The ratings-challenged NBC freshmen series Best Friends Forever, Bent, Are You There, Chelsea and Awake will not be back for second seasons. None of the midseason shows’ cancellations came as a surprise.
The comedy will return to NBC next month and right back where it was, Thursdays at 8 p.m. That was part of a schedule revamp NBC announced Tuesday, which included the addition of three comedies to its troubled lineup.
