Fall 2006 New Shows Rank: #8
Gist of the Show:
A former high-profile defense lawyer is forced to join the District Attorneys office.
Cast Member Looking To Reclaim Former Glory:
James Woods, a great actor who has remained on the fringes of celebrity throughout his entire career.
Similar in Theme to:
"Major League 3: Back to the Minors"
Time Slot Competition:
ER, Six Degrees.
Likelihood of Second Season:
60%
Final Word:
The premise of
Shark is a good one, hopefully setting up scenarios in which fun is poked at the hysteria of celebrity trials. James Woods is a great actor, and when given quality material, he routinely knocks it out of the park. Spike Lee directed the pilot of
Shark, and
Shark also has a strong supporting cast. Will the James Woods character in
Shark continue to be a
House-esque anti-hero and keep the show edgy, or will
Shark become typical.
