The upcoming DC/Vertigo adaptation Constantine will air Fridays at 10 p.m. ET/PT on NBC beginning in the fall, paired with the cult-hit supernatural procedural Grimm.That sets up a bit of a “supernatural block” on the network, which seemingly finalized its primetime schedule this morning with a seventh-season renewal for Parenthood, which they had wanted to renew all along but for which they had to come to a financial agreement with the cast. Parenthood‘s sibling series About a Boy (set in the same universe as Parenthood, where its lead character was introduced, in spite of the fact that Parenthood‘s original feature film and the novel and movie that About a Boy are based on are totally unrelated) had already been renewed.They’re the only “genre” offerings in NBC’s primetime lineup to speak of, although their hit series The Blacklist (which will air Mondays at 10 p.m.) already had a lot of geek fans and will likely have a strong Comic Con presence this year considering that it stars Avengers: Age of Ultron villain James Spader.
