ABC's Last Man Standing; AMC's Humans; and FX's American Crime Story: The People v. O.J. Simpson.





AMC's HUMANS
  • The upcoming drama will begin its eight episode first season on Sunday, June 28 at 9/8c. The drama stars William Hurt, Katherine Parkinson, Gemma Chan, Tom Goodman-Hill, Lucy Carlss, Colin Morgan, Pixie Davis, Ivanno Jeremiah, Theo Stevenson, Emily Berrington, Neil Maskell, Will Tudor, Rebecca Front, Danny Webb and Sope Dirisu.
FX's AMERICAN CRIME STORY: THE PEOPLE V. O.J. SIMPSON
  • Steven Pasquale (The Good Wife, Bloodline) has joined the cast of the upcoming limited event series. He will play Mark Fuhrman, the detective investigating the slayings of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman who subsequently pleaded no contest to perjury charges and accepted a plea deal following his testimony in the O.J. Simpson (Cuba Gooding, Jr.) murder trial.
ABC's LAST MAN STANDING
  • Hallmark has landed the off-network syndication rights to the veteran sitcom starring Tim Allen. Repeats of the comedy will begin airing on the network in January 2016. Hallmark is a logical place for the show considering it already airs repeats of Allen's previous sitcom Home Improvement.
