SVU got picked up for a 14th season because Mariska re-signed recently and NBC wants to continue doing business with Dick Wolf. His new Pilot "Chicago Fire" got picked up to series yesterday....It stars Jesse Spencer from House.

It's a bitter sweet announcement for Community. 13 episodes are definitely better than 0, but that means that as of today, we're only getting 16 more episodes and then it's done.

Come on Chuck! ... oh wait... :sad:

Re: NBC renewal announcements 2012-13
 

Has it been confirmed it's a final season? Or are we all just assuming it'll be done after the 13?

Re: NBC renewal announcements 2012-13
 

No it's not. People are just assuming it.

However, the chances of it getting a "Back 9" order are slim considering it never gets more than 3-3.5M viewers a week and is always in the low 1's in the 18-49 demographic.

So happy that Parenthood is coming back. My favorite show now of the last several seasons. Good news.

Re: NBC renewal announcements 2012-13
 

:up: Parenthood
:up: Community (Let's hope they can get the quality up to s1-2 standard again)

Then all I need is Parks & Recreation and I'm happy.

Re: NBC renewal announcements 2012-13
 

Tell me about it. I was meh on it - still think it's a great concept - and then we just watched the Taco Boy episode. Good stuff. :up:

Re: NBC renewal announcements 2012-13
 

I thought it was hilarious that Univision kept targeting NBC in their upfront campaign, basically showing how they were beating them in the 18–49 demo consistently.

Sure enough, before upfronts even started, Univision signed a huge deal with Starcom.

Poor NBC. :lol:

I hope they cancel Celebrity Apprentice so they can tell Donald Trump "You're fired," and send him off in a taxi.

Re: NBC renewal announcements 2012-13
 

I would have liked to see Community get canceled just to watch the internet explode.

Re: NBC renewal announcements 2012-13
 

I used to watch Parenthood but then I kept hearing rumors that it was going to be cancelled so I stopped. Hopefully I can catch up, I did really like it.

Glad to see LO SVU get another season.

Re: NBC renewal announcements 2012-13
 

Any chance that Harry's Law makes it back? It's easily my favorite NBC show. It's so much better this year than last. The cases have been very good and shockingly, DEK seems to be taking a much more libertarian viewpoint towards the law.

Re: NBC renewal announcements 2012-13
 

Nope, but considering that the show doesn't do gangbusters with ratings, I can't imagine it will get renewed. Television shows that move to syndication sometimes get a boost from people who discover it in syndication and then go on to watch new episodes. But Comedy Central isn't going to start airing Community until next year, too late to do it any good ratings wise.

Re: NBC renewal announcements 2012-13
 

I think it was a different show last year. Previous years were borderline crappy. This last season was more heartfelt and less cloying. Much smarter and even had more visual style. So i think the show has grown up and become less After School Special. It could have something to do with a greater involvement by Jason Katims, since the end of FNL.


Katims also has a new medical show called 'County', with Jason Ritter that already guarantees my viewing.

Re: NBC renewal announcements 2012-13
 

Hasn't been picked up though.

Re: NBC renewal announcements 2012-13
 

out of all the comedies, 30 Rock, The Office, P&R, and Community, I would have sworn P&R was the biggest shoe-in to return.... yet, here we patiently wait.

Re: NBC renewal announcements 2012-13
 

Some men. World burn.

Re: NBC renewal announcements 2012-13
 

Multiple Season pickup? Can only hope...

Re: NBC renewal announcements 2012-13
 

I'd like to see them pick up a few for 13 episodes and close out stories - more of a BBC approach. I hey just dump stuff they'll be in a world of hurt, especially if new shows flop.

Re: NBC renewal announcements 2012-13
 

Parks & Recreation and Up All Night have been renewed.

Thanks

Updated my OP with the big list

Re: NBC renewal announcements 2012-13
 

From everything I read, the overall viewership (8-8.5M viewers) is great (probably one of NBC's highest) The problem is the 18-49 demographic and those numbers are really ugly (1.0 and below) The show skews really old. Even DEK knows that the show mainly attracts older people.

Re: NBC renewal announcements 2012-13
 

i'm confused

is next season of Parks and Rec the last or what?

Re: NBC renewal announcements 2012-13
 

It's not the last. Only 30 Rock is officially the last. People and the media are kind of freaking out/jumping the gun because they see a 13 episode order and they assume the show is dead after that.

I read they have cut the orders for some of these lower performing shows so they can budget in newer ones.
