While Awful Announcing considers it a "bold" move, Indiewire's Tony Maglio says it seems like NBC is giving up Young Rock after two seasons. "NBC banished Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson’s Young Rock to Fridays, which is typically a death sentence for shows not named Blue Bloods," says Maglio. "The network will explain it away as good pairing with George Lopez’s new sitcom, Lopez vs. Lopez, but really it’s a reflection of the lack of confidence NBC has in Johnson’s third-season comedy (and the first-season one)."
