Chuck renewed for a fifth and final season on NBC
The Chuck pick-up comes with a caveat though: the upcoming fifth season will be Chuck's last. NBC ordered 13 new episodes of Chuck, which means the show will likely wrap up sometime in December, with a new series taking over the Monday 8 PM time slot. Chuck averaged a 2.0 rating with 5.6 million viewers per episode this past season.
As far as The Event, the show may have new life, even after getting the ax from NBC. There are rumors that The Event producers are currently shopping the show to other distributors for another season. Netflix is one of the potential distributors, since they recently started venturing into original programming by picking up the series House of Cards. Other cable networks are also reportedly in the mix to pick up The Event. Here's what series creator Nick Waters had to say about continuing The Event.
"We have a dedicated fan base, and we promised them we will deliver one way or another and will continue to tell our stories."
It isn't known if Law & Order: Los Angeles is being shopped to other networks at this time.

The Event is pretty good. I'm sure ScFy will pick it up, they already show repeats of the show.

I'm not gonna rant. Not worth the caps. Here's an idea. Send The Event to SyFy and L&O:LA to TNT or USA

The Event is good, L&O;LA might just get pick up from USA networks.

I like Chuck. It's cheap and goofy at times but I think a 5 year run is nice. T.V would be better if they greenlit shows for 3-5 seasons at a time. I hate shows that run for years and get cancelled suddenly. Too many shows don't get closure. I would watch alot more stuff if I was guaranteed an arc and an ending.

Kinda choked that V got cancelled, though. That show kept getting better.

I have like 8 episodes of The Event post-break downloaded that I haven't watched yet. I guess I'll wait to hear if another network picks it up before I either watch them or delete them.
