NBC Renews Parenthood and Gives 30 Rock One Final
Season

post from BuzzSugar on 10 May 2012 06:28:42 PM. © BuzzSugar

Good news for Parenthood fans who have been anxiously awaiting news on the bubble show: it's been picked up for a fourth season! NBC has also given the green light to a seventh season of 30 Rock - but it will be the last. The season will also be shortened, giving the show 13 episodes to wrap things up. I'm happy about this news across the board: I've been pulling for Parenthood since the beginning, and it feels time for 30 Rock to be put to bed. How do you feel about this news?

Ashton Kutcher Gets A New 'Punk'd'

post from TV on HuffingtonPost.com on 10 May 2012 06:14:49 PM. © TV on HuffingtonPost.com

"Cougar Town" isn't the only new show coming to TBS -- the network has ordered two new comedy series, "Deon Cole's Black Box" starring the "Conan" writer/performer, and "Who Gets the Last Laugh?" from "Punk'd" co-creators Ashton Kutcher and Jason Goldberg's Katalyst production company.

"Deon Cole's Black Box" let's the Emmy-nominated comedian give his take on the most outrageous viral videos, riffing on gender and racial stereotypes, politics and more. TBS has ordered six episodes of the show, which counts Conaco's Conan O'Brien and Jeff Ross among its executive producers.

"Who Gets the Last Laugh?" (which is still a working title) pits two comedians against each other for what they're calling "the ultimate prank challenge." Each comedian concocts an elaborate prank, then a live audience decides which one was the funniest. Goldberg will serve as showrunner and will executive produce along with Kutcher.

"'Deon Cole's Black Box' and 'Who Gets the Last Laugh?' come to us from some of today's brightest comedic voices, affirming the power of the TBS brand to comedy lovers," Michael Wright, president and head of programming for TBS, said in a press release. "These shows are not only extremely funny but also irreverent, provocative and a little bit subversive, making them ideal for fans of TBS's 'Conan,' 'The Big Bang Theory' and 'Family Guy.'"

Along with the acquisition of "Cougar Town" from ABC, TBS is also launching three more new comedy series: "Men at Work," starring Danny Masterson and James Lesure (premieres Thurs., May 24, 10 p.m. ET); "Sullivan & Son" starring comedian Steve Byrne (premieres Thurs., July 19, 10 p.m. ET); and "Wedding Band," starring Brian Austin Green, Harold Perrineau, Melora Hardin and Jenny Wade (premiere dateTBD).

Tell us: Are you excited for more TBS original programming? Will you watch either of these comedy shows?

What Are The Fates Of Fox's Animated Comedies

post from TV on HuffingtonPost.com on 10 May 2012 06:11:28 PM. © TV on HuffingtonPost.com

Fox has renewed "Family Guy" and "American Dad," but the future remains unclear for "The Cleveland Show," according to The Hollywood Reporter.

This will be Season 11 for "Family Guy" and Season 8 for "American Dad," each of which will have the standard 22 episodes. "Family Guy" and "American Dad" air back-to-back on Fox's Sunday Animation Domination block, which also includes "The Cleveland Show."

Though it's good news for two of Seth MacFarlane's animated comedies, Fox is postponing its decision on a Season 5 of "The Cleveland Show," which is a spinoff of "Family Guy." The show, however, will see a Season 4.

As for the rest of Fox's Sunday night animated comedy stapes, "The Simpsons" will be back for two more seasons, "Bob's Burgers" has been renewed for Season 3, "Allen Gregory" has been canceled and things aren't looking good for Fox's another freshman in the bunch, "Napoleon Dynamite."

In other Fox renewal and cancellation reports, "Touch" was renewed today, while "Alcatraz," "The Finder," "I Hate My Teenage Daughter" and "Breaking In" officially got the boot.
