Shedding a Little Light on the NBC Sked

I wrote a quick post with a link to the upcoming NBC schedule here.

But now I have a little scoop on the new shows, courtesy of this week's Entertainment Weekly.

Here's what some of these new shows are about.

Knight Rider: the "you knew it was going to happen" ongoing series based on the sequel movie that aired over the winter.

Robinson Crusoe: a "retelling" of the story according to EW. Don't know if it takes place in the original time, in the present, or in the future...

Kings: the "updated" King David story. Again, no details beyond that-- other than it stars Ian McShane, the f-bombing star of HBO's f-bombing Deadwood, f-bomber. [If you don't get that, buy/rent the awesome series.]

My Own Worst Enemy: Christian Slater stars as a secret suburban spy.

Fear Itself: a horror anthology.

Kath & Kim: a remake of the Aussie series that could be found on Sundance at one time (don't know if it still airs there; I tried it but didn't stick with it); this one stars Molly Shannon and Selma Blair.
