New midseason shows

Looks good, I'm looking forward to Kings. [Link]

Kings, NBC, debuts March 19 at 10 p.m. ET/PT. Set in a fictional modern monarchy, this midseason replacement reimagines the King David story from the Bible. But Kings is really "stealth sci-fi," according to creator and executive producer Michael Green. "We took elements of that classic tale of King David, the rise of a young shepherd boy who becomes king himself, and we modernized it and found ways of making it be about a soldier who's from a small town who ends up, through an act of bravery and courage and sort of blind stupidity, ... in the royal world he'd only read about in magazines and seen on TV," Green said. Kings stars Ian McShane, Susanna Thompson and Christopher Egan.
