Subject: NBC unveils new lineup

Got this off the AP Entertainment Wire; comments from me at the end
********
Since it found an audience this season with superpowered stars, NBC will remake ‘‘Bionic Woman’’ with Michelle Ryan in the title role.
New series ‘‘Journeyman’’ is about a San Francisco newspaper reporter who travels through time to alter people’s lives, and ‘‘Chuck’’ is a thriller about a computer geek who becomes a government agent after spy secrets are embedded in his brain.
Brooke Shields headlines an hour-long series about three high-powered women friends, a script from ‘‘Sex and the City’’ author Candace Bushnell.
NBC’s other new series, ‘‘Life,’’ is a drama about a detective given a second chance after spending years in prison for a crime he didn’t commit.
*******
Both "Journeyman" and "Chuck" sound kinda/sorta interesting, although the both sound VERY similar to past shows; "Journeyman" sounds like a 21st century version of "Quantum Leap" and "Chuck" sounds quite similar to the short-lived "Jake 2.0" that aired on the now-defunct UPN a few years ago.
I won't watch either of them during the first few months of next year's television season, however. I've been burned too many times -- most recetly by NBC with "Kidnapped" -- with getting "hooked" on shows that only last half a dozen eps. Depending on who's starring in them and when they come on, if either of these shows are still on the air in January of 2009, I may start watching them.
