Southland, a gritty cop drama, will make its TNT premiere tonight at 10 p.m. ET/PT.
If you didn’t get a chance to watch Southland on NBC in the fall, give it a fresh start tonight on TNT, the show’s new home. Southland got stuck in NBC’s temporary insanity where they put Jay Leno in the 10 p.m. spot, and Southland was shuffled out. Thankfully, TNT picked the series.

What makes Southland worth watching? Well, first, the cast is top-notch. The show’s three main stars in the ensemble cast include Benjamin McKenzie (The OC, 88 Minutes), Regina King (Jerry Maguire, Miss Congeniality 2: …read more

TNT has obtained the rights to show all 13 produced episodes of the Warner Bros. drama – the first original seven episodes that aired last year on NBC – and the six unaired episodes which were going to kick off the second season originally in October. TNT will then decide whether to order additional episodes.

I am so ticked off at network TV! I do not appreciate it when shows I have followed get cancelled, and I know I’m not alone.
Suprisingly, NBC decided Thursday to cancel Southland — before its second season premiere scheduled for Friday, Oct. 23.
So why am I so mad? Well, I’ve been looking forward to the show returning! To me, it was one of the best new  shows of last season. And if you remember, they didn’t air that many episodes in the first season.
When they first scheduled Southland’s second season for Friday night, I wasn’t even upset. Once CW moved …read more

How deep undercover does an agent go? Does he go so deep that his colleagues aren’t sure whether or not he or she has “turned”? At what point does an undercover agent draw the line? And what will that agent do to protect his identity while undercover?

Those are some of the questions that TNT’s new summer drama Dark Blue starring Dylan McDermott (The Practice) ponders for its characters as executive producer Jerry Bruckheimer takes viewers into the dark world of undercover cops in Los Angeles.
The hour-long drama will make its premiere at 10 p.m. ET/PT Wednesday on TNT.

If you’ve been hypnotized like I have with NBC’s new cop show Southland, you won’t want to miss tonight’s episode “Derailed,” which serves as Southand’s finale for a while.
The show will return with 13 new episodes in the fall – but on a new night – Friday, as NBC just shuffled its fall season around to accommodate The Jay Leno Show each night. I wasn’t real happy with that at first – but I think Friday is going to be the “new” Thursday. Lots of good shows are moving to Friday, including Smallville.
In “Derailed,” the day takes a …read more
