UPDATE: here’s what NBC is planning on doing, via the Hollywood Reporter:
With second-year comedy Up All Night going on an extended hiatus from December to April/May to shift from a single-camera comedy to a multicam, Parks and Recreation will move up an hour to 8:30 p.m. starting Jan. 17.
Meanwhile, Smash will return Feb. 5 at 9 p.m., with rookie drama Deception (formerly Infamous) set for Jan. 7, comedy 1600 Penn bowing Jan. 10 and Eva Longoria’s unscripted series Ready for Love bowing March 31 and The Voice‘s fourth cycle kicking off March 25-26.
