NBC has said yes to three more shows for the 2010-2011 season. First up is the high-concept drama “The Event,” starring Jason Ritter as a man who, in an attempt to find his missing fiance, exposes one of the biggest cover-ups in American history. Laura Innes (“ER”), Zeljko Ivanek (“Damages”), Sarah Roemer (“Disturbia”) and Scott Patterson (“Gilmore Girls”) co-star, with “Dirty Sexy Money’s” Blair Underwood set to play the U.S. President. Also getting the greenlight are two new comedies: “Outsourced,” about a Midwestern novelty company whose call center is outsourced to India, and “Love Bites,” from writer-producer Cindy Chupak (“Sex and the City”). Becki Newton (“Ugly Betty”) and Jordana Spiro (“My Boys”) star in the hour-long comedy, about two single women whose friends have all gotten married.
