NBC was the only network who was smart enough to have live-action scripted series air in the fall. And it is paying for those freshman dramas.
That is because they announced today that they are picking up Found and Irrational for a second season.
“These shows are a testament to the incredibly passionate work of our showrunners Nkechi Okoro Carroll (‘Found’) and Arika Lisanne Mittman (‘The Irrational’), both of whom have executed their visions flawlessly,” said Lisa Katz, President, Scripted Content, NBCUniversal Entertainment. “A huge thank you to the talented cast, producers and crews for their tireless commitment and dedication, which has clearly paid off with audiences making these series must-see television on both NBC and next day on Peacock.”
Congrats to both shows.

The rational decision NBC made about The Irrational |

While the networks are announcing the fake Fall schedules, NBC is announcing which series that debuted in the real Fall is getting additional episodes.
The Irrational, which stars Jesse L. Martin, is getting one additional episode. They filmed seven episodes before the WGA strike started in May.
But, according to Deadline, the news isn’t all good at the Peacock network. Lopez vs Lopez had its episode order cut from 13 to 10.
However, Night Court will still be filming 13 episodes for the revival’s second season.

NBC’s Extended Family begins filming on November 17th |
| November 13th, 2023 under Donald Faison, Jon Cryer, NBC. [ Comments: none ]

Last week, the SAG-AFTRA strike ended after 118 days, and production is finally able to begin again. But then, I read that most shows were expected to start after Thanksgiving.
However, on my Facebook feed today, I saw that NBC’s Extended Family with Jon Cryer, Donald Faison, Abigail Spencer, Sofia Capanna, and Finn Sweeney will begin taping this Friday, and 1iota has tickets for the new sitcom.
It’s really happening! Production is really back! So while CBS announced today that their Fall lineup will debut in February, NBC is making it happen.
However, I should add that 1iota also has tickets for four other multi-camera scripted shows with their start dates: NBC’s Night Court on November 21st, Netflix’s That ’90s Show on December 1st, CBS’s Bob Hearts Abishola on December 5th, and Netflix’s The Upshaws on December 7th.

NBC will air scripted shows in the Fall |
| July 19th, 2023 under NBC, Quantum Leap. [ Comments: none ]
|

While CBS, ABC, and Fox are heavy on unscripted, NBC will be airing scripted episodes in the Fall. Because they knew to plan ahead in case the strikes happened, which they did.
Returning series Quantum Leap, the concluding Magnum, P.I., and Transplant will be joined by newcomers Found and The Irrational in September.
It will be interesting to see if their ratings will surge against their competition. I am assuming they will because I don’t think the viewer can handle that much reality television.
