RUSH:
RUSH examines the world of renegade physician Dr. William Rush (Tom Ellis, ‘Miranda’), a ‘medical fixer’ who privately caters to LA¹s elite and whose service comes with a hefty price tag. Though the hard-partying doctor claims that he doesn¹t make judgments about his less-than-squeaky-clean clients, he¹s not immune to the ugliness that he encounters. From Fox21 ("Homeland") and writer/director Jonathan Levine (‘Warm Bodies’), along with Gina Matthews and Grant Scharbo (‘Missing,’ ‘13 Going on 30’) and Executive Producer Adam Fierro (‘The Shield’), the series is set to film in Vancouver, Canada.

Through the lens of one couple, Neil Truman (Matt Passmore, ‘The Glades’) and his wife, Grace (Stephanie Szostak, ‘The Devil Wears Prada’), this series answers the question, ‘What do you do when having it all is not enough?’ by delving into their shocking and unconventional choices. Michelle DeShon (‘Hollywood Heights’), Katherine LaNasa (‘The Campaign’) and Blair Redford (‘Switched at Birth’) also star. SATISFACTION is from Universal Cable Productions (UCP) and executive producer/creator Sean Jablonski (SUITS, ‘Nip Tuck’). Russ Krasnoff (‘Community’) of Krasnoff/Foster also serves as executive producer. The series is set to film in Atlanta, Georgia.

Um, the first one looks a bit Nip/Tuck but much grittier. I don't know if I'm gonna watch this or not. The second one looks like it could get stale after a few episodes..
ReplyDeleteThese both look like a snooze fest. Can't believe USA cancelled Psych and White Collar in the same year to make way for these. Do they really need two shows about a medical doctor discreetly servicing rich clients at the same time? Royal Pains is on its way out the door next, I assume.
ReplyDeleteI will check out Rush. I take anything remotely interesting to put on the summer watchlist.
ReplyDeleteI'll wait for reviews/recaps when it comes to Satisfaction. I might check it out if the show is more about soul-searching instead of adultery and the indulgence of other reckless behavior.
Well,i can scratch these two off my list...
ReplyDeleteUSA seems to be moving away from the "blue sky" shows and on to more dramatic, darker, edgier fare. It started with Graceland last summer, and both of the new shows also fit the new profile. The problem is if any of the new shows are actually good and based on the promos for both shows and my indifference to Graceland last summer, I have almost no interest in watching the new shows.
ReplyDeleteIts like Royal Pains and Ray Donovan mix, Yea I'll watch it.
