Betty White's "Off Their Rockers" candid camera show will also return midseason.
Between the Olympics and "America's Got Talent," NBC has more original programming on during the summer than its rivals, and Greenblatt said that the network hopes viewers are enticed by promotions for the new shows.
Besides "Go On," the new NBC shows on in the fall are:
"The New Normal," about a gay couple that invites a surrogate mother into their home as they try to have a baby. Ellen Barkin is featured as the prospective mom's grandmother.
"Animal Practice," a comedy about a veterinarian who learns his ex-lover is taking over his business.
"Guys With Kids," a comedy executive produced by Jimmy Fallon. The show is what it sounds like: three guys in their 30s trying to hold onto their youth despite being new fathers. Jamie Lynn Sigler of "The Sopranos" and Tempestt Bledsoe of "The Cosby Show," are featured.
"Revolution," a J.J. Abrams action series where the world is plunged back into a time when electricity doesn't work.
"Chicago Fire," a drama about a fire rescue unit from "Law & Order" executive producer Dick Wolf.
Midseason shows include a comedy about a president and first lady played by Bill Pullman and Jenna Elfman, a comedy with Dane Cook as a foulmouthed DJ forced to share his microphone with a feminist and a drama about Hannibal Lecter.
