I’ve confirmed this is a 2009/2010 schedule that may be the final one, but is one that NBC is definitely considering. As I expected, it has Chuck returning. Though I do find it surprising that the network would put critical hit Southland on Friday night, usually considered dead air. The last I heard about Law & Order, the financial wrangling for the show with Dick Wolf is settled. But the series probably won’t get a full order and will just fill in gaps in the schedule later on.
MONDAY — TRAUMA, Heroes, Leno
TUESDAY — Biggest Loser, Law & Order: SVU, Leno
WEDNESDAY — Biggest Loser, PARENTHOOD, Leno
THURSDAY — 30 Rock, P&R, Office, COMMUNITY, Leno
FRIDAY — Chuck, Southland, Leno
SATURDAY — Re-runs
SUNDAY — Football
SUNDAY (January) — Dateline, Apprentice, MERCY

Am I losing my mind or am I not seeing regular ‘Law & Order’ anywhere?
Well if this is true, the producers of Chuck better hope they can wrap up whatever storylines are open this season. Friday is the kiss of death, and its almost certain a 4th season will not follow this one.
SouthLand is solid; good cross between Crash & The Shield, w/ great character rotation, & a good range of acting moments. I never miss it, on Hulu, on my phone)
So Earl is either not getting picked up, starting late, or Fox has taken it.
Booring.
OMG. Brandon Tartikoff is rolling in his grave.
Where’s 100 Questions?
Nikki, is there a schedule do you know with Chuck airing on Wednesdays?
leno leno leno leno leno.
variety is the spice of life. compelling entertainment at it’s finest.
Chuck stinks, Southland stinks.
Law and Order is the only quality show, and the only reason to tune into NBC. Where is it?
Friday night is not the kiss of death. It’s where they put the shows that are dying.
I don’t think regular Law & Order was on last fall’s schedule either. It may be consigned to midseasons for the rest of its run.
Well it looks like they’re putting both of their low rated critical darlings on Fridays. It actually isn’t a bad strategy since those shows weren’t gonna get huge ratings no matter where they went and nothing they put on Fridays was gonna do great numbers. But I don’t think they’ll lead with 30 Rock on Thursdays. I think The Office will lead off the night.
I’m worried about 30 Rock at 8. I think it might lose quite a bit of the audience that watched it after the Office. It retained almost all of the Office audience for a while and now its bound to lose some. At least they didnt go with Office II following the Office.
Where’s MEDIUM?
Why do we need two hours of Biggest Loser weekly? I would put Parenthood on Wednesday @ 8pm and slide Southland after it.
At least Chuck is somewhere – and you never know, it may have staying power there if the network likes it enough to fight for it. Thanks to DirecTV, FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS is still kicking (and will be back in the Friday 9pm timeslot come January after DTV gets the first run.)
Forgot to add – I am sure that the original flavor L&O will end up with at least a 13 episode order and a regular timeslot. However, I’d expect it to be delayed until midseason, as it has for the past couple of seasons, and then sub in for one of these shows which NBC will be keeping on a shorter run. (They’ve already said that Heroes is likely to have 18 episodes this season – why they even want that many, I don’t know – but it wouldn’t surprise me to see them run Heroes in its entirety in the fall without repeats and then put L&O on in its slot in the spring, or something.)
Why would NBC put Trauma in front of Heroes and move Chuck to Friday? The geektastic Chuck/Heroes lineup makes Monday Must-See-TV for the girlfriend and myself. Trauma would be a better pairing with Southland in my opinion. Yes Chuck’s ratings have suffered but it got really good the last month of new episodes so why ruin a good thing? Oh yeah, this is NBC/Universal, if it CAN be screwed up they’ll find a way to do it. When will they learn to leave well enough alone.
Where is 100 Questions?
Southland deserves to be aired sunday mornings at 3:30am. A frickin’ joke of a show with horrible writing. Just love how every character overacts with their face. Brilliant Wells, Brilliant!
A shame they’ve moved Chuck to Fridays. I’m betting they flip-flop Chuck & Parenthood when that sinks faster than the Titanic.
KATE! I think I’m losing my mind too!
That has got to be the most boring, tepid lineup I’ve ever seen. I got sleepy just reading abut it. A hearty “Well Done!” to the coke snorting monkeys at NBC – You’ve finally managed to make the Weather Channel more compelling than any show in your lineup.
Does anybody even watch this crap anymore?
Rudi Rose – I hope to god you’re not watching this crap on your phone WHILE you’re driving. Personally, my DVR is better than the phone since nothing is that important I have to watch right now.
Character rotation? Is that what you call it when your two lead characters disappear for an entire episode?
This is just sad. 5 hours given away to Leno. Saturday is for re-runs?
NBC needs a visionary to overhaul the network. I don’t work in TV but is there someone in the vein of Tartikoff working out there? Someone who actually enjoys Television?
rudi rose: with everyone buying huge tv’s and 20.1 surround sound systems…you’re watching tv on your phone? i don’t get it.
