(S01E01) We didn’t had to wait long before seeing new series premiering this summer, as last night on USA was the series premiere of their latest original show, In Plain Sight. Now I’ll be honest, I’m still a little mad at USA for canceling The 4400 the way they did, and not allowing us to get any closure, conclusion, answers, anything. Especially for a show such such strong serialization going on, to never know how it ends / what it was about / what was really going on is always incredibly frustrating.
Still, why should that stop me from trying new shows, right ? Plus this show had at least two things going for it, one it’s not the usual USA show about someone with a “special ability” solving crimes or helping the police one way or another, like almost all their shows -although, don’t be a fool, it is still about cops… - and two, there’s just absolutely nothing else on.

No need to go over what’s on TV every night now, because there’s isn’t much. So again, instead we’ll go over what’s on during the entire week ahead of us. There isn’t much, but already we have three new series premiering this week, and hopefully at least one of them will turn out to be good. A few words about them before the schedule…
* This very Sunday on USA premieres In Plain Sight. I don’t know much about this show, except that it stars Mary McCormack (The West Wing) as Mary Shannon, a U.S. Marshal working in the highly secretive branch of the witness protection program (WITSEC) who relocates Federal Witnesses. I don’t know if it’s gonna be any good, but at least this isn’t yet another show where the main character has some “ability” that helps him/her solve crime, so (s)he will be doing so/helping the police somehow, like so many of USA series, and I’d say about 90% of their upcoming projects as well with any “luck”…
