You’d think that the networks would want to hand their homework in on time, particularly when advertising dollars depend on it. But t no, ever since upfronts week a fortnight ago, NBC, CBS, The CW and others have slowly been finding trailers for shows that were eaten by the dog, hidden behind the sofa and the like. The latest arrivals are from The CW and NBC and include The Tomorrow People, Star-Crossed and Camp, which is going to air this July, for heaven’s sake. Watch them after the jump.
I’m Rob Buckley, a journalist who writes for UK media magazines that most people have never heard of although you might have heard me on the podcast Lockdown Land or Radio 5 Live’s Saturday Edition or Afternoon Edition. I’ve edited Dreamwatch, Sprocket and Cambridge Film Festival Daily; been technical editor for TV producers magazine Televisual; reviewed films for the short-lived newspaper Cambridge Insider; written features for the even shorter-lived newspaper Soho Independent; and was regularly sarcastic about television on the blink-and-you-missed-it “web site for urban hedonists” The Tribe. Since going freelance, I've contributed to the likes of Broadcast, Total Content + Media, Action TV, Off The Telly, Action Network, TV Scoop and The Custard TV.
