Rueben's Ramblings

The new ABC drama Lucky 7 will debut on September 24 at 10 PM.

In Astoria, Queens, a group of seven gas station employees have been chipping into a lottery pool for months, never thinking they’d actually win. Money could solve problems for each of them. Matt (Matt Long from Jack & Bobby) could get his girlfriend and two kids out of his mother’s house. Matt’s brother Nicky (Stephen Louis Grush from Detroit 1-8-7), an ex-con, could pay off a dangerous debt. Samira (Summer Bishil from Towelhead), a second-generation Pakistani immigrant, could afford to go to Juilliard. Denise (Lorraine Bruce from Eden Lake), a plucky cashier, could focus on rebuilding her crumbling marriage. Leanne (Anastasia Phillips from Stoked), a young mother, could help her daughter realize her dreams. Bob (Isiah Whitlock, Jr.), the store’s manager, could finally retire, and Antonio (Luis Antonio Ramos from The Ruins) could give his wife and kids a whole new life.

Here is a trailer for Lucky.
