The Chicago Tribune paints a grim picture for the future of the ultra-expensive Smash. Looking at the survival rate for new shows, only three: Grimm, Up All Night, and Whitney have made it on NBC. Robert Greenblatt, NBC president, stands by Smash proclaiming that it was never designed to be the most popular show on TV. Greenblatt was chosen for NBC because he had the ability to create quality dramas such as Weeds and Dexter on cable TV. Smash will be his first big test in translating that formula to a wider audience.
