Is your favorite NBC TV series returning or has it already been cancelled? What TV shows have been renewed for another season? How many episodes have been ordered? Here’s a list of all of the regular NBC series that have aired (or are expected to air) during the 2011-12 season (roughly September 2011 through August 2012).
Using this “cheat sheet” you can tell where your favorite NBC TV series stands; how many episodes are in the current season, when it’ll be back on the air and, of course, if it’s already been renewed or cancelled.
If you can’t find a particular NBC program on this list, it may have been cancelled last season (2010-11) or perhaps the one before (2009-10). For a list of cancelled shows from all networks, you can go here. It may also be possible that we missed something so feel free to let us know in the comments below.

never contacted a network, but extremly upset with the cancellaton of Harry’s Law. We know you want to cater to the under fifty group, with love in the wild trash. Well our family has decided to elimanate prime time viewing of nbc and noting their sponsors, will also if possible not use their services or products.
Why do you keep AWFUL shows like “How I Met Your Mother” and cancel a wonderful show like Harry’s Law?? I do not understand this. I will miss Harry’s Law. RIP Kathy Bates.
NBC is a bunch of idiots for cancelling Awake. This is the best show I’ve ever seen for a long time, properly because it require brain to appreciate this show and they don’t have any. They don’t give the show a chance, how is it that crap like “Whitney” gets 2nd season and those reality show go on for 13-14 seasons I can never comprehend. They cancelled Conan O’Brien and now this show, I will boycott NBC for good because apparently all good shows get cancelled at NBC
I am very sorry Harry’s Law got canceled, it was a wonderful show, get rid of those reality shows they are horrible
I am so very disappointed that Harry’s Law will not return. It is a great show! And, Awake last night was terrific. What are they thinking? They are not giving these shoes time to develop. They aren’t typical programs and need time to build an audience. They need to look at the big picture. I could do on forever…
I am so disappointed that Harry’s Law, Awake & Alcatraz (Fox) were cancelled. I agree, too many stupid reality shows. It seems if people have to actually use their brain, they can’t handle it. Too bad. We can only pray for a reprieve.
I’m so angry that NBC cancelled Awake. It was the best show this network’s had in years.
I am truly disappointed and disgusted with NBC for cancelling Harry’s Law. I read in the paper that “it just does not agree with people in the 18-49 age bracket”!!! Well, what about us retired people? Do you really think we like those stupid reality shows or stupid, stupid idiotic comedies that you air? You don’t know a good thing when you’ve got it. And who has more time to sit and watch NBC than us?????? I don’t know who schedules the shows for you but they should be fired!!!!! Reality shows and cheap made comedies that do nothing to enhance society except to show how truly stupid you all are – SHAME ON NBC FOR NEGLECTING THE WISHES OF SO MANY! BRING BACK HARRY’S LAW – PLEASE!!!
I thought Missing was the best show on TV. Whoever cancelled that show should be
fired. I will stop watching ABC
I can not believe they are canceling Harry’s Law and the Firm. Those are great shows with some substance to them and entertaining. Thank God we have cable channels with great shows like Royal Pains, Suits, Leverage, Drop dead diva, etc. NBC can keep their stupid comedy shows and reality shows. I’m done!!!!!
I am so disappointed that Bent was cancelled. What is wrong with these people. It was a really good show. So much better than a lot of the other rubbish around.
I really enjoyed awake…what a concept ! But of course…I like it so off it goes…I hope someone else is smart enough to pick this up!
I can not believe that Awake is not getting a second season! With all the trash on tv now it was really nice to watch something that was worth my time! My husband and i both really enjoyed this show. Sad that the reality shows beat out a great show!
Harry’s Law is a really good show I can not believe it is being canceled while really bad trash is still being shown. Not everyone wants reality shows!
I have not watched regular tv in years. This season was a big surprize. I was totally devoted to The Firm and Awake. What wonderful shows! I am so disappointed and upset at their cancellation. Some other shows didn’t deserve any credit at all. BUMMER
