Quantico

Comedy

Dr Ken

quote:

Doctor-turned-actor/comedian Ken Jeong (“Community,” “The Hangover”), plays Dr. Ken, a brilliant physician with no bedside manner.

The Muppets

quote:

The Muppets return to primetime with a contemporary, documentary-style show.

This is a more adult Muppet show, for “kids” of all ages.

The Real O'Neals

quote:

A fresh take on a seemingly perfect Catholic family whose lives take an unexpected turn when surprising truths are revealed. Instead of ruining their family, the honesty triggers a new, messier chapter where everyone stops pretending to be perfect and actually starts being real.

“The Real O’Neals” stars Martha Plimpton as Eileen, Jay R. Ferguson as Pat, Noah Galvin as Kenny, Matthew Shively as Jimmy, Bebe Wood as Shannon and Mary Hollis Inboden as Jodi.

Uncle Buck

quote:

Based on the hit movie of the same name, Uncle Buck (Mike Epps) is a fun-loving but irresponsible guy who needs a job and a place to stay. By happy coincidence, his nieces’ and nephew’s nanny has just quit and his brother and sister-in-law need his help. His unconventional personality may just make him the right fit for the family and they may be the answer to his problems, too.

“Uncle Buck” stars Mike Epps as Buck, Nia Long as Alexis, James Lesure as Will, Iman Benson as Tia, Sayeed Shahidi as Miles and Aalyrah Caldwell as Maizy.

So another show trying to do the Saul/David story? Didn't the last one crashing and burning prove anything?

It proved that it was a great show that had one of the least effective and most confusing marketing pushes I've ever seen for a TV show. That's pretty much it.

Kings on NBC. It was a great one season show that got butchered by the ads for it.

Also Muppets looks amazing.

Long Live The King!

From the trailers here the shows I'll definitely give a shot are Wicked City, The Family, Quantico, and definitely The Muppets. Possibly Kings and Prophets too since I do love a good biblical epic. Not sure it'll be a good one though.
