 Re: Upfronts: 2014 edition
NBC just picked up "Mission Control" with Krysten Ritter and produced by Will Ferrell/Adam McKay to series.
CBS picked up:
"The Odd Couple" (Matthew Perry reboot) "The McCarthys" (multi-cam sitcom with Jack McGee and Laurie Metcalf) "NCIS: New Orleans" "Madam Secretary" (Tea Leoni drama) "Stalker" (Maggie Q/Dylan McDermott thriller from Kevin Williamson) "Scorpion" (Katherine McPhee procedural) "Battle Creek" (Vince Gilligan drama)
"How I Met Your Dad" might not get an order after all. The buzz was premature.

NBC has picked up the Kate Walsh comedy "Bad Judge," also from Will Ferrell's production arm.

 Re: Upfronts: 2014 edition
"Selfie" has got to be the worst title of a TV show since...well, I dunno, a long time.

 Re: Upfronts: 2014 edition
Yeah I agree. There is more competition on Thursday for it. I also see they are pretty much giving up on comedy on Thursday.

 Re: Upfronts: 2014 edition
'Constantine' is set up for failure in that slot. Why not at least start it out before 'Grimm'?? If it doesn't work, they can always slot it after.

 Re: Upfronts: 2014 edition
NBC has the right idea with its horror-themed Fridays but it's just not the right time. Maybe 20 years ago.
For some reason, I think NBC might be all right this year.

 Re: Upfronts discussion: 2014 edition
Sending The Blacklist to Thursdays actually seems like the right decision to me. Grey's and the CBS comedies are aging, and NBC desperately needs to regain some kind of foothold on the night.
I'm very OK with this being the final season for both Parenthood and Parks/Rec. I just wanted them to go out on their own terms with planned endings.
