Southland
This weekend, the producers of Southland spilled that Tom Everett Scott’s character does survive his gunshot wound. Look for the show to explore the psychological impact of the shooting on Scott’s character.

I can't believe that after we were so cheated out of watching Ben deal with the psychological effects of killing someone his first day on the job, now we have to sit through Creepy Russell getting airtime in season 2 to deal with his psychological problems!? WTF!?!?!
No one even liked his character and now he will probably get the juicy material of dealing with the aftermath of a traumatic event that Ben should have gotten in season one! Not happy about this at all! :(
9. 'Southland' (NBC) - It's not coincidental that right as 'ER' ends it run after taking a two-year victory lap (seriously, guys, that was embarrassing), we see promos for a cop show "from the people who brought you 'ER'" that just happens to fall exactly in 'ER's' old lineup spot. Smart marketing for a show that strikes such a similar tone. There's a little of bit of 'ER' here, a little bit of 'The Wire,' and more than a little bit of 'Crash,' too (morally layered cops butt heads as interlocking cross-racial stories collide across sprawling Los Angeles). Regina King has the Don Cheadle role, 'The OC's' Ben McKenzie takes on Ryan Philippe, and Tom Everett Scott waits around for someone to either write him something good or kill him off (I'm banking on the latter, myself). The show's a little uneven out of the gate, but King and especially McKenzie make the show worth watching. Seriously, Ben McKenzie is outstanding here as a quiet newbie cop unsure of his footing. Take a good look, haters - it turns out the man has some serious chops.![]() |
