70s Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 If you've watched NBC in the past couple of months, odds are you've seen a preview for this show, starring Katherine McPhee, Debra Messing, and Megan Hilty and produced by Steven Spielberg. The first episode was recently released for free on iTunes and I think it was outstanding. Definitely an acquired taste, but one I think people should try.

Clappy Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I am going to give this a show shot, but one thing that annoys me about the previews is how they are introducing us to Katherine McPhee. We have already met her before on a show called American Idol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have already met her before on a show called American Idol. I think it means acting in a series. Sometimes the previews say "introducing Megan Hilty" as well, when she is already a fairly famous Broadway actress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know she was in movies like The House Bunny and Shark Night. Then I thought she has been in a series before too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
70s Posted January 17, 2012 Author Share Posted January 17, 2012 Hmm, yeah she was in those things. I don't know, I suppose it's because this is her first lead role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wumbo Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Katharine McPhee irritates me, so I'm probably not going to tune in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wumbo Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I hadn't seen much of her before but I thought she was great in this.I may be just holding a grudge here, but I was appalled when she got by Chris Daughtry in American Idol. She is probably one of the worst singers I've ever heard. "Over It" makes my ears bleed. She's probably a good actress, who knows? I might tune in just out of curiosity.

I absolutely agree about everything in this statement about Katherine McPhee the singer. The actress still needs judging even though I saw her in The House Bunny.

70s Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 So this show is not nearly as good as the pilot suggested it would be, but it's still a show I regularly watch. Megan Hilty and... everyone in the cast except McPhee, the kid who plays Leo, and Ellis is outstanding. Too bad the writing sucks and everything not involved with the play is boring. There will be a new showrunner next season so hopefully that means some improvement in the storytelling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
