Can you blame them? Most of the new fall shows will premiere in advance of the start of the season. NBC’s Fall 2012 premieres capitalize on the promotional platforms provided by the network’s coverage of the 2012 Summer Olympic Games, the finale of “America’s Got Talent” and the return of “The Voice” and “Sunday Night Football.” The rollout of NBC’s Fall 2012 season begins with commercial-free sneak previews of the new comedies “Go On” (Wednesday, Aug. 8th) after the evening’s coverage of the 2012 Summer Olympic Games and “Animal Practice” on Sunday, 8/12, following the Closing Ceremonies of the Summer Olympics.
One day after the conclusion of the Olympics, NBC will debut the new competitive series “Stars Earn Stripes” with a special two-hour episode on Monday, 8/13 (8-10 p.m. ET), followed on the same night with the advance season premiere of “Grimm” (10-11 p.m. ET).
“The Voice” returns on 9/10 (8-10 p.m.), handing-off to encore sneak peeks of “Animal Practice” (10-10:30 p.m. ET) and “Go On” (10:30-11 p.m. ET). The NFL Kick-Off Special 2012 and first NFL game of the season on Wednesday, 9/5, followed by Football Night in America (7:00-8:15 p.m.) and Sunday Night Football’s (8:15-11 p.m.) return in their regular timeslots on 9/9 kick off a launch week that includes the 9/11 time-period premiere of “Go On” (9-9:30 p.m.) followed by “The New Normal” (9:30-10 p.m.), a sneak peek of “Guys With Kids” on 9/12 (10-10:30 p.m.) after the next to last episode of “America’s Got Talent,” and the season premiere of “Parenthood” on 9/11 (10-11 p.m.).
To provide additional sampling, the new comedy “The New Normal” will re-broadcast its first episode on Thursday, 9/13 (10-10:30 p.m. ET), following the season finale of “America’s Got Talent.”
Among other new NBC series for fall, the drama “Revolution” premieres on Monday, 9/17 (10-11 p.m. ET); and the drama “Chicago Fire” debuts on Wednesday, 10/10 (10-11 p.m. ET). “Animal Practice” will start in its regular day and time on Wednesday, 9/26 (8-8:30 p.m. ET) followed by the time period premiere of “Guys with Kids” (8:30-9 p.m. ET).
