May 8, 201213 yr Author Administrator 1600 Penn, Animal Practice, Save Me,The New Normal, and Revolution were all picked up today.
May 9, 201213 yr Member Parenthood is the only show I watch on the big 4 networks. I hope it gets renewed, but at least the season three finale could easily work as a series finale.
May 10, 201213 yr Member I will check out "Animal Practice" (horrible title) if only for Justin Kirk. Otherwise, meh.
May 10, 201213 yr Author Administrator Do No Harm and Infamous picked up. Parenthood and 30 Rock (final season) renewed.
May 10, 201213 yr Member Parenthood renewed. Yes! Thanks for posting, Toups. Very happy to hear this.
May 11, 201213 yr Author Administrator Happy for Parenthood too. Harry's Law canceled. And it was one of NBC's highest viewed shows. But it was very low demos, even for NBC's standards. Whitney, Parks & Recreation, Community, Up All Night renewed. Are You There, Chelsea, BFF, Bent, Awake canceled. Next Caller picked up.
May 11, 201213 yr Member Sigh. Why the hell the did NBC renew nearly all of it's sitcoms? Only The Office is pulling above a 2 and even them barely do that. There's nothing to save or build off of on this night anymore. It's time to do what ABC did when they first launched Modern Family, slash & burn. Should have canceled them all and started completely over. I suppose as a multi-cam sitcom fan I should be happy that a multi-cam outside of CBS has finally gotten a renewed, but sad it's the awful and unwatchable Whitney.
May 11, 201213 yr Author Administrator I think NBC is going to do a schedule with less repeats and that's why they renewed/picked up so many shows. Plus, they're probably going to be launching some shows in August after the Olympics. And I actually stayed with Whitney for the full season - it got better as the season continued.
May 12, 201213 yr Member Yeah, I know what they are going to try to do, but it's not going to work. Launching some shows after the Olympics is probably a good idea, but NBC is never going to make money or climb out of 4th if you constantly renew shows that only pull a 1.5 in the demo. If CBS expands it's Thursday comedy block next season, The Office will be pulling under a 2 by Christmas. Launch your comedy block after the Olympics but with 4 brand new sitcoms with your most promising one at 9. If it fails, try again, but your never never going climb out of the hole if you consider the 1.4 and 1.5s these shows have been getting good enough for a renewal. ABC's Wednesday comedy block is a success because of Modern Family and the fact when they launched it they started completely fresh. NBC needs to do the same. Thank god they are at least putting 30 Rock out to pasture next year. Edited May 12, 201213 yr by wingwalker
May 12, 201213 yr Member NBC is dead. Stick a fork in them. Only things I bother watching on there is 30 Rock (Final Season and that sucks) and L&O SVU. (I hope Kelli Giddish stays on for another season.)
May 12, 201213 yr Author Administrator 30 Rock was the ultimate underdog out of the gate (Studio 60 had all the buzz) and it lasted about 113 more episodes than anyone expect (nobody expected it to get a back 9 order....then 2nd season renewal...and so on) and it won a ton of awards. It will go down as one of the best comedies in the history of TV. Thank God NBC sucked/still sucks or else this show wouldn't have made it as long as it did.
May 12, 201213 yr Member I'm happy to hear that Meagan Good's pilot was picked up. It's about time someone recognized her talent and I'll definitely be checking her show out.
