Default Re: New Fall TV SHOWS!

You forgot Law & Order: Los Angeles.

...yeah, I'm not too excited about that one either. And I was a fan of the original series up until its cancellation.

I'm kind of intrigued by Under Covers. It looks like a lot of fun. And tangentially, I was trying to think of the last time we had a prime time network TV show with two black leads. I can't think of any.

The problem? It's being touted as "the new show from JJ Abrams." So far, Abrams has generally worked like a liberal activist (I am a liberal activist, so I know what I'm talking about). He comes up with an idea that sounds very appealing for a while but apparently never stops to think about where he's going to go from there. After a little while, it becomes clear that he's just making stuff up as he goes along. And then he quits and leaves other people holding the bag.
