Upfront: NBC Renews 'Chuck'

NBC renewed “bubble” sitcom Chuck today and credited a season-long, multiplatform advertising and sponsorship deal with Subway for saving the show for another season. The network will divulge its full 2009-10 fall schedule later today.

The network said the multiplatform agreement with the nationwide sandwich chain will offer the client a variety of promotional opportunities, including significant integration into the show, as well as traditional advertising tie-ins.

The network had been on the fence about renewing Chuck for weeks.
