NBC Cancels J.J. Abrams' "Undercovers"


NBC's Undercovers is toast. The spy series created by J.J. Abrams and Josh Reims has been cancelled by NBC. It is the second TV show cancelled by the network this season, although. It is also the first network show to have two Black actors in the lead roles, Boris Kodjoe and Gugu Mbatha-Raw.

It's too bad. I enjoyed the show; it was probably better suited for USA or another NBC-Universal Comcast cable outlet.

I am also watching NBC's The Event but that show has some problems and I would not be surprised if it is cancelled by the end of the season.

'Glee' Starts Off Second Season

The Emmy-award winning musical comedy Glee returned to television last night with it's second season premiere featuring a new female football coach to act as a foil for Jane Lynch's Sue Sylvester, the cheerleader coach.

Anyone watching the new shows? With Lost gone, I'm looking forward to Undercovers, the new show from its creator, JJ Abrams. I watched the pilot episode of The Event on Monday, and except for Laura Innes (previously the disabled lesbian ER doc Kerry) the rest of the cast seemed pretty 'meh' and the direction seemed positively clumsy. There's clearly a long way to go before The Event can claim to be the heir apparent to Lost.
