The writers at imdb.com go right to the point: When you tune in to "Spartacus: Blood and Sand," you "Watch the story of history's greatest gladiator unfold with graphic violence and explicit sex." What's not to like? Hunky heart-throb John Hannah plays Gannicus, "original champion of the House of Battiatus," who champions his own lusts and appetites at least as proficiently as he swings his sword. Astute observers might characterize Gannicus as the Brett Favre of the Roman Colliseum. If only texting on stone tablets weren't so clumsy, the messages would be the same. And, for legions of feminist fans who have missed Lucy Lawless's distinctive brand of butt-kicking girl power, her return to the small screen as Lucretia represents living proof there is justice in the world. This time, however, Lawless's character derives her slightly larger-than-life sexiness and skill from exquisite powers of observation and well-timed tugs on "the levers of power." If "The Good Wife" had a Roman prototype, Lucretia was she. According to the "Spartacus: Blood and Sand" web site, "Together, they will stop at nothing to deceive the masses, seize power, and bleed Capua dry."

In its first incarnation, "The A-Team" ran for five primetime years on NBC, extending George Peppard's career and launching Mr. T's. The producers sum-up the A-Team's premise, "Four Vietnam vets, framed for a crime they didn't commit, help the innocent while on the run from the military." Although the show has the look and feel of other seventies crime-drama hits from producer Steven J. Cannell, "The A-Team" aired between 1983 and 1986, when its inevitable associations with and allusions to VietNam Special Forces no longer provoked or disturbed anti-war viewers. Moreover, "The A-Team" piqued Americans' fierce devotion to underdogs, frequently reminding viewers how the lovable, wise-cracking misfits were framed"”fugitives from injustice, always aligning them with society's oppressed and disenfranchised, and often showing them "MacGivering" ingenious weapons from junkyard parts and duct tape"”the more insidious side of legendary American ingenuity. "The A-Team" persisted in flagrant political incorrectness, often disparaging women and indulging the audience's taste for gratuitous violence, redeemed primarily by its cartoonish quality. Producers reprised the concept for a 2010 feature film that sparked renewed interest in the original show, driving fans to Fancast, IMDd, and Amazon Video on Demand for their regular "A-Team" fixes.

John Grisham knows law and lawyers well because he is one himself. When he writes it usually centers around attorneys and courtrooms. The Firm was a hit movie starring Tom Cruise back in 1993 and was based on Grisham's second novel which became a best seller of the same title in 1991. When a young straight arrow Memphis attorney is hired by an organized crime related enterprise he has no idea what he's getting into until the Chicago mob ties become all too apparent. He then becomes a "whistleblower" for the FBI and helps bring down the Memphis law firm Chicago based mob ties. As the TV series begins Mitchell Y. McDeere (Josh Lucas from A Beautiful Mind, Glory Road) and his family emerge from the witness protection program only to encounter challenges, both new and old, that still threaten him and his family. Also starring in The Firm are Molly Parker (Dexter, Shattered) as Abby McDeere wife of Mitch, Callum Keith Rennie (Rookie Blue, The Killing) as Ray McDeere, Natasha Calis (Gone, Alice) as Claire McDeere, and Juliette Lewis from Natural Born Killers, From Dusk till Dawn as Tammy. Perhaps they should have remained in the security of Witness Protection.

As the story begins, Chuck is a twenty-something computer geek working at the Burbank, California, "Buy More" store. Chuck receives an e-mail from Bryce Larkin, his former Stanford roommate, who is now a CIA agent, allegedly a rogue. When Chuck opens and reads the e-mail, it embeds "The Intersect" a "neural super-computer" in his brain, making "Nerd Herd" guy the repository of all the CIA's intelligence information. The CIA dispatches Agent Sarah Walker, of course a beautiful blonde, to protect Chuck by posing as his girlfriend. Drama, action, and comedy ensue. The producers describe "Chuck" as an "action-comedy-drama" series. Originally NBC's lead-in to short-lived but monumentally popular "Heroes," "Chuck" has retained the look and feel of the warm-up act for the bigger talent; but the network has failed to deliver the headline act that would save poor "Chuck" from its life constantly on the threshold of cancellation. Critics complain that "Chuck," although clever and loaded with potential, never quite satisfies the requirements of action or comedy or drama, let alone hitting the trifecta. The series has survived largely on the strength of its cute-power and a core of exceptionally loyal fans who know how to use Twitter and Facebook.
