Do No Harm and Infamous: Picked Up by NBC
The NBC pickup parade continues.
With seven new shows already announced by the network over the last week or so, the Peacock has given the green light to two more:
- Do No Harm: A drama based on Steven DePasquale's neurosurgeon, a doctor with a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde-type issue that causes major problems (as you might expect) at work and at home. Cast also includes: Alana de la Garza, Phylicia Rashad and Mousa Kraish.
- Infamous: Pretty much a rip-off of Revenge. Features Meagan Good as a detective who goes undercover inside a wealthy family in order to identity her friend's killer. Also stars: Victor Garber, Neil Jackson, Katherine LaNasa and Laz Alonso.
As for returning shows, NBC just announced renewals for 30 Rock and Parenthood.

As it is not NBC I will not be watching either show as chances of them getting full seasons or even a second season will be slim.

I could picture the first one working if done right. Medical dramas are not having the best go of it right now though, but perhaps this twist will help it.
The second one does indeed sound like Revenge. Maybe enough so that people would be turned off by it. They would be smart not to put it in the same time-slot.

Do No Harm - they needed a better way to sale that premise. Jekyll and Hyde once again puts me to bed. Alana is nice casting.
Infamous - sounds like: I sneaked a peak on late night Tv once kinda of premise.
