Julia (Debra Messing) and Michael (guest star Will Chase) must face up to the consequences of their actions.'

In a new interview with Reuters, NBC's president of programming, Bob Greenblatt told the news service that he was 'not at all disappointed in its performance. The expectations were never that 'Smash' would be the biggest hit on television,' Greenblatt said by telephone.

(A 2.3 rating equates to 6.6 million viewers)' Regarding the show's likelihood of garnering a second season, they report that 'Greenblatt said the answer is most likely yes, but he did not rule out moving the show to a new day or time next season.'
