Re: NBC's Fall 2011 Schedule
After reading all the comments about Awake here I checked the preview and yeah, it looks interesting. I will probably check it, but I'm not sure if they really can deliver, I mean it's one of those shows that can be a really huge hit or crash really bad (i.e. check Lost vs all the clones after that)

I'll give Awake a shot because it seems to be it's own show, the problem with the Lost clones is they felt like Lost clones.

Awake looks pretty decent. I try not to get too excited about shows on the major networks... they have an uphill battle. Typically with HBO and Showtime shows they last at least an entire season and usually they're pretty damn good.

Already mentioned earlier in this thread, but like I mentioned earlier, they did not shoot any nudity for the Pilot from a story I read a week ago. The producers of the show said they have no plans to right now. The contract is just to leave the option open.

Awake definitely has a very interesting premise. BD Wong from SVU plays one of the psychiatrists. I'm curious as to how the series unfolds, whether or not it is serialized or just goes on like a procedural.
Grimm looks like a definite watch for me too. Since I like Amanda Peet I will check out Bent. Didn't like the Prime Suspect one though although that is because I've seen a couple of the original miniseries with Helen Mirren.

Colombia Records has apparently signed to release the soundtracks to NBC's Smash and signed a solo deal with Katherine McPhee as well.

The show apparently won an early award as well as one of the top 8 new shows from critics.
Always cracks me up to see a studio like Fox who put out shows on other networks that tend to do better than the shows on their network (ie: Modern Family). Alas they get about the same amount of money + dvd sales.

Most Exciting New Series category at the inaugural Critics’ Choice Television Awards.

Some of the most buzzed-about new series, including NBC's Smash and Fox's New Girl and Terra Nova, made the list, while others, including CBS' Person of Interest and 2 Broke Girls and ABC's Pan Am, didn't. Here are the honorees (there will be no winner in the category, with all eight shows acknowledged at the awards show June 20):
