NBC has announced a spring schedule touted as avoiding repeats and offering "an unprecedented amount of original content"

"Community" is back at 7 p.m. Thursdays as of March 15, with "Parks and Recreation" taking a short break before returning at 8:30 p.m. Thursday, April 19. (At that point, "Up All Night" will have finished its run of 24 episodes.)

"Bent," a comedy starring Amanda Peet and David Walton, debuts at 8 p.m. Wednesday, March 21. The prank show "Betty White's Off Their Rockers" and comedy "Best Friends Forever," starring Jessica St. Clair and Lennon Parham, premiere at 7 and 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, April 4. "Whitney" and "Are You There, Chelsea?" end their seasons March 28.

The Brian Williams news magazine "Rock Center" moves to 9 p.m. Wednesday for five weeks, with "Law & Order: SVU" returning April 11.

"NBC's spring schedule features the highest percentage of original programs in the network's history with only 13 total hours of repeat programming from Sunday to Friday through mid-May," NBC said.

These are NBC's descriptions of its new shows:

• "Bent" is a romantic comedy about a womanizing, surfer dude contractor and his beautiful, no-nonsense, type-A client, who work together to remodel each other's lives as they renovate her Venice, California home. The recently divorced Alex (Amanda Peet, "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip") is a high-strung lawyer who is raising her young daughter, Charlie (Joey King, "Ramona and Beezus") as a single mom. She downsizes into a smaller house and hires charismatic Pete (David Walton, "Perfect Couples"), a free-spirited ladies' man and recovering gambling addict who desperately needs this gig with Alex to jumpstart his life -- and prove that he is no longer a screw-up.
• "Best Friends Forever," from executive producer Scot Armstrong ("Old School," "Hangover 2"), is about old friends, new beginnings and awkward situations. Jessica St. Clair ("Bridesmaids") and Lennon Parham ("Accidentally on Purpose") star as Jessica and Lennon, best friends who live on opposite sides of the country with the men in their lives. When Jessica is served divorce papers, Lennon convinces her to return home to Brooklyn and back into the apartment they used to share. Soon, the girls fall into old habits: movie marathons and late-night, girl-talk sessions -- none of which is good news for Lennon's live-in boyfriend, Joe (Luka Jones, Upright Citizens Brigade).
• "Betty White's Off Their Rockers" (which aired as a sneak peek in January) takes senior stereotypes and blows them out of the water with a cast of sassy septuagenarians who are hip, sexy and ready to party. America's favorite comedy sweetheart sends a fearless band of senior citizens to the streets to pull shockingly hilarious pranks on the younger generation in this outrageously funny "hidden camera" show.
