Abrams<\/strong>, and another in which <strong>John Cho<\/strong> has a role as a regular, have received full season orders from NBC.<\/p>\n<p>The shows are <em>Revolution<\/em> and <em>Go On<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->In <em>Revolution<\/em>, people in a futuristic world struggle to survive and reunite with loved ones in a world where there has been no electricity for fifteen years.<\/p>\n<p><em>Go On<\/em> is a comedy in which a recent widower, Ryan King, tries to get on with life after the death of his wife. Cho plays Stephen, the &#8220;ill-equipped, less-than-evolved male&#8221; boss of King.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re impressed with the imagination and creative direction of the entire team on <em>Revolution<\/em>, not to mention the immediately strong response we got from the audience,&#8221; said <strong>Jennifer Salke<\/strong>, president of NBC Entertainment. &#8220;Ordering the full season of this show is a pleasure. Thanks to <strong>J.J. Abrams, Erik Kripke, Jon Favreau<\/strong>, and everyone at Bad Robot and Warner Bros. Television for their dedication to making a truly unique series. And I personally love to escape into a world where there is no power, the phone doesn&#8217;t ring, and the pace of life slows down &#8212; if only for one hour a week!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re also very proud of our new comedy block of <em>Go On.<\/em>..,&#8221; said Salke. &#8220;In partnering with <strong>Matthew Perry<\/strong> for<em> Go On<\/em>, creator <strong>Scott Silveri<\/strong> has created a comedy with a highly original voice that deftly combines humor and emotion.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re very pleased with early results of the last three weeks of our fall season roll-out,&#8221; said <strong>Robert Greenblatt<\/strong>, Chairman, NBC Entertainment. &#8220;The strategy for this season was to draft off the promotional platform of the Olympics and then begin our season early and strong. I think we&#8217;ve accomplished both of those goals, yet we know it&#8217;s a long season and there&#8217;s much work ahead of us. We are so appreciative of all the great talent that is working so hard on these shows.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two shows, one produced by J.J.
