Wicked City

Each season Wicked City will follow a different case set in a different noteworthy era of LA history, starting with a murder case from 1982 centered on the rock and roll, cocaine-infused revelry of the Sunset Strip. Alliances are formed between detectives, reporters, drug dealers and club-goers to solve a serial murder case.

Wicked City stars Adam Rothenberg as Jack, Ed Westwick as Kent, Taissa Farmiga as Karen, Gabriel Luna as Paco, Karolina Wydra as Dianne, Holley Fain as Trish, Darrell Britt-Gibson as Diver, Anne Winters as Vicki and Erika Christensen as Betty.

Wicked City was written by Steven Baigelman. Executive producers are Steven Baigelman, Todd Lieberman, David Hoberman and Laurie Zaks. Wicked City is produced by ABC Studios.

I just don't know about this one yet. I see people already comparing it to HBO's, True Detective, but that seems to be a little premature, the only comparison you may be able to make is that it will be a different cast each season (if the show is renewed beyond the first).

That hair!

Hmm. Agreed. Not sure what to make of this one yet. I'm slightly interested but it seems like a niche cable show. May not pull a huge audience, but stranger things have happened.

Not to mention, they want to pull a True Detective and do a completely new story next time.

Oh they do? Hmm.

Yup, they were talking about it on Deadline when they were saying which shows got picked up. American Crime on ABC now wants to pull a Ryan Murphy and keep some of the cast around for the next season and have them play someone else.

Totally will be canceled, ratings were really bad.

Canceled!

Not surprised. Ed Westwick needs an ensemble. he isn't strong enough to carry a series alone.
