DOUBT
July 1, 2017  | By David Bianculli

CBS, 8:00 p.m. ET

 

SERIES RETURN: This is not a recommendation. But it’s worth noting, because of the way CBS has treated this series from the start. (And, based on the premiere, rather deservedly.) Doubt, starring Katherine Heigl from Grey’s Anatomy as an attorney who becomes romantically intrigued by her possibly guilty client, didn’t premiere until midseason, in February 2017. By March, Doubt was gone – CBS canceled it after only two episodes had aired. That left 11 produced episodes to be televised, or amortized, somewhere – and that process begins tonight on CBS, when the remaining episodes of Doubt begin rolling out on summer Saturday evenings, the deadest of all dead spots on commercial broadcast TV. Costars, for the record, include Dule Hill from The West Wing, Laverne Cox from Orange Is the New Black, Dreama Walker from Don’t Trust the B---- in Apartment 23, and Elliott Gould from MASH – the movie, not the asterisked TV series.
