The Matthew Perry-led comedy Go On will premiere following coverage of the 2012 Summer Olympic Games, and Animal Practice, starring Justin Kirk, will premiere after the Olympics' closing ceremonies.
Among the other noteworthy premieres, NBC's singing competition series The Voice will kick off its first-ever fall cycle with a two hour premiere on September 10 at 8/7. And although NBC is launching several new comedies early, the network is holding back returning comedies 30 Rock, Community and Whitney until October.
