Universal City, Calif. – NBC has given full-season pickups to three of its new fall 2010-11 series, The Event, Law & Order: Los Angeles and Outsourced. The announcement was made by Angela Bromstad, president, primetime entertainment, NBC and Universal Media Studios. The Event is an emotional, high-octane drama that follows Sean Walker (Jason Ritter, The Class), an everyman who investigates the mysterious disappearance of his would-be fiancée, Leila (Sarah Roemer, Disturbia), and unwittingly begins to expose the biggest cover-up in US history. Law & Order: Los Angeles fuses the classic ripped- from-the-headlines storytelling with the distinctive backdrop of LA. The drama follows Detectives Rex Winters (Skeet Ulrich, Jericho) and Tomas “TJ” Jaruszalski (Corey Stoll, Midnight in Paris) who are members of the L.A.P.D.’s elite Robbery Homicide Division. Outsourced is NBC’s popular new workplace comedy series centered on a catalog-based company, Mid America Novelties, which sees its call center suddenly outsourced to India. When Manager Todd Dempsy moves there, culture shock ensues when Todd inherits a sales team.
