NBC Announces Five Drama Series Renewals for Next Season
"Revolution,"
"Chicago Fire," "Parenthood," "Grimm" and "Law & Order: Special
Victims Unit" are all due back for 22 episodes.
UNIVERSAL CITY,
Calif. - April 26, 2013 - NBC has announced the renewal of five key
drama series for the 2013-14 season: "Revolution," "Chicago Fire,"
"Parenthood," "Grimm" and "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit."
All have been given 22-episode orders.
The announcement was made by Jennifer Salke, president of NBC Entertainment.
"On
the verge of our 2013 fall scheduling decisions, we're pleased to renew
five drama series that will be important to our new season line-up,"
Salke said. "We're proud and very appreciative of all of the actors,
producers, writers and directors who work so hard to deliver such
high-quality work week in and week out. These complex shows represent a
broad range of genres and tones, and all of them stand out for us in a
television landscape now filled with one-hour series. We're especially
pleased to be renewing "Revolution" and "Chicago Fire" - two
first-season successes - and there will be more returning series
announcements made in the next couple of weeks."
"Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" will enter its 15th
season for NBC. The series chronicles the life and crimes of the Special
Victims Unit of the New York City Police Department, an elite squad of
detectives who investigate sexually based crimes.
"Law &
Order: Special Victims Unit" is a Wolf Films production in association
with Universal Television. Dick Wolf is creator and executive producer.
Warren Leight, Julie Martin and Peter Jankowski are also executive
producers.
"Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" originals this
season have improved the time period versus year-ago results by 70
percent in adults 18-49 ("live plus same day") and are building on the
time slot's lead-in by 31 percent in 18-49 and 70 percent in total
viewers.
