Some shocking (to me, at least) news this week in the world of TV. Do No Harm has been cancelled by NBC after just two episodes. I guess if I had been paying more attention I may have seen it coming. The premiere, which aired on January 31st, had reportedly been the lowest rated series premiere in the history of the major networks. Episode 2 did even worse.
With some busy time at work cutting into my schedule, I had to hold off on the premieres of Do No Harm and The Americans. I wasn’t sure if I would like Do No Harm, so I decided to watch it first figuring I could always turn it off if it was a dud. What happened was, I actually enjoyed it. It had an interesting mix of medical drama and personal drama. Though I must admit that I was unsure of how they could keep the Jekyll/Hyde aspect going for an extended period of time. Felt more like a miniseries or one season type story.

In case you hadn’t heard, the Television Critics had their annual event this week where the networks show them what’s coming up for the new TV season. It’s a fun event that we go to sometimes, although not this time. We were on vacation. You know how it goes.
Anyway, that’s okay because we got some cool previews for the return of some of our favorite shows for you today. Among these are Grimm, Revolution, Deception and 1600 Penn.
Check out all the previews after the break. Look for these shows to return to NBC over the next month or two.

We know NBC has made some not-so-friendly decisions in the past with our favorite shows, such as their decision to jerk around the millions (thousands?) of Community fans out there until we got what we wanted. Now they’re trying to get us interested in a brand new slate of comedies, dramas, and alternative series this Fall.
Starting off with the brand new batch of comedies, here’s what the official press release had to show us.
The season’s new fall comedies are “Go On,” “The New Normal,” “Animal Practice” and “Guys with Kids.” Other mid-season comedies include “Save Me,” “1600 Penn” and “Next Caller.”
The new fall dramas are “Revolution” and “Chicago Fire,” while “Do No Harm,” “Infamous” and “Hannibal” also will join the lineup in mid-season.
In addition, new alternative series include “Stars Earn Stripes,” “Howie Mandel’s White Elephant,” “Ready for Love,” and “Surprise with Jenny McCarthy.”
“Go On” — Misery loves company. Unless you’re sportscaster Ryan King (Matthew Perry, “Friends,” “Mr. Sunshine”) who thinks misery should just be left alone. After taking some time off, Ryan – who recently lost his wife in a car accident – is now ready to get back to work. And while he seems like his same old charming, cocky self, his boss won’t set him back on the air until he seeks counseling. So, Ryan reluctantly joins a support group with one goal in mind: get in, get out and get back on the radio as quickly as possible.
