a deep, dark secret. One morning when he wakes up disoriented in a wrecked hotel room amidst several near-naked women he’s never seen before, he knows one thing: it’s happening again. Every night at the same hour, something inside Jason changes, leaving him almost unrecognizable – seductive, devious, borderline sociopathic. This new man is his dangerous alternate personality who goes by the name of ‘Ian Price.’ For years he’s battled Ian, keeping him in check with a powerful experimental sedative. But now his – their – body has developed a resistance to the serum, setting Ian free once again. And to make matters worse, after being suppressed for so long, Ian’s hell-bent on taking Revenge on his oppressor. With everyone Jason cares about at risk – patients, friends, coworkers and even the woman he loves – he’s got to stop Ian once and for all. Will they find some common ground, or will they bring each other down? Hell hath no fury like an alter ego scorned. Also starring are Alana De La Garza (“Law & Order”), Mousa Kraish (“Superbad”), Michael Esper (“A Beautiful Mind”), Ruta Gedmintas (“The Borgias”) and Phylicia Rashad (“The Cosby Show”). “Do No Harm” is produced by Universal Television and Traugott Company.

“Infamous” -- When wealthy socialite and notorious party girl Vivian Bowers is found dead of an overdose, no one is really surprised. The heiress to the Bowers pharmaceutical empire has been tabloid fodder for years: wild, pretty, privileged… and now dead at the age of 32. But for FBI agent Will Moreno (Laz Alonso, “Avatar”), things don’t add up with this suspicious dynasty. Convinced that the troubled girl’s death was a homicide, he has a clever plan to get to the truth. Her name is Detective Joanna Locasto (Meagan Good, “Think Like a Man”). Twenty years ago, she was Vivian’s best friend, having grown up in the Bowers’ home as daughter of the family housekeeper. And when she appears at Vivian’s funeral, the family re-embraces her and no one is the wiser. Joanna quickly begins to uncover dark secrets and clues about why Vivian’s life was very much in danger. At the same time, she rekindles an old romantic relationship and rediscovers the allure of the luxurious lifestyle she once knew. She’s about to see once again just how the other half lives... and dies. Also starring are Victor Garber (“Alias”), Tate Donovan (“Damages”), Katherine La Nasa (“Alfie”), Neil Jackson (“Quantum of Solace”) and Ella Rae Peck (“Gossip Girl”). “Infamous” comes from executive producer/writer Liz Heldens (“Friday Night Lights”) and director Peter Horton (“Grey’s Anatomy,” “Dirty Sexy Money”).

“Hannibal” -- One of the most fascinating literary characters comes to life on television for the first time: psychiatrist-turned-serial-killer, Dr. Hannibal Lecter. In this new drama from Bryan Fuller (“Pushing Daisies,” “Heroes”), based on the characters from Thomas Harris’ classic novels, we see where this incredible story began. Will Graham (Hugh Dancy, “The Big C”) is a gifted criminal profiler who is on the hunt for a serial killer with the FBI. Graham’s unique way of thinking gives him the astonishing ability to empathize with anyone – even psychopaths. He seems to know what makes them tick. But when the mind of the twisted killer he’s pursuing is too complicated for even Will to comprehend, he enlists the help of Dr. Lecter, one of the premier psychiatric minds in the country. Armed with the uncanny expertise of the brilliant doctor, Will and Hannibal (known as a serial killer only to the audience) form a brilliant partnership and it seems there’s no villain they can’t catch. If Will only knew… Fuller is writer and executive producer. Martha De Laurentis ("Red Dragon," "Hannibal"), Sara Colleton ("Dexter"), Jesse Alexander ("Lost", "Heroes"), and Katie O'Connell also serve as executive producers. David Slade is the director/executive producer for the series pilot. "Hannibal" is produced by Gaumont International Television.

“Howie Mandel’s White Elephant” -- From Howie Mandel (“America’s Got Talent”) comes an exciting new game show based on one of the most wildly popular holiday party games in America. A contestant selects a box from a studio full of unmarked packages containing millions of dollars in prizes, showing what’s inside to the others. Then, the next player is faced with a potentially life-changing dilemma: do they steal a prize that has already been revealed, or do they take a chance with another unopened box, hoping what’s inside is worth more? But that’s just the beginning. When there are only two contestants left, Howie will reveal what’s inside the boxes and give the players a choice: share… or steal. If both players choose to share, they will each keep the prizes they have won in the prior rounds. If one player shares and the other steals, the player that chose to steal will go home with all the prizes. But if both choose to steal, they both go home with nothing! The stakes are insanely high as each contestant grapples with the choice of a lifetime… and the white elephant in the room. “Howie Mandel’s White Elephant” is from Universal Television and Alevy Productions. Mandel and Mike Marks are the executive producers.

The only show that looks interesting is Revolution.

LOL at Community and Whitney being placed on Fridays.

Yawn.

LOL at Whitney/Community on Fridays and seriously Rock Center is back AND on Thursday?! The show that got such bad ratings on Wednesdays it was pulled from sweeps?

Where's Biggest Loser? Smash?

The Voice is going to get burnout quick with yet another cycle.

SVU again buried against Criminal Minds and Modern Family with no support?

The only show that looks interesting is Revolution.

LOL at Community and Whitney being placed on Fridays.



Any show that airs on a weekend can forget it-lol

I'm glad Parenthood keeps its Tuesdays at 10pm timeslot. I can't believe it's the only show I watch on NBC now after Chuck ended this season. Of course I do think 1600 Penn sounds interesting so I will probably check that out whenever it premieres.

Any show that airs on a weekend can forget it-lol

Not 100% true. ABC's Shark Tank is doing phenomenal every Friday and keeps growing. But scripted, it is tough and I don't see Whitney or Community doing well, especially the latter since it is more 18-34.

Wasn't Community basically renewed for syndication fulfillment?

Our thoughts and some notes have been added:

http://blog.sitcomsonline.com/2012/05/nbc-upfront-2012-13-fall-2012-schedule.html

The only thing that sounds good to me is "Chicago Fire". Mainly because I love shows like that...(I'm hoping it will be alot like Third Watch) and Dick Wolf can do no wrong in my home.

Only thing I watch on NBC right now is "L&O SVU" and I'll be watching it again next season.

Everything else looks like crap. Except maybe "Go On" but, I'm not going to get too interested in that since Matthew Perry hasn't had a show survive since Friends.

The trailer for Revolution looks good but I don't see it doing well out of "The Voice." It's just so completely different and targeted to a different demo, I don't think it'll get enough of an audience every week. But the plot looks interesting - kind of a hybrid between Terra Nova and Falling Skies on TNT.

NBC picked Up some Good Shows this year for once! a lot of them sound interesting. But they could have made a better schedule.

Animal Practice sounds good, I wish it were switched with Guys With Kids so it's not on against The Middle. I might try Revolution if Castle moves. I'm surprised 1600 Penn isn't on the fall schedule. Awake was cancelled so the even lower rated Rock Center could air there? :rolleyes:

This is a surprisingly risky schedule for NBC. They better hope their new comedies do well otherwise this line-up is going to be a disaster for them.

It's clear that they have given up on Thursdays and are just letting the critically adored but low-rated shows do their thing. (Well, Up All Night is not exactly at that level but NBC wants it to be). Which is honestly the right move, especially if CBS is going 2-hour comedy. Nothing is going to grow there. Rock Center at 10 makes sense because it's cheap, it could get a 0.3 and NBC wouldn't care. Every single show they tried on Thursdays at 10 this year failed, why bother with anything else?

Easily the most bizarre move is the Whitney/Community pairing on Friday. Community on Fridays actually makes some sense - it's compatible with the decently-rated Grimm and has a low-rated but dedicated audience, and if it can retain a bulk of that audience it will be considered a success for that night. But pairing it with Whitney is odd, I doubt they share any audience at all....

I am guessing/see that Roseanne Pilot Downwardly Mobile was not picked up?. I heard that it did not test very well, I was looking forward to seeing Roseanne and John Goodman in a TV Show Together again1

I'm sorry they canceled Harry's Law for more Reality shows. :( I do not like Reality shows and avoid them at all cost. I've gone to watch more movies on Satellite channels or find the old TV shows to view.

Don't know how they could have cancelled Harry's Law she was getting nearly 10 million viewers a week in a sunday night timeslot.

Uhh what reality shows? NBC doesn't have any new reality shows this year.

Don't know how they could have cancelled Harry's Law she was getting nearly 10 million viewers a week in a sunday night timeslot.
Its 18-49 demo numbers were abysmal, which sadly is the only thing networks care about.

NBC has plenty reality coming mid-season, though.

Pavan, do you have any indication yet from the network on when they plan to air their fall preview show? I'm presuming they're going to try and air it either during their 'Summer Olympics' coverage or very shortly thereafter, but they may go early (pre-Olympics) with it because of all the sneak peeks in August.

The Olympics lead-in will give Animal Practice some good sampling, nice move. :)

'The 2012 NBC Primetime Preview Show' is being skedded as a half-hour affiliate special, and I don't have any information yet on who is hosting it (last year's fall preview was a crossover with the cast of 'Whitney').

On my affiliate, 'The 2012 NBC Primetime Preview Show' has been skedded for Sunday August 19th out of 'NFL Pre-Season Football': "Indiannapolis Colts at Pittsburgh Steelers".

I can also confirm it will be airing on USA network on Friday September 14th at 6:00 am, so presumably it will be cablecast across all of the Comcast-NBCU networks at some point this fall.

Nothing really excites me abot their schedule.

It has been confirmed last morning that The Office (the U.S. TV series) is ending with the upcoming Season 9. No Season 10.

The only thing that sounds good to me is "Chicago Fire". Mainly because I love shows like that...(I'm hoping it will be alot like Third Watch) and Dick Wolf can do no wrong in my home.

Only thing I watch on NBC right now is "L&O SVU" and I'll be watching it again next season.

Everything else looks like crap. Except maybe "Go On" but, I'm not going to get too interested in that since Matthew Perry hasn't had a show survive since Friends.

So, this Chicago Fire TV show must be named for an MLS team of the same name, eh?! OK, this maybe watchable, but if you or a someone else are a fan of football (soccer), then this may/may not be the show for you/someone.

If most viewers are like me, they've never even heard of the Chicago Fire team. I don't think it'll matter very much.

I watched the first 16 minutes of Revolution. This is not my type of show.

I'm losing interest in Go On. Was Robert Guillaume only in the first two episodes? He was one of the best parts of the show.

Robert was never on Go On. You're confusing him with Bill Cobbs...

If you are an animal lover please watch Animal Practice Wednesdays on NBC. Contrary to some reviews I think it's one of the best, if not THE best new sitcom this year. It's certainly better than FOX's new sitcoms! AP is also unique, I don't recall any other sitcoms set at a vet's office. And it has Joanna Garcia, who Reba fans will remember as Cheyenne. Unfortunately Animal Practice got off to a poor start in its timeslot premiere, it needs help to get better ratings.

Gloria was set in a vet's office.

Guys with Kids is better than the FOX comedies but not something I'd watch on a regular basis.

The returns of the sitcoms Whitney and Community have been postponed. Originally set to return on 19 October, they will now return at a date yet to be determined. NBC has decided to continue focusing its promotional efforts on its current successful programming.

Animal Practice has been cancelled, and the return date for the sitcom Whitney is 14 November.

Animal Practice has been cancelled, and the return date for the sitcom Whitney is 14 November.I'm sure all the haters are happy. :rolleyes: Animal Practice deserved a lot better ratings and reviews. It's the best comedy NBC has aired since Frasier ended. At least there's still three more episodes that will air.

It's the best comedy NBC has aired since Frasier ended.

That's insane... to each their own but are you serious? It's not even the best comedy to premiere on NBC this season...

That's insane... to each their own but are you serious? It's not even the best comedy to premiere on NBC this season...Yes. I haven't liked any of NBC's niche comedies in the unfunny line of 30 Rock and Parks and Recreation. As for this year, Guys with Kids is ok but nowhere near Animal Practice. Go On has its moments but Animal Practice is still better. And I refuse to watch The New Normal, I get tired of the gay agenda being shoved down my throat.

NBC Mid-Season 2013 Schedule:

NBC couldn't even let me enjoy the last scheduled Animal Practice tonight in peace, they had to go pulling it a week early. :rolleyes:

Wow NBC must really be trying to kill off it's hit series Revolution. Really it's taking a break from November until late March. I guess I'll go back to watching Hawaii Five-O once Monday Night Football is over.

NBC ANNOUNCES TWO-HOUR SEASON FINALE FOR ‘THE VOICE’ ON DECEMBER 18

Final 90-minute Performance Show Will Air on Monday, December 17 (8-9:30 p.m. ET) Followed by Sneak Preview of New Comedy Series “1600 Penn” (9:30-10 p.m. ET)


UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif. – November 9, 2012 – NBC’s “The Voice” will decisively declare a winner when the intense vocal competition series concludes its third season with a live two-hour finale on Tuesday, December 18 (9-11 p.m. ET). The finale also will be preceded with a live, 90-minute final performance episode of “The Voice” on Monday, December 17 (8-9:30 p.m.ET) -- which will be followed by a sneak preview of NBC’s new comedy series “1600 Penn” (9:30-10 p.m. ET).

“1600 Penn” stars Bill Pullman (“Independence Day”), Jenna Elfman (“Dharma and Greg”) and Josh Gad (Broadway’s “The Book of Mormon”) – and concerns a typical American family who just happen to live in the White House.

The series will premiere in its regular day and time on Thursday, January 10 (9:30-10 p.m. ET). The sneak peek episode will also re-air that night from 8:30 - 9 p.m. ET.

“The Voice” features the strongest vocalists from across the country invited to compete in the blockbuster vocal competition show's third season. Celebrity musician coaches Christina Aguilera, CeeLo Green, Adam Levine and Blake Shelton return along with Carson Daly as host and Christina Milian as Social Media Correspondent.

In the final live performance phase of the competition, the top artists from each team will compete each week against each other during a live broadcast. The television audience will vote to save their favorite artists and the two artists with the lowest number of votes will be sent home each week, no matter what team they are on. In the end, one will be named “The Voice” and will receive the grand prize of a recording contract.

“The Voice” is a presentation of One Three Inc. (a Hearst/Mark Burnett company), Talpa Media USA Inc. and Warner Horizon Television. The series is created by John de Mol, who executive-produces along with Burnett, Audrey Morrissey, Stijn Bakkers and Lee Metzger.
In “1600 Penn,” the Gilchrists are just the average American family dealing with all the everyday issues – like a grown kid who’s forced to move back home, children who are smarter than their teachers and a stepmom (Elfman) desperately trying to win over the kids. They’re loving, fun and a little crazy. In other words, just like everybody else. With one exception: they live in a very special house. The White House!

Whether it’s entertaining foreign dignitaries, sneaking away for a night out, dealing with middle school crushes or putting out fires – figuratively and sometimes literally – there’s never a dull moment in the Gilchrist White House. For example, the First Son (Josh Gad, star of Broadway sensation “The Book of Mormon”) is one of the administration’s biggest liabilities, but also the glue that holds this family together. The President (Bill Pullman, “Independence Day,” “While You Were Sleeping”) knows too well that the only thing harder than being Head of State is being head of the family.

Also starring are Martha MacIsaac (“Superbad”), Andre Holland (“Friends with Benefits”), Amara Miller (“The Descendants”) and Benjamin Stockham (“Sons of Tucson”). “Modern Family” meets “The West Wing” in this election-year comedy from Emmy-winning executive producer/director Jason Winer (“Modern Family”).

The executive producers are Winer, Gad and Jon Lovett (former White House speechwriter). Winer also directed the pilot. “1600 Penn” is produced by 20th Century Fox.

What's Do No Harm?

NBC seems to be following more of a cable style schedule with their serial dramas - air them in a clump in the fall and a clump in the spring. I don't think the hiatus for Revolution is a bad idea because it would probably suffer without The Voice in Jan/Feb.

As for The Voice, I don't think resting it awhile is a bad move. It might help avoid overkill.

Do No Harm is a medical drama with a Jekyll & Hyde theme... it looks kinda lame from the promos IMO

NBC is following it's new scheduling head, ex ABC Jeff Bader. He scheduled originals on NBC for thanksgiving and now long hiatus for a serial show. That killed them on ABC, now he's doing it on NBC. Hopefully for him and for Revolution, it does not repeat.

Mockingbird Lane is terrible! I'm glad it wasn't picked up to series, an insult to use the Munsters name.

Eva Longoria's unscripted Ready For Love will air a preview on Tuesday, March 26th at 9-11 pm so both comedies are pre-empted when The Voice returns, not a good sign, although by then they will only have 4 episodes left. Maybe Save Me appears doubled up in May after The Voice?

Deception is officially cancelled per Deadline.

Parks and Recreation, NBC's longest-running current sitcom (now that 30 Rock and The Office have retired as a current series), gets renewed for a sixth season.

1600 Penn is cancelled. Its 1600 viewers will miss it. ;)

Whitney is cancelled. That's what it gets for replacing Animal Practice. :D

If NBC were going to officially cancel the absolute trainwreck known as "Up All Night", they should have made it official by now.

Guys with Kids and Up All Night are dead.

Go On is cancelled.

NBC must be having a going out of business sale. lol

Rock Center with Brian Williams is cancelled.

Community is renewed for 13 episodes.

i found this hilarious:

NBC could save so much money if they just replace their programming department with a monkey full of bourbon and a target with potential and current shows.

Shhh. With the current emphasis on reality television, they might just make that the entire show. Up next on NBC, Alco the monkey and the guy from Moonshiners play darts.

"The New Normal" gone.

"Smash" gone

Looks like next Thursday's 8 pm episode of Save Me is a repeat so they are only airing 7 episodes and scrapped 6! :(

NBC/Sony fired the original Save Me showrunner after episode 7 and the new showrunners were told to ignore the existing episodes and restart the show from after the pilot.

It is intriguing that there's a whole second, unaired, version of the show, though!
