Awesome news, thanks for posting. Glad we finally have a solid date for the return of Parks And Recreation. Nice to see someone has wised up over at NBC and decided to air it after The Office. It should definitely benefit from that time slot.

That's a lot of half-hour comedies back-to-back. Glad we got a premiere date for Parks and Rec. Don't know anything about Perfect Couples (assume it's a comedy).

Seems like a death sentence for Outsourced.

There was no 10-11pm drama. The Apprentice has that timeslot right now.
I know most people in this forum only really care about the Thursday comedy block, but there are alot of other moves mentioned in that story.
Parenthood is moving to Monday's at 10pm
Law and Order Los Angeles is moving to Tuesday's at 10pm
Chase is moving to Wednesday's at 9pm
SVU is moving to Wednesday's at 10pm
The Cape premieres Sunday January 9th (2 hours) and will air Monday's at 9pm while The Event is on hiatus
Harry's Law (David E. Kelly's new show) premieres January 17th
The Event returns from midseason hiatus on February 28th
Celebrity Apprentice premieres March 6th
Friends with Benefits, Love Bites and The Paul Reiser Show are all MIA.

Considering they were averaging 4-5 million in that hour with Apprentice, putting comedies with a million more viewers is an improvement.
Of course, NBC is the only major network that seems perfectly happy with a three hour block with a range of 4.5-7.5 million viewers.

30 Rock getting picked up 
I'll check out Perfect Couples and I got into Parks and Rec towards the end of last season, so I'll be watching everything but Outsourced.

Forgot to mention that Marriage Ref will return March 6th. I know everyone here can't wait for for that one. 
Marriage Ref and Celebrity Apprentice are a match made in heaven.

I assume your not a fan of Mr. Reiser. The promos have been online for months. It's a Curb your Enthusiasm type show and guess what? He's playing himself.
