Southland Moves to TNT – Premieres Jan. 12
Dec 21st, 2009 by Lynn DeVries

Southland-Spoilers

Los Angeles, CA (CNS) – The police drama “Southland” is making its way back to your television set, this time on a new channel. The former NBC series will be moving to TNT with a network premiere on January 12.

Executive Producers Chris Chulack and Ann Biderman sat down with reporters to discuss the new season and what fans can expect. Stars of the show Michael Cudlitz, Regina King and Ben McKenzie were also there to answer questions and discuss their excitement over the newest season.
The series is set in Los Angeles and follows the experiences and lives of cops, criminals, victims and their families. The series stars Cudlitz as John Cooper, an experienced officer assigned to train rookie Ben Sherman, played by McKenzie. King plays Detective Lydia Adams, a woman trying to balance work with the responsibility of caring for her mother.

When asked about what would be different about this season, producers Chulack and Biderman elaborated. Chulack explains saying, “Everybody forgets that our pick up for last year was for six episodes and we knew that’s all we were going to do. So, that impacted the stories we were telling because we knew we only had the pilot plus six. This year, we thought we had at least had thirteen. So, just by the number of episodes by its nature it was going to be a little different in the storytelling.”

Biderman told reporters, “In general, you’re always trying to find that balance. You want the characters to deepen and have complicated lives — and be complicated, interesting characters.”

Former “OC” star Ben McKenzie likes the “indie” feel of the series, saying, “We’re operating with a relatively small crew. We’re shooting out on location. We’re going really fast. We have to go really fast, but everybody is really coming knowing their jobs and wanting to excel in their jobs. So, I think it’s exhilarating because of that. That, to me, makes it unique and I think it translates to the screen.”

McKenzie continues saying, “The spontaneity of the show, the realism of somewhat subtle moments between a couple of characters, you only get that if everybody is stepping up their game and is trying to be as realistic as they can be.”

TNT will be presenting 13 episodes of the series beginning on Tuesday, January 12 with a commercial-free extended presentation of the pilot episode that will feature never-before-seen footage. Starting on Tuesday, March 2, TNT will then air six all-new episodes. [Source: All Headline News]
