This is a midseason show that is going to start on January 31st after Lost on ABC, and I can't wait for it to get here. It's about a lawyer who starts to think that he may be a prophet.

You can see video clips of it here and you can read a somewhat spoiler-y review of the first episode here.

What can I say? I love the production team behind the show, Victor Garber's in the show and I love him, Tom Cavanagh (from Ed) supposedly makes a cameo and I love him, it's set in San Francisco and I'm a sucker for movies and tv shows set in SF, and hey - any show that has the main character hallucinate that George Michael is singing and dancing on his coffee table is all right with me.

I'm totally watching this because I've always had a major crush on Jonny Lee Miller. Especially in Mansfield Park. Except from the previews, it looks like something died on his head. It's either a really bad rug or bad plugs.

The whole George Michael thing cracks me up. I'll give it a few tries.

I love me some Johnny Lee Miller as well. Lets hope this shows takes off for him as he's been in a few so far that have been cancelled. I did think something looked a little different in the preview I saw but I couldn't put my figure on it.

I've seen the pilot and I thought it was very funny. I was mainly interested because I've enjoyed pretty much all of Greg Berlanti's previous work, but Jonny Lee Miller is hilarious in the role and a good reason to keep watching. The George Michael interludes are priceless.

I'm jealous of the folks who have seen the pilot. I heard it was leaked online, but I'm internet stupid and I can't find it.

The Dr. Chen character seems like he'll be a pretty cool character too.

I found the pilot on torrentspy, probably other torrent sites have it. I'm currently downloading it.

I'll watch any TV show that has Jonny Lee Miller without all of his clothes on.

He does a very funny little dance in the pilot, though sadly he's clothed while doing it.

Great! Another British actor starring in an American tv show with a lousy American accent. JLM always reminds me of Steve on Coronation Street.

I didn't even recognize him in the commercials, he just looked like some generic white actor to me. Has he gained weight since Smith or what?
