NBC Renews Four, Including 'Vegas,' 'Joey'

NBC's final schedule for the 2005-06 season won't be announced until May, but the network got a head-start on Thursday (March 17), renewing "Crossing Jordan," "Las Vegas" and the freshman comedy "Joey" for another year. In addition, NBC confirmed the rumored renewal of "West Wing" and the two-year extension for "ER," which will keep the medical drama on the air through at least the 2007-08 season.

"The continuing quality and popularity of these series make them the mainstays of our year-to-year schedules," says NBC Entertainment President Kevin Reilly. "Coupled with our innovative current development plans, we feel we have the right mix of returning and fresh, new breakout hits for a promising 2005-06 schedule."

Facing the tough challenge of following in the footsteps of "Friends," "Joey" has struggled at times this season, averaging 11.1 million viewers. Still, NBC can boast that it's the season's top new comedy among adults 18-49 and in total viewers. Of the NBC renewals, "Joey" was probably the one whose future was in the most doubt.

Even after weathering a tough fall opposite "Monday Night Football," "Las Vegas" has averaged 11.7 million viewers per week in its second season. Those numbers are almost identical to the figures the show delivered last year.

Although NBC's Sunday performance has been spotty this season due to weaknesses between 7 p.m. and 9 p.m., "Crossing Jordan" has provided a strong anchor, averaging 12.1 million viewers despite strong competition from ABC's "Boston Legal."

Two of the most decorated dramas in the history of the medium, "The West Wing" and "ER" are averaging 11.4 and 16.5 million viewers respectively.

Thursday's announcement brings a good deal of clarity to NBC's schedule with two months to go before its official upfront presentation. In addition to today's renewals, a number of shows -- including "Scrubs," "Will & Grace," freshman drama "Medium" and the first three "Law & Order" offerings -- had already been picked up for next season. "American Dreams" and "Committed" appear to be dead in the water and the fate of Friday dramas "Third Watch" and "Medical Investigation" is decidedly cloudy and probably won't be determined until after NBC executives have had the opportunity to look over the network's pilot haul.

Kan mij niet echt bekoren deze serie. Echt van die superflauwe humor die tegenwoordig in elke Amerikaanse serie langskomt.
