The future for "Grimm" is bright: NBC has ordered a second season of the fairy tale procedural. NBC confirmed it handed out an early Season 2 order to the freshman Friday night drama. TVLine was the first to report the news.

"Grimm" premiered to 6.7 million viewers, one of the strongest premieres of NBC's 2011-2012 season. It's also one of three new NBC dramas left on the Peacock's schedule: "Grimm" and NBC's midseason outings "Awake" and "Smash" are the only new dramatic additions still standing. NBC's other new dramas -- "Prime Suspect," "The Playboy Club" and "The Firm" -- have been removed from the schedule.

In its Fridays at 9 p.m. time slot, "Grimm" has been averaging pretty consistent ratings. Its most recent episode brought in 5.2 million viewers. "Grimm's" Friday night competition includes "What Would You Do?" on ABC, "CSI: NY" on CBS and "Kitchen Nightmares" on Fox.

"Grimm" stars David Giuntoli as a police detective and descendant of the Brothers Grimm who sees fairy tale characters hiding in the real world. The show is one of two fairy tale-themed dramas to premiere on network TV this season. ABC's "Once Upon a Time" has been a ratings hit. The genre's success has spawned new pilots at both ABC and The CW: Both networks are taking on the "Beauty and the Beast" tale.

NBC官方今天对外宣布,他们续订了秋季新剧中表现出色的《格林》第二季,成为2011-2012播出季首个获得第二季续订的新剧,该剧去年11月曾获得了第一季全集22集的预订。

这部讲述格林后人如何与世间魔鬼斗争的童话罪案剧集在首播以来一直有着比较稳定的收视率和观众群体,在与FOX电视网《危机边缘》和CW电视网《邪恶力量》的直接对话中,平均每集有480万观众观看,18-49年龄段的收视率1.5,这对于收视惨淡的NBC来说已经是不小的惊喜,在剧集收视举步维艰的NBC这无异于一颗救命稻草。

《格林》讲述了一位发现自己是格林后人的侦探Nick Buckhardt的故事。猎人姑妈有一天意外造访,这才让他得知自己原来肩负着家族对抗世间怪物的使命,在这一过程中他一边学习古老的知识和技能一边经历着成长和未知世界的探索。剧中塞拉斯·威尔·米切尔Silas Weir Mitchell饰演梦露,一个决心帮助Nick以开始自己新生活的“大灰狼”,拉塞尔·霍斯比Russell Hornsby饰演Nick的警察搭档Hank,Nick的女朋友Juliette由比茜·图诺克Bitsie Tulloch饰演。

这部画面色彩冷艳的童话罪案剧正在美国时间每周五晚9点NBC热播中。
