The Unusuals Looks Oddly Promising

There's now a trailer for The Unusuals, a new ABC cop show premiering April 8th. It's supposed to be like Law And Order meets M.A.S.H. The trailer is a little cheesy, with the bad narration and all, but I'll give anything starring Adam Goldberg and Amber Tamblyn a chance:

According to the show's official site, Adam Goldberg plays a cop "who is trying to get himself killed in the line of duty." So he's the Klinger. Let's hope this is more like a police version of House, MD than Cop Rock.

They turned the building across the street from my apartment into the 2nd Precinct for this show.

Isn't that interesting for everyone?

They never make buildings across the street from me into police precincts, but I do live in a residential suburb of Atlanta. Unless the 2nd is a ranch style house in a subdivision, it probably wouldn't work.

I love me some Adam Goldberg, but it looks like… not this April?
The voiceover guy is a nightmare.
But most important: What's the genre? (Dramedy)

Squint to make it look like ice cream as much as you want. It's still TV and it's still NYPDcrappy. When are you going to accept that TV is dead?
