NBC Renews Revolution, Grimm, Parenthood, SVU, and Chicago Fire

Stupid wordplay time! The Revolution will be televised again, things are looking Grimm for NBC, congrats on your Parenthood NBC, and uhhh, something about Law & Order: SVU and Chicago Fire. NBC has renewed all five of those shows for new seasons. All of them will get 22-episode runs for 2013-2014, which is particularly good news for the perennial bubble show Parenthood, which hasn’t had a full season since its sophomore year in 2010-2011.

Though many of these shows were considered bubble riders, none of the renewals are too surprising. NBC’s bar was always going to be low given its current wasteland of successful programming, and the network needs SOME returning dramas for its 2013-2014 schedule. The numbers these shows are putting up wouldn’t've given them a chance five years ago, but hey, this is the new era of network television! Glaringly absent is Bryan Fuller’s Hannibal, which has received enough critics’ praise and steady ratings in its early going to warrant at least a long look for a second season. Deception and Smash will almost certainly be canceled.

NBC says this was the drama round, so there’s no word yet on Parks & Recreation, Community, Whitney, Guys with Kids, or anything else I may have forgotten. Look for those announcements to trickle out in the coming weeks.

Law & Order: SVU: Kathryn Erbe Returns for ‘Big’ Fin Episode

When Law & Order:SVU‘s Fin finds himself in danger this May, an old friend will be around to lend a hand.

KathrynErbe‘s Alexandra Eames will make her second appearance of the season in the May 8 episode, executive producer Warren Leight tells TVLine exclusively.

The Law & Order: Criminal Intent mainstay will show up when someone related to Fin’s past as a narcotics officer begins causing trouble for the SVU detective . What happens is “so big, she’s called in,” Leights says, adding that the idea for the episode originated with its star Ice T.

“He said, ‘I saw after that Rollins-and-her-sister episode, the fans really like it when we’re in harm’s way,” the EP recalls. “‘And don’t forget, I used to be a narcotics officer. There’s got to be a lot of people who want me dead.’”

Hip-hop artist 2 Chainz also appears in the episode as “someone Fin dealt with in the past,” Leight says. “There’s a lot of bad blood from Fin’s past involved in it.”

Emilio Rivera (Sons of Anarchy), Yul Vasquez (Magic City) and Cathy Moriarty (Raging Bull) also appear in the episode.

Law & Order: SVU: Sons of Anarchy’s Theo Rossi Is Out for Justice

Fresh off the Sons of Anarchy Season 5 finale, Theo Rossi, who plays Juice on the FX biker drama, will guest-star on Law & Order: SVU.

TVLine has learned that Rossi will appear in the Jan. 2 episode of NBC’s long-running procedural as Enrique Rodriguez, a working-class Catholic who is determined to seek justice for his sister when he finds that she was part of a church cover-up.

The potential church scandal comes to light as Detective Tutuola angles to prove his ex-brother-in-law (Boardwalk Empire‘s LaRay Harvey) innocent of assaulting a priest (True Blood’s Denis O’Hare).

During his run on Sons, Rossi has between seasons also guested on series such as Alcatraz (which starred his real-life girlfriend Sarah Jones), Hawaii Five-0 and Lie to Me.

Law & Order: SVU: Malcolm in the Middle Mom to Battle DA Barba

Law & Order: SVU district attorney Rafael Barba (Raul Esparza) better bring his A-game.

The long-running NBC procedural has snagged Malcolm in the Middle mom Jane Kaczmarek to battle the DA in an upcoming episode, TVGuide.com has learned.

Kaczmarek will play Pam James, the Suffolk County district attorney who lands the same murder case as DA Barba. However, while James arrests an SVU rape victim for the crime, Barba and the SVU team like a different suspect for the murder. The trials start simultaneously and both prosecutors must fight for a conviction before the other can destroy their case. There is not yet an airdate for the episode.

Kaczmarek is best known for playing Malcolm in the Middle‘s controlling and crazed matriarch Lois on the Fox family comedy, for which she earned seven Emmy nominations. She more recently starred as a judge on the TNT legal drama Raising the Bar and currently recurs on Whitney as Whitney’s mom. Kaczmarek also guest-starred on the flagship Law & Order back in 1994.

Law & Order: SVU airs Wednesdays at 9/8c on NBC. Are you excited to see Kaczmarek go toe-to-toe with Barba? Who do you think will come out on top?
