Now it’s ABC’s turn to show off its new programmes. Apparently, they’ve invented an entirely new day of the week, judging by the number of new shows they have coming up. However, in contrast to the last two years, where ABC’s comedy programming seems to have been its best line of attack, this year, drama appears to be the better option, with
- Leslie Bibb of Iron Man and Popular fame in Good Christian Belles
- Leslie Judd doing a Jason Bourne with Sean Bean in Missing
- Robert Carlyle and Jennifer Morrison living in a world where fairy tales are real in Once Upon A Time
- Christina Ricci doing for air stewardessing with Mad Men did for advertising in Pan Am
- Madeleine Stowe exacting revenge in the Hamptons in the appropriately titled Revenge and
- Nowhere Man‘s Bruce Greenwood mysteriously going missing while hunting for magic up the Amazon
Unfortunately, we also have a terrible-looking remake of Charlie’s Angels and another Shonda Rhimes bit of tatt, this time set in the world of politics, but you can’t win them all.
However, in the world of comedy, we have some truly, deeply offensive bits of rubbish. See if you can spot the worst offender – I’ll give you a clue: it’s the one in which men are so put upon and discriminated against, they have to dress up as women to get jobs.
I didn’t make that one up, by the way.
