NBC Resurrects Thursday Night Comedy Block

BURBANK, October 25: NBC is moving its new comedy 30 Rock to Thursday nights and is bringing Scrubs back to the schedule, forming a two-hour block of
sitcoms with the hits My Name is Earl and The Office.

The reshuffle kicks off on November 30, following a special
“super-sized” night of comedy on November 16, with three 40-minute episodes of My
Name Is Earl, The Office and 30 Rock.

Kevin Reilly, the network’s president of entertainment,
commented, "We are excited about the prospect of two-hours of top-notch
comedy on Thursday nights, which includes the return of Scrubs. We will stay on-brand with the best comedy block on
television, which will position us for the future on the night."

Starting November 22, NBC will feature various specials on
Wednesdays from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m., which currently features 30 Rock and Twenty Good Years. It is not clear if Twenty Good Years will return to the schedule.
