Pick of the Week

Synopsis: The season ended with Nathan Petrelli getting shot at a press conference where he was about to reveal his superpower. This season, his shooter is revealed and everyone has to deal with all the bad guys locked up in Level 5 being released.

My Take: After last season doing a poor job introducing new characters while ignoring fan favorites, this season is trying hard to win those fans back. I’ve stuck with it so far, so I’ll give it a shot.

ABC New Fall Shows

Life on Mars
Channel: ABC
Time: 10/9c
Premieres: Thu, Oct 9
Starring: Jason O’Mara, Harvey Keitel, Michael Imperioli, Gretchen Mol, Jonathan Murphy, Lisa Bonet
Trailer

Synopsis: Remake of a BBC show where after a car accident, a cop wakes up in 1973. Is he in a coma dreaming it all or did he actually go back in time? He’s trying to figure out how to get back while clashing with the politically incorrect cops of the ’70s.
