Not only will NBC heavily promote their new and returning fall series when the Olympic Games begin later this week, they plan to offer extended looks at some new fall shows.
Revolution will get a six minute preview on Saturday, August 4 at approximately 10:54 p.m. EST. The preview will come after a swimming event featuring Michael Phelps.
NBC will also debut episodes of their new comedies Go On and Animal Practice. Go On airs August 8 and Practice airs August 12. Each episode will air commercial free.
After their network debut, the episodes will be available on-line.
They can’t expect many viewers to see it, showing it on a Saturday night, at a late time period and all.
Actually, it’s after the airing of one of Michael Phelps’ big swimming events…so odds are they’ll have a good sized sample audience.
