At 10 tonight, in a timeslot that was home to "NYPD Blue" for years, ABC hopes to create another cop-show franchise. Even though it has that groundbreaking show's first lieutenant, James Handy, in its cast, "Detroit 1-8-7" isn't that. That's not to say that this drama in which camera crews follow three pairs of detectives in a Detroit homicide unit isn't entertaining. It can't help but be with Michael Imperioli ("The Sopranos") as a weird but wily detective and Handy as the squad-room sage who's nearing retirement. The arresting question is if it can capture enough viewers to survive against critical darling "The Good Wife" and family drama "Parenthood. Perhaps realizing its mistake, Fox has brought back the producers of "Arrested Development," Mitch Hurwitz and Jim Vallely ,and one of...
In stores IN A BETTER WORLD (2010, Sony, R, $30) -- An Oscar winner for best foreign language film, Susanne Bier's absorbing thriller about revenge and forgiveness tracks the unlikely but life-changing friendship between two tweeners -- the bullied, easily influenced Elias (Markus Rygaard) and his protector, Christian (William Johnk Nielsen), a deeply troubled youngster still smarting over the death of his mother. The plot widens to include the boys' parents, particularly Elias's father (Mikael Persbrandt), a physician whose work in war-torn Africa forces him to confront evil head-on. Umissable. Extras: deleted scenes and Bier commentary.

How much "Glee" is there about the fall TV season, which really gets into full swing this week? That depends how interested you are in television. What has changed over the last 15 to 20 years is that viewers can always go elsewhere for their entertainment if they don't like what's being offered. It's all become niche programming, whether the networks admit it or not.

I've been a TV critic for 25 years, and this new season doesn't strike me as the worst crop. But it's not nearly up to last year's, when splendid "The Good Wife," "Modern Family" and (to a lesser extent) "Glee" and the intriguing flop "FlashForward" reminded us how compelling TV can be when it's done right. (And we'll miss departing giants "Lost" and "24") Cops, criminals, spies and lawyers dot the more-conventional landscape of the new fall season, which began this week for a handful of shows and rolls out big-time next week. Another premiere week looms, as the sun begins setting long before prime time and as the baseball playoffs approach. We haven't previewed all the shows, so we'll mix in some wire reviews in the following new-series capsules in Part 1 of this preview. Part 2 is in ...

LOS ANGELES - The cinematic landscape is littered with terrible movies based on television shows. From "Leave It to Beaver" and "Bewitched" to "The Dukes of Hazzard" and "Starsky & Hutch," the vast majority of these adaptations have not exactly been must-sees. And we won't even begin to discuss movies based on "Saturday Night Live" sketches. But with "The A-Team" arriving in theaters this weekend, it's a good time to ponder some other programs that are ready to make that leap:

HOLLYWOOD -- On a recent weekday morning, Jason Bateman was easily the most recognizable actor among the actors and wannabe actors hiking in the canyons above Hollywood. The former child TV star ("Silver Spoons") and late-teens cute-boy ("The Hogan Family") had with him Goose, a feisty French bulldog, and Dwayne, a mellower Brussels Griffon. Long the younger and lesser-known of the Bateman siblings (his sister, Justine, was Mallory on the '80s sitcom "Family Ties"), Jason, at 39, is enjoying a run of success that has separated him from that other canyon subspecies, the bare-chested unemployed actor dude hitting the loop hard, keeping his body trim for another pilot season.

So far, it's been a pretty mild season for fall TV, if you don't count Bruno Tonioli calling Michael Bolton's jive probably the worst one ever on "Dancing With the Stars. Nothing about the new shows seems as extreme as Bruno's comment. Some of them probably will stick around for a while - yes, I'm talking about you, "Hawaii Five-O" and "Blue Bloods." A couple - "Lone Star" and "My Generation" - were canceled quickly.
