New Shows To Premiere On KEYE TV In September

Updated: Monday, August 6 2012, 01:40 PM CDT
KEYE TV and CBS have some exciting new programming starting in the Fall!

Mondays at 7:30 p.m. - Partners,
a comedy based on the lives of creators David Kohan and Max Mutchnick,
about two life-long best friends and business partners whose “bromance”
is tested when one of them is engaged to be married. Joe (David
Krumholtz) is an accomplished architect who leads with his head and not
his heart, especially in his love life. That’s in stark contrast to his
gay co-worker, Louis (Michael Urie), who is spontaneous, emotional and
prone to exaggeration.  Both have found joy in their love lives: Joe is
newly engaged to Ali (Sophia Bush), a beautiful and sophisticated
jewelry designer, while Louis is dating Wyatt (Brandon Routh), a vegan
nurse who Louis insists is just a promotion away from becoming a doctor.
As news of Joe’s engagement settles, time will tell if their business
and personal bond can adapt to the addition of two other important
relationships. Emmy Award winners David Kohan and Max Mutchnick are
executive producers for Warner Bros. Television. Emmy Award winner James
Burrows directed the pilot.

Tuesdays at 9 p.m. - Vegas, a drama starring Dennis Quaid and
Michael Chiklis, is inspired by the true story of former Las Vegas
Sheriff Ralph Lamb, a fourth-generation rancher tasked with bringing
order to Las Vegas in the 1960s, a gambling and entertainment Mecca
emerging from the tumbleweeds.  Ralph Lamb (Quaid) wants to be left in
peace to run his ranch, but Las Vegas is now swelling with outsiders and
corruption which are intruding on his simple life.  Recalling Lamb's
command as a military police officer during World War II, the Mayor
appeals to his sense of duty to look into a murder of a casino worker –
and so begins Lamb’s clash with Vincent Savino (Chiklis), a ruthless
Chicago gangster who plans to make Vegas his own.  Assisting Lamb in
keeping law and order are his two deputies: his diplomatic, even-keeled
brother Jack (Jason O'Mara) and his charming but impulsive son, Dixon
(Taylor Handley).  Ambitious Assistant District Attorney Katherine
O'Connell (Carrie-Anne Moss), who grew up on the ranch next to the
Lambs, also lends a hand in preserving justice.  In Vegas, two powerful
men – Lamb and Savino – are engaged in a fierce battle for control of
the budding oasis, and for both of them, folding is not an option.

Thursdays at 9 p.m. - Elementary, stars Jonny Lee Miller as
detective Sherlock Holmes and Lucy Liu as Dr. Joan Watson in a
modern-day drama about a crime-solving duo that cracks the NYPD’s most
impossible cases. Following his fall from grace in London and a stint in
rehab, eccentric Sherlock escapes to Manhattan where his wealthy father
forces him to live with his worst nightmare – a sober companion, Dr.
Watson.  A successful surgeon until she lost a patient and her license
three years ago, Watson views her current job as another opportunity to
help people, as well as paying a penance.  However, the restless
Sherlock is nothing like her previous clients.  He informs her that none
of her expertise as an addiction specialist applies to him and he’s
devised his own post-rehab regimen – resuming his work as a police
consultant in New York City. Watson has no choice but to accompany her
irascible new charge on his jobs.  But Sherlock finds her medical
background helpful, and Watson realizes she has a knack for playing
investigator. Sherlock’s police contact, Capt. Tobias “Toby” Gregson
(Aidan Quinn), knows from previous experience working with Scotland Yard
that Sherlock is brilliant at closing cases, and welcomes him as part
of the team.  With the mischievous Sherlock Holmes now running free in
New York solving crimes, it’s simple deduction that he’s going to need
someone to keep him grounded, and it’s elementary that it’s a job for
Watson.

Fridays at 8 p.m. - Made in Jersey, drama about a young
working-class woman who uses her street smarts to compete among her
pedigreed Manhattan colleagues at a prestigious New York law firm.
Martina Garretti (Janet Montgomery) finds her firm’s cutthroat landscape
challenging, but what she lacks in an Ivy League education she more
than makes up for with tenacity and blue-collar insight. After just a
few weeks, firm founder Donovan Stark (Kyle MacLachlan), takes note of
Martina’s ingenuity and resourcefulness, as does her sassy secretary
Cyndi Vega (Toni Trucks).  With the support of her big Italian family,
including her sexy older sister Bonnie (Erin Cummings), Martina is able
to stay true to her roots as a bold, passionate lawyer on the rise in a
new intimidating environment.
