TV Hot Spot: The Knights Of Prosperity

SPECIAL Preview: The Knights Of Prosperity Season 1 (Coming Soon)

Review by: Sal


Summary:For almost 20 years, Eugene Gurkin has dreamt of opening a bar, but his dead end job on the late, late janitorial shift won't even fund a bottle of premium booze. In the wake of a co-worker's death, he catches an episode of television. Call it divine intervention, call it a dumb idea, but whatever it is takes hold of Eugene and soon he recruits a group of misfits into his "gang" for a heist to finance their dreams. The target: Rock icon Mick Jagger's super-luxe Central Park West apartment. Working together, this band of affable, new-age Robin Hoods, who have never even shoplifted a candy bar, are soon casing the joint and prepping for their crime. What they don't know is that there's a much richer target for them... the chance to find hope, self-esteem and confidence within themselves.

Personal Thoughts: Hey everyone. I just thought I would show a preview to this ABC series which will be premiering on the 3rd of January 2007. When they announced the show for a fall release I couldn't wait. But some of the ABC executives thought it was a bit early to speculate how this series will do. And with that they placed it on hold. Some even thought that the series wouldn't get picked up until later in the year, but turns out ABC is picking it up for a January release. The promos look funny, and clips of it are hilarious. The cast of course are well known, Donal Logue (Grounded for Life) and the other stars have all had experience on hit television shows. So hopefully their luck will be brought with them and help this series become a hit. The reason I found it funny in the first place was that I found it unique to anything that is out there at the moment. A bunch of people wanting to become thieves. I can't wait. I just hope that the ratings help the series too. TV is very challenging these days! Anyway so I think that is enough from me. You guys could check out more about this series as the weeks go by, until the 3rd of Jan. But until then, Thank you again for checking it out and watch out for the latest review of the Mid-Season Finale of Brothers & Sisters coming out tomorrow!

Take Care everyone!
