These things are becoming a bit anti-climatic with networks announcing renewals/cancellations ahead of time and, in the case of NBC, releasing the entire fall schedule before the announcement, but nonetheless, it's that nail-biting time we call Network Upfronts Week where our faves get a second chance or an early retirement. Fox was up first and there weren't too many shake-ups. PTR faves Bones and Fringe will retain their Thursday night slots while fellow PTR fave Glee will stay on Tuesdays, but move to an earlier slot (8 p.m.). Glee will also get the coveted post-Super Bowl slot in February. Meanwhile, bubble series Human Target got picked-up, but moves to Friday nights.
Over at NBC, "new" is the buzzword as the network will roll out five new comedies and seven new dramas this fall. On the returning favorites side, Law & Order: SVU will move back to the 9 p.m. slot on Wednesdays where it was earlier this season, PTR fave Chuck will return to Mondays at 8 p.m., and one of TV's best character dramas, Parenthood, returns to Tuesday nights.
Get a closer look at both Fox and NBC's fall schedules after the jump.
