ABC & NBC Announce Returns and Renewals

September 6, 2023 By Marie F

ABC has announced the mid-season return of V. The alphabet net will pair up the alien invasion saga with No Ordinary Family on Tuesday nights at 9:pm, starting January 4th.

NBC, meanwhile, has given full-season orders to three of its new-in-2010 shows. The Event, which is among the highest-rated shows of the new season, has gotten an additional order of nine more episodes, giving it a full 22-episode first season. THR suggests that this is especially good news for fans, since their sources indicate that the big reveal of just exactly what “the Event” is, is planned for the end of the first season. Law & Order: Los Angeles and Outsourced have both gotten a back 9 order as well.

The verdict is still out for freshman series Chase and Undercovers, although Undercovers probably stands a decent chance, thanks to JJ Abrams’ clout in the industry (though speeding up reveals about the show’s mythology would certainly help), and Chase‘s modest ratings could be enough to allow it to survive the season.

Trailers for NBC’s new Fall shows

Earlier today, I told you about the twelve new shows NBC has on tap for the Fall 2010 season. Now NBC has released trailers for all but one of them, and here they are. (Law & Order: Los Angeles has no trailer, as nothing has been filmed yet.)

NBC orders The Event + 2 more

September 6, 2023 By Marie F

NBC has picked up three new series for its fall season — ahead of the much-anticipated “fall upfront” announcements that are coming in a few days.

Perhaps most exciting of the three is The Event, a high octane conspiracy thriller starring Jason Ritter (pictured) as an everyman who investigates the disappearance of his fiancee, and unwittingly begins to expose the biggest cover-up in U.S. history. His quest will send ripples through the lives of an eclectic band of strangers, including the newly elected U.S. President, the leader of a group of mysterious detainees, and the main character’s own father-in-law. NBC’s press release states, “Their futures are on a collision course in a global conspiracy that could ultimately change the fate of mankind.”

Outsourced is a new comedy by one of the producers of The Office. It’s about a culture clash that occurrs when an “all-American company” that sells novelty items outsources its call center to India. Todd Dempsy stars as the company’s new manager who learns that he’s being transferred to India to run the new call center.

Lastly, Love Bites is an hour-long romantic comedy anthology (there’s three words you don’t see together often), featuring three loosely connected, modern stories of love, sex, marriage, and dating. Each episode contains multiple vignettes, all illuminating the theme of love with an edgy, irreverent spin. Becki Newton and Jordana Spiro anchor the series with their ongoing tales of attempted romance, while other characters will come and go each week.

NBC is proving to be the most web-savvy network of the new season, as it’s already registered Twitter accounts for all three series: @NBCTheEvent, @OutsourcedNBC, and @NBCLoveBites.
