　　USA电视台的新剧《Burn Notice 火线警告》是一部带有喜剧成分的间谍剧。
　　当一个间谍被解雇了，他们绝不会收到人事部门交来的《解聘书》，而是一个连他自己也不大清楚的火线警告……
　　当特工Michael Westen (Jeffrey Donovan)在外执行任务的时候，他收到了一份Burn Notic，从此变成了被人遗忘的角色。
　　Michael不知道自己究竟犯了什么错误，也不知道自己得罪了什么人，他回到自己的家乡迈阿密，决心找出事情的真相，为自己讨个说法。
　　他已经无法再和以前那些眼线联络，而且得随时躲蔽间谍网络的搜索。为此，他利用自己的特工技能帮助当地警方解决棘手的案件，换取他们的信任，然后凭借警察的信息优势来秘密进行个人调查。

　　这部心理惊悚剧被称作CBS历史上「最吓人」的剧集，「足以让胆小的观众一晚上睡不着觉」。故事描述来自洛杉矶警署威胁管理组（Threat Management Unit）的侦探Beth和Jack调查并处理「跟踪案件」。「跟踪案件」的受害人多为女性，一些不怀好意的跟踪者很可能对她们劫财（抢劫案）劫色（性侵害案），甚至对她们造成人身伤害。在另一些案件中，跟踪者可能刺探受害人的隐私，偷窥受害人的性行为，进行网络骚扰，或者对受害人产生病态的迷恋。
　　——天涯小筑

　　广泛好评的1999年开始播出的NBC连续剧《白宫群英》(The West Wing)，它最新的一季将于9月24日在NBC播出。这部电视剧曾打败《老友记》、《欲望城市》等劲敌，连续两季成为艾美奖大赢家，并连续三季获得最佳连续剧奖。
　　一向被视为票房毒药的政治题材，在《白宫群英》里重获生机。这与当今美国公众价值取向的转变密不可分。尤其是9·11之后，美国人的爱国激情勃发，对总统的支持率达到前所未有的高度。《白宫群英》9·11特辑的收视观众多达2450万人。而剧中的演员们也纷纷表现出真正的政治热情，扮演森美的罗布洛 (Rob Lowe)成为阿诺·施瓦辛格的竞选顾问，扮演巴列总统的马丁·辛(Martin Sheen)则成为前一阵子好莱坞反战的中坚分子。
　　单纯从艺术角度来说，《白宫群英》在制作上比较活泼。虽然还是以拥护白宫为主旋律，但也不乏讽刺与调侃；虽然剧集强调纯属虚构，但暴露了众多白宫运作的真实内幕，因而也更受观众的欢迎。
　　在《白宫群英》里活跃的人物除了总统巴列及其家人外，还有他的一系列重要幕僚。从这个阵容便可看出，从全球战略的制定到总统一枚胸针的选择，在剧集里均可获得关注。当然其中也少不了各种谈情说爱的绯闻，其中不乏与现实“巧合"之处，例如在第一季中总统的女儿与白宫实习生大谈恋爱，而在剧集播出不久，便有消息称当时的总统克林顿的女儿与一名白宫实习生热恋。
　　剧集一方面为观众提供了一个窥视国家大事运作过程、窥视政坛要人的私生活的窗口，一方面又试图通过自己的表现影响高层，真正起到为总统出谋划策的作用，两头讨好，两方受益。
　　《白宫群英》给人的启示是，不仅以往那种让总统自己驾着飞机拯救全世界的手法已经落伍，从正面歌颂白宫也迷惑不了观众的眼睛。当传媒已颠覆了一切“神化"的可能的时候，与其用连小孩子都不相信的光环来包装总统，倒不如洗掉铅华，用有血有肉的真材猛料赢得公众的支持。

　　在这部重新翻拍的经典黄金时段肥皂剧中，当一个新面孔蓄势待发准备加入这个家族，卡林顿家族与科尔比家族为了掌控他们的财产和孩子而争斗不止。

　　许多超能力者在得到超能力后，仍试图变回平凡人，过普通人的生活，但神秘组织H.R.G和“食脑人”赛勒（扎克瑞·昆图 Zachary Quinto 饰）却不肯放过他们。“啦啦队长”克莱尔（海顿·潘妮蒂尔 Hayden Panettiere 饰）和养父班奈特（杰克·科曼 Jack Coleman 饰）一家隐居在加州，却发现同学里也隐藏着H.R.G成员；“分裂女”妮基（阿丽·拉特尔 Ali Larter 饰）一心带着儿子过正常生活，却发现被人监视；主动“核爆”的皮特（米洛·文堤米利亚 Milo Ventimiglia 饰）带着神秘伤疤又回来了，好像变成了另一个人，和哥哥内森（Adrian Pasdar 饰）的纠葛也在继续……

　　马克·里朗斯、西蒙·佩吉、艾德里安·莱斯特将主演Peacock和Channel 4联合开发的剧集《暗战》。该剧共6集，由彼得·考斯明斯金(《狼厅》)自编自导，故事发生在疫情结束后的2024年，故事背景是即将举行的英国大选，以及即将诞生的英国首位黑人保守党首相(莱斯特饰)。位于英国国家安全局式间谍机构GCHQ核心的一支领衔分析师团队，试图抵御对该国选举系统的网络攻击。

　　Cinemax宣布续订《黑吃黑》（Banshee）第二季，2014年播出。Cinemax是个需要付费的有线频道，是HBO的子频道，《黑吃黑》每集有48.3万观众也算不错了。此前Cinemax已经续订了《反击》（Strike Back）和一堆「软色情」午夜剧集。

　　Cameras are rolling on the French Caribbean island of Guadeloupe for the tenth anniversary series of BBC One’s hugely popular Death In Paradise, making it one of the first BBC single camera dramas to start filming since lockdown.
　　Red Planet Pictures have worked closely with industry bodies, other production companies and the BBC to develop a detailed Covid-19 protocol policy, implementing various safety measures including social distancing, face coverings and temperature and Covid-19 testing to minimise any risk of infection. There is also a full-time Covid-19 Supervisor on set to make sure the protocols are being implemented correctly and the latest guidance is incorporated into the policy. The health and safety of our cast and crew is paramount and production is working in line with the Guadeloupe advice as well as the industry guidelines.
　　Returning to the sun-soaked island to reprise their roles are Ralf Little as D.I. Neville Parker, Don Warrington as Commissioner Selwyn Patterson, Tobi Bakare as D.S. JP Hooper and Elizabeth Bourgine as Mayor Catherine Bordey.
　　As well as the usual baffling murders, intriguing puzzles and famous guest stars, viewers can expect some huge surprises as the show celebrates a decade as one of the most loved British dramas - and these surprises begin with the return of D.S. Florence Cassell, played by audience favourite Josephine Jobert. Florence thinks she’s ready to get back to work after her fiancé’s death two years ago - but she hasn’t banked on her new boss, Neville. As she tries to understand his peculiarities, sparks are bound to fly…
　　Neville soon realises he is existing in the Caribbean, rather than embracing life there. With Florence’s help, he determines to seize the day and finds himself starting to reveal some of his secrets - including of a romantic nature. But is Neville really built for a life in the tropics? And is a romantic relationship ever going to be possible for him?
　　After two series bringing law, order, and joy to the streets of Saint Marie, we’re sad to say goodbye to Ruby Patterson who made such a massive impact in such a short time! DS Madeleine Dumas will also be departing Saint Marie’s sunny shores and we would like to thank Shyko Amos and Aude Legastelois-Bidé for bringing Ruby and Madeleine to life and wish them all the very best for the future.
　　We are excited to welcome a brand-new face to the team, in the shape of Tahj Miles. His character, 18-year-old petty criminal Marlon Pryce, is a ball of energy and thinks he knows it all. But when he runs into JP, his life takes an unexpected turn and he finds himself looking at a very different future to the one he expected.
　　The arrival of twins is the least of JP’s challenges as he finds Marlon - and some shocking developments at work - testing him to his limits. Selwyn’s frustrations with his new detective take a back seat when he finds himself in the firing line and Catherine’s life is turned upside down when the death of a friend pulls her into grave danger.
　　Executive Producer, Tim Key, says: “We are delighted to be able to start filming and can’t wait to celebrate our tenth series with our audience. It’s a joy to be working with Josephine Jobert again and we think the viewers will love watching her trying to get to grips with Neville. And we are very happy to welcome Tahj Miles to the show. Marlon is going to make real waves once he arrives in Saint Marie. We’ve got some real treats for our long-term viewers as the series progresses - including some major surprises and the possibility of another returning face or two. We are determined to make this our biggest and best series yet and can’t wait to take our viewers back to Saint Marie in 2021.”
　　Red Planet Pictures' Joint Managing Director, Alex Jones, says: “Like every other production company, we have faced huge challenges to get to this point, so we are delighted to be up and running again and extremely grateful to everyone who has helped us get this far, not least the people of Deshaies and the region of Guadeloupe for their assistance. The safety of our cast and crew - as well as our friends in Guadeloupe - is the most important thing to us and our policies have been designed to protect everybody whilst still delivering an amazing series for our tenth year.”
　　BBC Commissioning Editor, Tommy Bulfin, says: “We are so pleased that filming has started on this special tenth anniversary series of Death In Paradise. This series is packed-full of captivating cases and unexpected twists, as well as some really great surprises for fans of the show. Thanks so much to Red Planet Pictures for working so hard to make it happen.”
　　Death In Paradise is a Red Planet Pictures production for BBC One made with the support of the region of Guadeloupe and internationally distributed by BBC Studios. Series ten is produced by Jim Poyser.
