CBS is embracing the steaminess of summer with its new series, RECKLESS, a soapy drama that follows City Attorney Roy Rayder (Cam Gigandet) and defense attorney Jamie Sawyer (Anna Wood) as they bicker — and banter — their way through cases…including the season-long arc of a former police officer, Lee Anne Marcus (Georgina Haig), who is suing the Charleston PD.
To get a little more dish about what’s to come, I sat down with Wood to talk RECKLESS season 1…

Comments Off on Which 2014-2015 Television Trailers Are You Rewatching?
One of the best parts about the Upfronts is we traditionally get our first looks at the new shows that will be populating our television screens during the upcoming season.
Of course, the trailers aren’t always an indication of how the show will turn out — great shows have had terrible trailers, and terrible shows have looked significantly better thanks to a great trailer. But for now, there are a few trailers I’m obsessing over for the new television season.

Filed under NCIS: New Orleans
Like CSI: CYBER, NCIS fans already got a hint of what NCIS: NEW ORLEANS might look like during the backdoor pilot that aired this year. But in case you missed it/were thinking of checking it out even if you’re not a regular NCIS watcher, check out a few photos from the backdoor pilot, CBS’ official description, and a trailer…
NCIS: NEW ORLEANS
âÂÂPilotâ -- NCIS: NEW ORLEANS is a drama about the local field office that investigates criminal cases affecting military personnel in the Big Easy, a city known for its music, entertainment and decadence. This colorful city that harbors a dark side is a magnet for service personnel on leave, and when overindulgence is followed by trouble, the team is at its best. Pictured left to right: Lucas Black as Special Agent Christopher LaSalle, Scott Bakula as Special Agent Dwayne Pride, CCH Pounder as Dr. Loretta Wade (seated), and Mark Harmon as Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs. NCIS: NEW ORLEANS will air Tuesdays at 9:00 PM on the CBS Television Network. (Pilot was shot as a two-part episode of NCIS, which aired in the spring.)

BATTLE CREEK

Comments Off on BAD TEACHER: Ari Graynor on Her New CBS Series
BAD TEACHER, the new CBS comedy loosely adapted from the 2011 Cameron Diaz film, is premiering tonight, and for series star Ari Graynor (Meredith), it’s not a moment too soon.
“I [originally] met with the creative team on Valentine’s Day in 2013,” Graynor said. “So it’s been over a year [of waiting]. And you make network television for the most number of people to see, and now, a year and two months later, people are just starting to see it. But the good and bad thing about being on CBS is that they’re doing so well, there’s little real estate on their schedule. But to be at Thursday night at 9:30 [on CBS] is a crazy dream.”
However, Graynor acknowledged that she didn’t exactly set out to do television.
