Here is a wrap-up of all the news you need to know from Monday, August 28, 2023.
NBC has dropped the official trailer for its upcoming procedural drama, The Irrational, starring The Flash’s Jesse L. Martin.
The series follows world-renowned professor of behavioral science Alec Mercer (Martin) as he lends his unique expertise to an array of high-stakes cases involving governments, law enforcement, and corporations.
His insight and unconventional approach to understanding human behavior led him and the team on a series of intense, unexpected journeys to solve illogical puzzles and perplexing mysteries.
The Irrational is based on best-selling author Dan Ariely’s book, Predictably Irrational.
Maahra Hill, Travina Springer, Molly Kunz, and Arash DeMaxi also star.
The promo features plenty of crime-solving goodness that we’re sure will land well with the NBC audience.
Many procedurals are off the air due to the WGA and SAG AFTRA strikes, fans will be on the lookout for new shows.
