NBC's 'Day One' reduced in scope


October 01, 2009 The order for NBC's midseason drama series "Day One" has been reduced to the two-hour pilot plus two episodes. After examining the promo budget associated with launching a 13-episode midseason series, NBC executives opted to run the drama as a miniseries, with creator Jesse Alexander said to be on board with the decision. The network still is leaving the door open for "Day One" to continue as a series after the four-hour spring run, citing the success of "Battlestar Galactica" on sibling cable channel Syfy, which also originated as a miniseries.
