On Tuesday, NBC becomes the latest network to announce their fall schedule and just like CBS, they took it as business as usual approach.
NBC's pandemic-era fall slate will boost the return of 16 programs from Sunday Night Football (which will kick off with Cowboys and Rams Sept. 23), the top-rated This Is Us and the #OneChicago will return too.
"With the reopening of the Universal lot for select productions this week, we are confident that our schedule will premiere intact later this fall," said entertainment president chairman Paul Telegdy in a statement.
The new Elliot Stabler-centric Law and Order Organized Crime will lead out of SVU on Thursdays. While the recent renewal of Zoey's Playlist will return in the fall. And with The Voice returning, Gwen Stefani will return taking Nick Jonas' chair.
Here's the fall schedule:

8/7c The Voice

It looks like the network is staying to what CBS is doing but only adding one new series to the fall schedule. I'm super excited about the new Law & Order spinoff and even more than it's teaming with SVU on Thursday nights. After the reveal of the fall schedule, I'm a little confident that we'll see new episodes this fall. The one thing that worries me is how will the new standard be like.
