New Shows

Two new shows that seem interesting and that I will be checking out come January 2012 are The Firm and Alcatraz. 

The Firm debuts on January 8 on NBC and Global. The show is based on the novel by the same name written by John Grisham. Given that the novel was a best-seller and the amount of promotion it's getting by NBC and Global, the show has a good shot at doing well in the ratings. 

If you look closely and you been outside commerce court, you can tell that some scenes were shot in down town Toronto.   








Alcatraz will premier on Fox on January 16, 2012. One of the reasons I am interested in watching the show is because of its premise (check out the promo below). The other reason is because some of the people - J. J. Abrams, Elizabeth Sarnoff, Jack Bender - who were behind Lost are also behind Alcatraz, so there is hope the show will be good. Also, it doesn't hurt that it was an honoree at the Critic's Choice TV Awards.
