ITV brings on the new shows
ITV are set to launch a raft of new US shows on the back of this weeks Bionic Woman premiere.
I have seen the first episode of the Jimmy Smits drama Cane and it was great but it looks like it won't get picked up for next season. Its about a Cuban-American family running a rum and sugar business in Florida. It starts on ITV3 on Thursday March
27th.
That's the same day that Gossip Girl begins on ITV2. Based on the novels by Cecily von Ziegesar its about wealthy teenagers who go to school in New York's affluent Upper East Side. I have seen the first one of these also, and quite frankly don't need to see it again.
Pushing Daisies now be destined for Saturday nights. It seemed ITV had been planning to air this at 9pm on Fridays but won't now want to do that opposite Dirty Sexy Money on Channel 4 (which by the way will get a first look on E4 on Tuesdays). Daisies and the Damien Lewis series Life will both start in April.

Well, I suppose ITV has to have something I'd be interested in watching on Saturdays. That and Gossip Girl will be getting my attention; Cane, Life and, frankly, Dirty Sexy Money not so much.

Well Cane is the best of the three pilots but looks like its heading for the axe. Dirty Sexy Money is OK but its a lot of set-up for whats to come but its certainly got the potential (and a great cast). The pilot of Life is terrible mainly because its hard to accept Lewis as an American cop but apparently it gets much much better
