NBC is joining CBS in the early pickup game, as the network has ordered a second season of its freshman drama "Grimm."
Akela Cooper, a writer on the series, broke the news on her Twitter account this morning: "Walk into the office this morning & our showrunners David Greenwalt & Jim Kouf tell me the good news: #Grimm is picked up 4 a second season!"
The Friday series delivered 5.0 million viewers and a 1.5 rating/4 share among adults 18-49 in its most recent airing. The latter number goes up by 61 percent on average in additional time-shifted viewing in "live plus seven day" ratings.
