On April 15, the new CBS police drama NYC 22 will debut at 10 PM.

The series follows six diverse NYPD rookies as they patrol the gritty streets of upper Manhattan. The new trainees include Jennifer “White House” Perry (Leelee Sobieski), a former college volleyball star and Marine MP in Iraq with a take-charge attitude; Ray “Lazarus” Harper (Adam Goldberg), the oldest rookie and a former police news reporter with better sources than most seasoned cops; Tonya Sanchez (Judy Marte), who comes from a family with a criminal history; Ahmad Kahn (Tom Reed), an Afghani native who fought his way to freedom; Kenny McClaren (Stark Sands), a fourth-generation police officer with great instincts but qualms about joining the force; and Jayson “Jackpot” Toney (Harold House Moore), a young basketball legend who squandered his opportunity in the NBA. Their demanding Field Training Officer, Daniel “Yoda” Dean (Terry Kinney), is a case-hardened, unsentimental veteran of the force who emphasizes basics and holds each cop accountable for their actions. Rounding out the team is Sergeant Terry Howard (Felix Solis), a no-nonsense plainclothes officer from the Gang Intel Unit, who trains the rookies on how to keep the gangbangers at bay. With unique backgrounds, personalities and reasons for being on the force, the new cops will make their share of rookie mistakes while they figure out how to relate to their boss, each other and the people they swore to protect.

Here is a behind the scenes featurette for NYC 22.

Another Geek Anthem from the Cast of The Guild

Posted in Geekdom, Online Series, Video, Web Series on April 2, 2012| Leave a Comment »

The Guild

The following is verbatim from the folks at Blastr:

“To celebrate the launch of her Geek & Sundry YouTube Channel, (actress and creator of The Guild) Felicia Day has reunited the gang that gave us “Do You Wanna Date My Avatar” for “I’m the One That’s Cool,” the sort of rock-revenge, fist-pump anthem makes you want to turn it up with your Prius’ windows down. With music by Dr. Horrible’s Jed Whedon, Day weaves a tale of a disparate band of high school students, picked on mercilessly by the Cool Kidz, who have grown into a world that’s ready to champion them in a way it never was before”.

“Geek & Sundry, in case you’re not aware, is Felicia’s new nerd hub on YouTube, which features episode of The Guild, a gaming series with Wil Wheaton called Tabletop, webcomics from Dark Horse Comics and other assorted awesomeness”.

Again, you can see the new video here and you can revisit the “Do You Wanna Date My Avatar” video here.
