SERIES PREMIERE: This new ABC series is an obvious variant on the How to Get Away with Murder model – start with a serious crime (in this case, a terrorist attack blowing up New York’s Grand Central Terminal), and spend a year swimming with the fishes. Or, at least, the red herrings. The premiere episode isn’t that engaging, but its leading lady, as a Quantico trainee who both survives and is suspected of planning the blast, is a potential breakout star. In the States, that is: She’s Bollywood star Priyanka Chopra, who already is a big star, and has been for years, back in India. For a full review, read Ed Bark's Uncle Barky's Bytes.
