NBC has reduced several series’ episode orders lately but now they’re ordering some extras.
It’s been announced that Blindspot, Chicago Fire, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, and Chicago PD will all have one extra installment this season, bringing each’s tally to 23 episodes. They are four of the network’s highest-rated scripted series this season.
The Player and Truth Be Told have been doing very poorly in the ratings and have seen their orders cut to nine and 10 episodes respectively. Both are expected to be cancelled.
New comedies Superstore and Telenovela (formerly Hot & Bothered) have seen their episode orders reduced to 10 as well. It was announced yesterday that these shows will be given a special post-Voice airing later this month to give them some extra exposure.
What do you think? Do you like the Blindspot, Chicago Fire, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, or Chicago PD TV shows? Are you glad to hear there will be an extra episode of each?
I like Chicago Fire and there episodes
Very nice that all these shows are getting an extra episode. NBC is going to need SVU to do especially well after EMPRE ends for the season to get SVU in the TV GUIDE TOP 50 by the end of the season. NBC only had 4 dramas(and ZERO comedies) in that list last season, the worst of the 3 major networks. Getting in 5 or 6 would be very good.
I stopped watching Chigago Fire boring this season same as before .Plots are similar.
I love to watch Chicago Fire,Law&Order Special Victims Unit, Blind spot even if I have to record
Them so I could watch the shows the next day.
Finally an original show getting additional episodes and not being cut down, Blindspot is so good it;s one of the best shows on TV right now and hopefully this will mean a season 2.
Blind spot is such an excellent series I love it my brother loves it everybody talk to loves the series blind spot also Chicago PD and Law and Order SVU they’re all excellent shows thank you for running an extra long season but lift keeping running for renewal for next year all the shows are excellent I can’t imagine you not wanting to keep him going to make millions and millions and millions of dollars does they are all excellent shows!
The player was pretty good but did not have a shot on Thursday night!! A different night would have helped. It would have been interesting to see where the story would have ended up.
Chicago Fire and Law&Order Special Victims Unit
I’ve watched and they have a wonderful cast
The rest of family watches both Chicago Fire @
Law &Order Special Victims UNIT
I enjoy the actors on both shows.
Shame about the player, but happy about the additional episodes of Chicago Fire/PD and Blindspot.
