MINISERIES PREMIERE: This new six-part miniseries was previewed by TNT last night after the same network’s live coverage of the Screen Actors Guild awards. Tonight the same premiere episode is repeated, but in the show’s regular Monday time slot. It stars Chris Pine as a washed-up newspaper reporter in 1965, who ends up reheating a cold case that winds its way all the way back to infamous Black Dahlia murder, and beyond. India Eisley co-stars as a teenager whose bloodline is crucial to the drama’s central story line – a dynamic not that far from The Passage, now that I think about it. For full reviews, see David Hinckley’s All Along the Watchtower, and Ed Bark's Uncle Barky's Bytes. And for my review on NPR’s Fresh Air with Terry Gross, visit the Fresh Air website.
