Not all programming can be tailored towards sophisticates like yourself.

John Kransisky and Ed Helms are currently in negotiations on new contracts. And BJ Novak, as far as I can tell, will be back. He's not leaving for Mindy's new show. Maybe I'm wrong on that. But everything I've seen online indicates that BJ will be back.

Oh really? I just thought since this was about NBC, it should stay in that realm and not deviate. Thanks for the heads up though.

Enjoy 2 1\2 men. *shrug*

lol

that is the height of comedy, to suggest that anyone would... enjoy... two and a hal-*is crushed by nielsen ratings*

The Office, Parks & Rec and Up All Night have all been officially renewed. The article doesn't mention if this will be P&R's final season or not, but it does confirm a shortened season.

NBC renews 'The Office,' 'Parks & Recreation,' more
by James Hibberd

Three more NBC comedies are returning next season: The Office, Parks & Recreation and Up All Night have all been renewed.

The Office has endured serious downsizing this season. Despite continuing to rank as NBC’s top-rated scripted show, its ratings have dropped precariously and longtime showrunner Paul Lieberstein is exiting to focus on the show’s planned spinoff. Co-star James Spader is leaving at the end of the season, and Mindy Kaling is exiting to focus on her new Fox comedy, which received a series order last night.

Still, regulars Jenna Fischer, John Krasinski and Ed Helms are all expected to return, having reached new deals with the network. The Office remains NBC’s tentpole comedy on Thursday nights (averaging 6.4 million viewers and a 3.4 adult demo rating) and any spinoff will be easier to launch while fans of the flagship are still tuning into the network.

Parks & Recreation (averaging 4.4 million viewers and a 2.2 rating) is really modestly rated, but has passionate fans and plenty of critical praise. NBC figures it’s worth at least another half season to maintain some schedule consistency. Parks, like Community and 30 Rock, have shortened 13-episode orders.

Well this entire thread was much ado about nothing.......

What the **** is up all night? Last show that used that title I believe was usa with gilbert godfried and rhonda.

Up All Night is a sitcom created by Emily Spivey and produced by Lorne Michaels. It stars Christina Applegate, Will Arnett and Maya Rudolph.

It's about a couple with a new baby. I think it's a pretty good show. Nothing groundbreaking. But it's funny and I feel like I know the characters. Well written.

Parks and rec got a full season

NBC really went down the hill after the ending of both "Friends and Seinfeld." As well as "Fraiser."

I read that they wrote last night's episode of Parks and Rec as if it were a series finale. (Not a season finale, which it was) You could tell. It was pretty great.

Community was great too. (Continues to be the most underrated show I make a point to watch.) They've got 3 episodes left, I think.

It was.really that Leno primetime 5 nights a week thing that did them in. They are still struggling to recover from that and develop quality shows. They were nails in the 80s and 90s.
