　　Apple订购半小时剧集《狄金森》(Dickinson，暂译)，该剧由海莉·斯坦菲尔德主演，她将在剧中扮演二十世纪现代主义诗歌先驱之一艾米莉·狄金森。阿莲娜·史密斯(《婚外情事》)编剧，大卫·戈登·格林执导。剧集将设定在艾米莉·狄金森生活的时代，故事围绕狄金森家庭，她自我创造诗歌的历程等展开。剧集也将见证狄金森个人的成长过程。

　　纽约警察和检察官的故事，跨越15个春秋，1990年首播，至今仍受到亿万观众瞩目的长剧。
　　law & order第55届艾美奖最大的遗憾，已连续11年入围剧情类最佳电视剧奖提名的这部热门电视剧，这次却意外地未被提名，粉碎了它原本想要缔造的12次提名新高。
　　本片融警匪与法庭于一体的电视剧，片中讲述的犯罪基本原于真实生活，往往是近期报纸上的头条新闻。节目分为两部分，上半部分介绍警察研究现场，征询证人，提审嫌疑犯等一系列的侦破活动，后半部分详尽记录了案件侦破的后期工作，案件转交到检查官手里，检查官衡量案情，起诉，直到庭审，节奏紧凑，扣人心弦。由于最终坏人不一定被绳之于法，所以观众看的时候往往暗自捏一把汗。
　　这个剧集除了已经播出的15季之外，还包括3个特别的系列，一个是
　　Special Victims Unit 系列（6季），一个是Criminal Intent 系列（4季），和Trial By Jury
　　系列。可见其火爆程度。堪称NBC历史上，乃至美国影史上最宏伟的剧集。
　　"In the criminal justice system meijubar.net, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the police, who investigate crime; and the district attorneys, who prosecute the offenders. These are there stories. "
　　这是Law & Order十四年如一日，也是我百听不厌的开场白，是以Law & Order franchise(包括spin-off的SVU)都兼有探员的办案过程跟检察官在法庭上的滔滔雄辩，这二者相互分庭抗礼成为Law & Order奠定其cop drama之教父地位的独特魅力，但是近来每回看Law & Order，都彷彿只是在等待后半小时的法庭戏上，也不是说前面的办案就不精采，但是总要在进入起诉过程中才显出本剧的成熟、世故，细腻精妙处的炉火纯青；一男一女老少两位检察官的不同考量而激盪出的互动、辩证，起诉的战略方针往往不只是黑白分明的司法正义考量，而牵扯到背后司法制度及其偏狭漏洞、细微的政治空气，Law & Order更不只是关在摄影棚里编造天马行空的离奇案件，它每回总是不犹疑地定睛盯上社会中的敏感命题。

　　《月殒天劫》（Impact），由《Supernatural》、《Reaper》和《Terminator：The Sarah Connor Chronicles》导演Mike Rohl执导的一部科幻灾难迷你剧，将于6月21日、28日在ABC播出。故事主要描述一颗流星击中月球后，导致了一系列灾难性的后果。如同电影《世界末日》（Armageddon）的情节一样，人类派出一支精英团队前往月球，试图寻找拯救地球的最后途径。
　　这是不是意味着《月殒天劫》仅仅是一部没有新意的、乏味的「复制品」呢？答案是否定的。这部投资1400万美元、长度为3小时、由Natasha Henstridge、David James Elliott、James Cromwell、Steven Culp等众多知名演员演出的迷你剧，还是有不少独创的亮点。
　　正当人们兴致勃勃地欣赏万年一遇的巨型流星雨时，一颗躲藏在流星群中的棕矮星突然冲向月球。巨大的冲击力引起恐怖的爆炸，月球表面的部分区域瞬间碎裂成岩屑。碎片很快坠入地球的大气层，所及之处陷入一片火海。虽然损失并不算大，但极度恐慌的情绪还是在全世界范围内迅速蔓延开来。与此同时，地球上出现了一系列异常－－最开始只是手机信号消失、不规则的静电干扰、奇怪的潮汐现象等不太惹人注目的现象，但事情显然并不这么简单。
　　世界上最顶尖的科学家们－－Alex，Maddie和Roland－－开始收集相关线索，试图解读其中的玄机。然而他们惊讶地发现，月球的轨道可能已被彻底改变。更糟糕的是，地球上的异常现象已到了不容忽视的地步－－来自月球的巨大「磁涌」已足以干扰地球的地心引力。地球上某些区域里的人、物体甚至汽车，经常无缘无故地陷入短暂的失重状态。这些区域的产生是随机的，相互独立的。
　　经过精确计算，Alex等人证实：还有39天的时间，地球将和月球「迎头相撞」，世界的末日、人类的末日将在同一天到来！

　　《黑道家族》（The Sopranos）是描写美国纽泽西州北部义大利裔黑手党的虚构电视影集，制作人是David Chase。1999年1月10日在北美HBO首播第一季。本影集自开播以后就非常成功，甚至成为一种文化现象。
　　本剧拥有广大的收视群，其开创性地以写实镜头呈现黑手党生活、美国家庭、义裔美国人社群、暴力支配的世界与道德的灰色地带，赢得观众、影评的诸多喝采。如同许多其他HBO制播的影集如《六呎风云》、《欲望城市》，《黑道家族》也以成年人的收视群众为主，因为其镜头包含了许多血腥暴力、正面裸露、毒品及亵渎性的文字。
　　《黑道家族》由詹姆士·甘多费尼（James Gandolfini）、萝兰·布雷柯（Lorraine Bracco）、艾迪·法柯（Edie Falco）及麦克·英普雷欧里（Michael Imperioli）领衔主演。剧情的主线围绕在东尼·沙普蓝诺（甘多费尼饰）的家庭与自己所领导的犯罪组织的各式矛盾与冲突。

　　风暴追逐者、幸存者和急救人员讲述了他们在火山、龙卷风、飓风和地震中的悲惨经历。

　　第五个季节集中在媒体行业。巴尔的摩太阳报面对利润的下滑、记者和新闻的数量减少、新闻质量下降的困境，如何报道被杀流浪者的新闻专题。
　　第四季结束后的十五个月，市长Carcetti削减警局预算缩减教育赤字迫使案件调查中止。McNulty回到重案组，通过伪造证据制造了流浪者连环杀人案。暗自联系记者，得到社会关注，最终争取到市长支持查案。McNulty 将所得资源分配给警局的侦探使得多个案件取得重大进展……
