[...] I am slightly encouraged that a groundswell of web support seems to be building for Kings, from publications as different as IGN to Larison’s blog on the American Conservative, among others (see here, here, here, here, and here). [...]

[...] överallt har jag kunnat läsa om hur bra den här serien är och hur mycket potential den har till att bli fantastisk. Det sägs att den är annorlunda det NBC gjort tidigare, och liknar mer något som kabelkanalerna [...]

I’ve been looking forward to Kings. The only thing that worries me is that it might hurt Chuck’s chances at renewal if it is a hit.

A long time ago, when the new shows for the 2008-2009 season were being announced, I picked three that I thought would be must-sees: Fringe, Dollhouse, and Kings.

I forced myself to watch the first few episodes of Fringe, but it was no Lost and I could not relate to any single character, except maybe the cow.

So, I’ve since dropped it.

Currently, I am still watching Dollhouse, and while it is a good show (minority opinion), it hasn’t blown me out of the water yet (the pilot was luke-warm). But I’m sticking with it.

I have high hopes for Kings. I just hope it finds an audience, if it is truly as good as I think it will be, and finds a place in the newly reduced-hours of prime-NBC (Why did they move my Conzy from New York?).

Maybe Kings can be a messiah for NBC’s scripted serials.

I have to agree. KINGS is just one upcoming show that really intrigues me. I’m also stoked about three comedies: Better Off Ted, Parks & Recreation, and Sit Down & Shut Up.

You didn’t mention Sebastian Stan, who I believe can hold his own with Egan in the young hot guy department. It’s a shame The WB did not follow thru with its 2005 pilot, The Prince, which featured Egan with Tim Matheson. So many good pilot ideas were never followed thru on.
