"Outsourced" stays in-house for NBC, and for Spring, Texas newcomer Ben Rappaport, comedy veterans Matt Walsh, Diedrich Bader, and actors Rebecca Hazlewood, Rizwan Manji, Parvesh Cheena, Anisha Nagarajan and a great array supporting cast of characters, a full season order from NBC was just what the Doctor ordered for a comedy that caught a ton of shrapnel from cranky, overly harsh TV critics.

NBC has given breathing room to three of its new Fall 2010-11 series:

“The Event,” “Law & Order: Los Angeles” and “Outsourced.”

Today Angela Bromstad, President, Primetime Entertainment, NBC and Universal Media Studios had this to say:

“We are pleased with the quality of ‘The Event,’ ‘Law & Order: Los Angeles’ and ‘Outsourced,’ and feel they are an important part of helping to re-build our schedule and our studio pipeline,” said Bromstad. “We believe in these new series and the creative auspices behind them.”
