Big changes are afoot at ABC's "Body of Proof" for Season 3.
TVLine was the first to report thatJohn Carroll Lynch is leaving the ABC medical drama to join "Do No Harm."
Lynch, who played homicide detective Bud Morris in the first two seasons of "Body of Proof," guest starred in the pilot for the NBC crime drama. In "Do No Harm," he had a brief scene as the Na sponsor of protagonist Dr. Jason Cole -- and his alter ego Ian Price -- played by "Rescue Me's" Steven Pasquale.
But Lynch is not the only one moving on from "Body of Proof." According to The Hollywood Reporter, Nicholas Bishop, who played medico-legal investigator Peter Dunlop on the series' first two season, is also leaving "Body of Proof" behind.
TVLine later reported that Sonja Sohn also won’t be returning for "Body of Proof" Season 3. Sohn, who has also been...

John Carroll Lynch will not return to Body of Proof next season, as TV Line reports ABC has chosen not to pick up his contract option.
But the actor has already landed on his dramatic feet.
Lynch, who played Bud Norris since the Body of Proof premiere, will join NBC's Do No Harm as a series regular, following his already-filmed guest-starring role on that new show's pilot.
Do No Harm is a take-off on Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. It stars Steven Pasquale as a paramedic who must wrestle with a neurosurgeon alter-ego.
Will you miss Lynch on the Dana Delany-driven drama? Relive Body of Proof Season 2 now in our TV Fanatic Report Card.
Update: Neither Nicholas Bishop nor Sonja Sohn will return to Body of Proof either for season three.

John Carroll Lynch’s run on Body of Proof is as dead as the vics that his Det. Bud Morris investigated.
Sources tell TVLine exclusively that the Dana Delany-led ABC crime drama, which Lynch has been with since the pilot, didn’t pick up his option for Season 3.
But when a medical examiner-drama door closes, a medical drama window opens. We hear that Lynch is joining NBC’s new procedural Do No Harm as a series regular. The actor had appeared in the pilot as a guest star.

This quick guide is designed to get you excited for some new shows ... and to warn you to curb your enthusiasm for others. Just keep in mind that we'll have full reviews of the final pilots closer to airdate in the fall or midseason.

With the broadcast networks done shoring up their fall schedule, let’s take a look at what genre fans (and the gays) have to look forward to:
While the global conspiracy themed series have fared poorly over the last few years, it’s not stopped the networks from trying them again and again. The problem for most of them is the ability to maintain the quality of the pilot. Expensive series like this sometimes suffer when the week-to-week production kicks in as well as the cost cutting. Still, NBC will give it try again, and hope everyone does not remember The Event from 2010.
From the fertile imaginations of J.J. Abrams comes Revolution. Our entire way of life depends on electricity. So what would happen if it just stopped working? Well, one day, like a switch turned off, the world is suddenly thrust back into the dark ages. Planes fall from the sky,...

I’m fascinated by the current state of NBC. Last among the four major networks. Kept from the very bottom by dynasty deals like the NFL and the Olympics. A shell of its former self still propping up Jay Leno for chuckles every night. But I don’t look at the wilted Peacock with schadenfreude, like many do. Instead, it’s with sadness and nostalgia. What happened?
As an ’80s kid, I grew up watching NBC’s Saturday morning block, “Saved by the Bell,” “Alf,” Cosby, and Will Smith before he was Will Smith. The national news in our house was delivered by Tom Brokaw. I watched Michael Jordan dominate the NBA on NBC. There’s an easy joke in here about “Diff’rent Strokes” and “Baywatch.” In high school and college, we’d gather around episodes of “Friends,” “Scrubs,” “The West Wing,” and other “must see TV.” Conan O...

So we're in the swing upfronts week, and after the blizzard of news Monday (May 14), we settle in to watch the trailers for NBC's very large slate of new series. And somewhere between "Chicago Fire" and "The New Normal," a pattern starts to emerge.
Yes, all these shows are on the same network, but could there be something more? We dig deeper. Suddenly we're like the little boy on "Touch" (which, Ok, is on Fox, but go with us here for a minute), seeing patterns where most people just see randomness. Surely it's a sign of something -- perhaps nothing more than having been up since 5 a.m., but maybe ... there's more. Consider:
"Chicago Fire" introduces us to characters who are dealing with the loss of one of their own a month earlier. So does ...
"Go On," in which we learn Matthew Perry's character lost his wife a month ago.

Say hello to the stars of the 2012-2013 TV season!
NBC kicked things off introducing comedies and dramas featuring new stars and returning favorites. "1600 Penn," one of the network's hottest new comedies features "The Book of Mormon" star Josh Gad, TV veteran Jenna Elfman and Bill Pullman as members of the first family of the United States.
Written by Jon Lovett, one of President Obama's speech writers, "1600 Penn" is sort of like "Modern Family" by way of "The West Wing," according to the stars. And what does Obama have to say about it?
"Well, actually, Obama knows about the show," Gad told The Huffington Post. "From what I understand, he's very excited about it and is obviously excited that one of his guys is working on it. I got to tour the White House, which was very cool. I mean it's going to be authentic … to a degree." Gad...

If New York City seems extra jam-packed with television stars this week, it's because the TV network Upfronts kicked off Monday morning at Radio City Music Hall, where from NBC's new and returning series hit the red carpet and ad execs (and television reporters) got a first look at next season's TV.
NBC has never been known for its dramas, with the exception, perhaps, of the "Law & Order" franchise, and in the 2012-2013 season, president Bob Greenblatt does say that the network is continuing its focus on comedy. Still, they have plugged dramas into some of their most coveted timeslots in the hopes that they can expand the reach of the network beyond the comedy scope.
Whether they'll be successful in that remains to be seen -- but in the meantime, here are our first impressions of their fall TV Drama lineup.

NBC is putting six new scripted shows on the air in the fall, and it's also got six series in the wings for midseason. You can take a peek at five of them below.
The sixth, "Hannibal," might be the most anticipated of the midseason lot, but we can't show you any of that yet -- because it hasn't started filming. The show is based on Thomas Harris' novels and centering on Dr. Hannibal Lecter (yet to be cast) and his relationship with FBI profiler Will Graham (Hugh Dancy).
The midseason comedies:
'Next Caller'
Comedian Dane Cook plays a satellite radio host whose boss (Jeffrey Tambor) hires a female co-host (Collette Wolfe, "Cougar Town") without telling him.
'Save Me'
Anne Heche stars as a hard-drinking woman who has a near-death experience and wakes up believing she's found God, or God has found her. Her husband (Michael Landes) is less certain.

Dozens of shows learned their fate this week so we’re going to run down the latest as they came in on Friday evening. The headline news included series such as Nikita, Happy Endings, Parks & Rec, Body of Proof, and yes, even Whitney being renewed while NBC’s Awake and Harry’s Law were not.
Make note of how many 13-episode seasons were ordered. The thinking may be that the networks are learning that the cable model does work better, because it 1) allows more shows to be added to the lineup and 2) keeps the interest going through the fall instead of trying to carry the momentum through the holiday breaks. That doesn’t give fans many episodes to be excited about, but in the case of Community, any word of renewal, regardless of number was good news.

NBC has officially picked up "30 Rock" for a seventh and final season, and also added another drama -- "Do No Harm" -- to its roster of new shows for 2012-13.
An NBC rep tells Zap2it the "30 Rock" pickup is for 13 episodes and that 2012-13 will be the show's last season. That confirms a couple weeks of speculation that the show's last season would be a short one.
Ratings for "30 Rock" have never been stellar, but the Emmy-winning series fell on harder-than-usual times this season. It's averaging about 4.6 million viewers and a 2.1 rating among adults 18-49. Star Alec Baldwin has also frequently made noise about leaving the show in the past couple months; he's under contract through next season, but he'll be getting his wish.

NBC's pile of new series pickups grows ever larger with orders for the dramas "Do No Harm" and "Notorious."

Updated: NBC has picked up two more drama pilots to series: David Schulner’s Jekyll & Hyde-esque medical drama Do No Harm and sudser Notorious, which will now be called Infamous. It is an interesting pairing as Do No Harm was picked up with the very first batch of NBC pilots and has been a strong frontrunner from the get-go. Meanwhile, Notorious was the last drama pilot ordered on any network but was a late bloomer, building momentum from the moment it was delivered. Related: NBC Bets On Single-Camera Comedies And J.J.
