Hold the phone! Where just yesterday we were begrudging the likes of NBC's 'Whitney,' which like 'Chicago Fire' and 'Guys With Kids' had earned additional script orders from NBC, it seems the fire has just taken another leap forward. NBC has announced that the modestly performing Dick Wolf firefighter drama 'Chicago Fire' is on its way to a full-season pickup! How many episodes will the series see

Granted the two series aren't actually in competition, 'Community' fans grudge against 'Whitney' has just gotten even bigger.  Where once both series were scheduled to debut on Friday, October 19, NBC opted to delay the launch and fit each in at a later date.  'Whitney' quickly got placement into the failing 'Animal Practice' slot, leaving 'Community' to rot until February, so how could things get

While many couples jokingly maintain a "celebrity sex list" of stars with whom it's okay to cheat on their significant other, 'Parks and Recreation's' Ben Wyatt may come to regret Leslie Knope's. The character has long been vocal about her fixation on Vice President Joe Biden, an attraction that will finally be put to the test as the current re-elected VP will guest in an upcoming episod

As expected, last weekend's 'SNL' featuring Louis C.K. offered up an even mix of laughs and groans, some sketches falling flat while others stood as tall as Abraham Lincoln's stovepipe hat.  This weekend's newest outing will go back to basics however, as 'Les Miserables' star and Hollywood sweetheart Anne Hathaway picks up hosting duties for the third time, with musical guest Rihanna.  So what's t

It's safe to say that Hurricane Sandy caused chaos for a lot more than TV, but even those in affected areas with power may have noticed that the network airings were severely impacted by all the news coverage. Most pushed fresh episodes of their series toward another week, though '30 Rock' it seems just couldn't wait. The soon-to-end NBC comedy will move to Wednesday this week in order to better t

See? Everything gets better when the storm is over. In spite of all the many weather-related cancellations, earlier we learned that Louis C.K. would indeed go on to host 'SNL' this weekend with musical guest Fun., but what of future hosts? It seems the next two weeks are set as well, with returning host Anne Hathaway, and first-timer Jeremy Renner! So what musical guests will accompany them? Read

It may be a banner day for NBC now that the mid-season line-up has officially been set, including a returning 'Community,' but it also carries with it a grim reminder that we're approaching the end of '30 Rock!'  Sure, we have plenty of time for the moment, but the end of days is nigh!  So what better way to commemorate upcoming episode "There's No I in America" than with a new round of

Just minutes ago we heard the glorious news that 'Community' would finally get its long-awaited return on Thursday, February 7, taking over for '30 Rock' after its final season run.  But what else of NBC's mid-season line-up?  What new series will premiere, and when will returning favorites like 'Smash' or 'Revolution' pick up again?  Head inside for all the details on NBC's initial 2013 line-up,

Well, the end times have officially arrived.  No, we're not talking about Hurricane Sandy, but rather 'The Office,' whose fate has finally been sealed.  We knew 'The Office' itself would say goodbye after the current season, but now it seems that NBC has officially passed on picking up the Dwight Schrute-centric spin-off 'The Farm.'  the backdoor pilot will still air as an 'Office' episode this se

All too often we see struggling TV series limp on with additional episode orders or merely additional script orders, but they're usually a temporary stopgap. NBC's 'Up All Night' has never found a particularly strong foothold within the network's lineup, even after the re-vamp of the current premise and a light ratings uptick.
