This Just In: NBC Wants to Buy More Chuck!

Zachary Levi, Chuck Trae Patton/NBC

• Chuck: Greetings from beautiful Manhattan, TV fans! We'll be here all week covering all the breaking news from the five major broadcast networks, starting with the very happy news (just confirmed by studio Warner Bros.) that Chuck will return to NBC for at least 13 episodes next season. (Don't know if you heard, but Zachary Levi's Chuck now knows kung fu, so the upcoming third season is guaranteed to be kickass!) The "catch," if you can call it that, is that NBC wants a lower-budget version of the show, but that just sounds like status quo in this economy. We'll take the hit! Congrats to all who helped #savechuck!

• Bones: Hart Hanson, the creator and show runner of Bones, tweeted that Fox has given them the official green light for season five. (BTW, what did you guys think of the season-four finale? Disgruntled or delighted?)

• Medium: If NBC can't find room for cult-fave Medium on its Jay Leno-dominated schedule, CBS network may pick up the series (which is produced by corporate cousin CBS Paramount Television).

• True Blood: And in a little non-upfronts news, True Blood character one-sheets are now online! Mmm...bloody Eric.
