NBC’s full fall schedule, what’s renewed, canceled and moving to streaming

COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) — NBC has announced its 2024-25 season with a fall schedule featuring three new series and the return of popular franchises and breakout hits.

In a news release, the entertainment division revealed a new drama and two new comedies will premiere this autumn. Returning series will be “The Voice,” all three “Chicago” dramas, “Law & Order” and “Law & Order: SVU,” along with the second seasons of “Found” and “The Irrational” and a third season of “Lopez vs. Lopez.”

NBC’s new drama “Brilliant Minds,” is headlined by star Zachary Quinto. Based on actual events, it tells the story of neurologist Oliver Wolf and “his team of interns.” The show promises to highlight the exploration of the human mind along with themes of navigating personal relationships and mental health.

Along with Quinto, the cast lineup includes Tamberla Perry, Ashleigh LaThrop, Alex MacNicoll, Aury Krebs, Spence Moore II, Teddy Sears and Donna Murphy.

A serialized mockumentary, “St. Denis Medical,” is set inside an Oregon hospital that is “underfunded and understaffed.” Stars Wendi McLendon-Covey and Allison Tolman are among dedicated doctors and nurses who “try their best to treat patients while maintaining their sanity.”

NBC is also extending its relationship with country music star Reba McEntire after the singer spent two seasons as a coach on the NBC singing competition “The Voice.”

McEntire, who spent the early aughts on the eponymous “Reba,” is returning to the half-hour comedy format with “Happy’s Place.” In this incarnation, the versatile star will play Bobbie who “inherits her father’s restaurant and is less than thrilled to discover that she has a new business partner in the half-sister she never knew she had.”

Joining McEntie on the show will be Belissa Escobedo, Melissa Peterman, Pablo Castelblanco, Tokala Black Elk and Rex Linn.

The news of another renewal for “Lopez vs. Lopez” comes just after the family sitcom concluded its second season which focused on the “major changes” Mayan and the Lopez family underwent as George took on sobriety.

“Deal or No Deal Island” has been renewed and will return to the midseason schedule.

New midseason shows will include an unscripted nature series narrated by Tom Hanks called “The Americas,” the adventure competition series, “Destination X,” and a procedural crime drama “The Hunting Party.”

NBC has canceled the comedy “Extended Family” led by Jon Cryer, Abigail Spencer and Donald Faison and the dramas “Magnum P.I.,” “Quantum Leap,” and “Transplant.”

“Law & Order: Organized Crime” has been renewed, but is being moved to streaming with Season 5 appearing exclusively on Peacock.
