You may want to watch this great 3 minute recap before the 1 hour season finale for "The Office"(Thursday NBC 7). This week we see Jim's response to Pam's big epiphany.
"Friday Night Lights" is officially on the NBC schedule, but hopefully it isn't locked into the 9PM Friday timeslot. If the show were to air at this time next fall, it would be lucky to survive a couple of months. It may be easy to market "Friday Night Lights on Friday night", but the show's base audience is not going to be at home watching at 9 on a Friday night. Hopefully once the series starts to replay, starting Sunday May 27th at 8, it will get good ratings and build an audience that will make NBC give the show a better timeslot.
Some undoubtable good news did come out of NBC's upfronts today.
The entire Thursday lineup will return and both "My Name Is Earl" and "The Office" got orders for 25 episodes next season (This year each had 22 episodes) and 5 of the Office episodes will be an hour long.
We will get a total of 30 episodes of "Heroes" next year to help avoid the viewership loss they have run into with the long layoffs this year. There will be 6 stand alone episodes of "Heroes
: Origins" at some point in the year which will introduce new heroes in self contained stories, which will not continue the main story arc of the 24 regular episodes.
