| NBC announced a 52-week primetime schedule at its early
"in-front" presentation to advertisers Wednesday that included
themed primetime hours.
|
| Starting next season, 8 p.m. will be "family hour," 9 p.m. is "blockbuster hour" and 10 p.m. is the "adult themes" hour, said network co-chair Ben Silverman. |
| The move steps away from network's previous pledge to only schedule unscripted shows in the 8 p.m. hour, while reserving 10 p.m. for more grown-up fare. |
| The schedule includes long-rumored additions such as a series remake of "Knight Rider" and a spin-off of "The Office," as well as new titles like the Christian Slater spy series "My Own Worst Enemy" and the King David retelling "Kings" starring "Deadwood" star Ian McShane. |
