TV Review: Ironside Rebirth

Blair Underwood stars in the rebirth of Ironside, which origonally starred Raymond Burr (1967).  For those who don't know, Robert Ironside is a rough, experienced detective who is restricted to a wheelchair after a shooting accident on the job.  I worry about remakes like these because they usually do not survive long, but it could be possible with another rebirth that is one of my current favorites, Hawaii 5-0.  NBC needs another crime drama to work along side of Law & Order: SVU.  This show could do it.  Crossing fingers for this one.

Underwood is joined by Pablo Schreiber (The Wire, Weeds & Orange is the New Black), Spencer Grammer (As The World Turns & Greek) and Brent Sexton (Deadwood, Life & The Killing).
