WICKED CITY (ABC)

“Wicked City” follows a unique case set in a noteworthy era of L.A. history, starting with a murder case from 1982 centered on the rock ’n’ roll, cocaine-infused revelry of the Sunset Strip. Alliances are formed to solve a serial murder case.

This show looks really dark and I am curious as to just how they plan on sustaining a weekly show about a serial killer especially when the serial killer comes off as a much more compelling character than the detective tasked with bringing the killer to justice. But Ed Westwick is all sorts of awesome creepy and the weird dynamic between Westwick’s killer and Erika Christensen’s single mom looking for love in all the wrong places grabbed me in just the short amount of time they had to build it in the trailer.

DC’S LEGENDS OF TOMORROW (CW)

When heroes alone are not enough… the world needs legends. Having seen the future, one he will desperately try to prevent from happening, time-traveling rogue Rip Hunter is tasked with assembling a disparate group of both heroes and villains to confront an unstoppable threat — one in which not only is the planet at stake, but all of time itself. Can this ragtag team defeat an immortal threat unlike anything they have ever known?

I am a huge comic book geek and I love the CW shows based on DC Comics characters so the minute I heard they were making a team show I was stoked and then when I saw the trailer for it I almost had a nerd stroke. This show looks amazing. From the cast (featuring among others Rory from DOCTOR WHO as a time traveling adventurer and the return of Caity Lotz’s Sarah Lance back from the dead) and we are finally getting The Atom away from being a bargain bin Iron Man and actually having size changing abilities. And it will be on my TV screen every week! I am in geek nirvana anticipating this show’s premiere.
