Looks like NBC hasn’t given up on Trauma, which is good for the Trauma fans who were hearing cancellation rumors.
On Thursday, NBC ordered three more episodes of Trauma, according to E! Online.
The only problem is it may be awhile before the three remaining episodes set to air after Christmas plus the three additional episodes just ordered will air. That’s because NBC’s winter lineup is already full with Chuck, Heroes and Leno, E! said.
On Monday, Nov. 23, Trauma’s Thanksgiving episode “Going Home” will air at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

Sneak peek at NBC’s new fall shows

Here are previews to four of the shows NBC has just added to its fall lineup – dramas Trauma, Mercy and Parenthood and comedy Community.
I think my favorites from the previews are Mercy and Trauma. Overall, I think they look like pretty interesting shows – nothing too goofy or over the top. Plus, there’s lots of good talent in these shows. Keep watching for more posts about these new shows.
