'Southland' renewed by NBC

NBC has ordered 13 more episodes of 'Southland', probably for a fall slot.

'Southland' has delivered solid numbers to NBC in the Thursday 10 p.m. time slot since its debut April 9, and the show has been warmly received by critics. The hard-boiled cop drama will presumably slide to a 9 p.m. berth in the fall, as NBC plans to strip 'The Jay Leno Show' Monday-Friday at 10 p.m. hour.

13 episode orders could be something NBC is doing next fall in order to save more shows. The 'Leno' show eliminates 5 spots from the prime time schedule and 13 episode orders, instead a full 22-26 could give spots to extra shows.

  1. I dont like this show -I have tried but even watching with captions and trying to lighten up the dark background -it just is not entertaining. I like 'LIFE" much better and that was canceled! Why?
