American television frequently remakes series that originated on British television: ALL IN THE FAMILY and THE OFFICE are two of the more successful examples. The crime drama LOW WINTER SUN, set and shot in Detroit, is a remake of the 2006 series of the same name that was set in Edinburgh, Scotland. What makes LOW WINTER SUN unusual is that Mark Strong, who starred in the first version, is recreating his role as Frank Agnew for AMC’s edition, which is airing its first ten-episode season Sunday nights at 10 PM. Frank a police detective who is coerced by a colleague, […]Read On »

Theoretically, the CBS series UNFORGETTABLE is a procedural about Carrie Wells (Poppy Montgomery), who has the gift of eidetic memory, meaning that she has almost total recall of everything she sees and hears. UNFORGETTABLE is not supposed to be about resurrection, but after canceling the show after its initial 2011-2012 run, CBS decided to make a second season after all. UNFORGETTABLE currently airs Sundays at 9 PM. In UNFORGETTABLE, Carrie is a former NYPD detective who is prompted to rejoin the force by her former colleague and lover, Detective Al Burns, played by Dylan Walsh. In the first season, they’re […]Read On »

Although named for the 1985 film starring Michael J. Fox, the MTV series TEEN WOLF, now in its third season, bears little resemblance beyond its title. Developed for television by executive producer Jeff Davis, TEEN WOLF chronicles the perilous adventures of high school student and new werewolf Scott McCall (Tyler Posey), his girlfriend Alison Argent (Crystal Reed) who comes from a long line of werewolf hunters, Scott’s best friend (and sheriff’s son) Stiles (Dylan O’Brien), alpha werewolf Derek Hale (Tyler Hoechlin) and their allies and enemies. TEEN WOLF’s directing executive producer Russell Mulcahy (also known for the first HIGHLANDER film, […]Read On »

In TNT’s legal dramedy FRANKLIN & BASH, which has its third-season finale on Wednesday August 14 at 9 PM, Breckin Meyer plays Jared Franklin and Mark-Paul Gosselaar plays Peter Bash. Franklin and Bash are lifelong friends and unconventional lawyers who join a “white shoe” law firm run by the likewise unorthodox Stanton Infield, portrayed by Malcolm McDowell. This year, Heather Locklear has joined the cast as more traditional lawyer Rachel King, who frequently clashes with the title characters. At a Beverly Hilton poolside party thrown by Turner for TNT, TBS and the Television Critics Association press tour, Gosselaar and Meyer are hanging out together, riffing […]Read On »
