After a midseason kickoff last season,
Chuck is back on NBC's fall calendar, prematurely leaked by
The Hollywood Reporter.
Chuck returns to its old Monday 8pm slot, followed by two rookies: global-conspiracy-theory drama
The Event and another action drama, this time about a team of US Marshalls who track down fugitives,
Chase.

Fall Lineup>>Wednesday, meanwhile, is
Law and Order night, featuring the spin-off
Law & Order: Los Angeles at 10, while J.J. Abrams drama
Undercovers and
Law & Order: SVU open the night.
Mercy and
Trauma, as well as former NBC flagship
Heroes, are nowhere in sight, although network execs are reportedly in talks to give both
Heroes and
Law & Order "special event" or two-hour finale send-offs next fall.
Thursday night has a minor shakeup, with the old
Community-
30 Rock-
The Office block opening the peacock's comedy night festivities, followed by two rookies, Indian call center-themed
Outsourced and Becki Newton's hour-long romantic-comedy anthology
Love Bites, slated at 10pm.
Friday will see
Outlaw, a drama about a Supreme Court justice who resigns from the bench to open his own firm, paired with
Who Do You Think You Are and
Dateline.
