With ratings at an all-time low, NBC is trying desperately to get out of its funk. First order of business was to get Leno back in his traditional slot and leave the 10 o'clock hour open for the 1-hour drama series. Well, the peacock network just revealed some of its fall season lineup and dramas are back, together with a mix of comedies and some reality for good measure.
But overall, NBC seems to playing true to its new tagline, ".more colorful". Yes, there is definitely a lot more color and diversity in the lineup than I can ever remember coming from this network.
Undercovers stars an African American couple that run a catering business by day, and work as CIA agents by night.
Outsourced is a comedy that plays on the culture-clash of a white guy who is transfered to India to manage a team of call center employees.
Outlaw stars Jimmy Smits as a latino Supreme Court judge that steps down from his post to then represent the little guy in pro-bono legal cases.
