NBC Renews Two Comedies

 

Looks like NBC is keeping two comedies open for another season. 

On Monday, the network announced renewals for two of its comedies: the Reba McEntire-led Happy's Place and St. Denis Medical for a third season. 

"Both St. Denis Medical and Happy's Place have delivered comedic brilliance over their first two seasons, truly connecting with our audience with hilarious characters, and remain hugely important and successful programs to our primetime and Peacock lineup," Lisa Katz, President of Scripted Content at NBC and Peacock, said in a statement. "A huge thank you to the producers, casts, and crews of both shows who have brought these wonderful stories to life and will now continue to tell their laugh-out-loud stories."

Only two NBC comedies remain in limbo: the mockumentaries "Stumble," starring Jenna Lyon, and "The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins," with Tracy Morgan and Daniel Radcliffe. The latter aired one episode after the NFL divisional playoff game on January 18; episode 2 airs on February 23.

NBC has three sitcom pilots for the 2026-2027 TV season. These include a comedy with Katey Sagal and Jane Lynch as best friends and therapists, executive-produced by Krista Vernoff. "Newlyweds,' described as a love story about a woman and a professor marrying after a whirlwind courtship, is from Jamie Lee Curtis. An untitled detective comedy from "Brooklyn Nine-Nine' vets Dan Goor and Luke Del Tredici aims to continue the tradition of L.A. private eyes from Philip Marlowe to today.
