-- Intelligence (January 7 on CBS): Josh Holloway (Lost) plays an agent with a chip in his brain, making him part machine. And he is mourning the loss of his wife. And he has a partner that watches over him. And the show centers on the role of humanity versus computers. Why is this beginning to sound an awful lot like Almost Human?
-- Chicago P.D. (January 8 on NBC): Since Chicago Fire has been such a success, let's give the police another chance (and step over the bodies of the earlier attempts, such as Chicago Code).
-- The Spoils of Babylon (January 9 on IFC): A little bit of humor added to the line-up. Toby Maquire leads a cast including Val Kilmer, Haley Joel Osment, Tim Robbins, Molly Shannon, Michael Sheen, David Spade, and Kristen Wiig, as they re-enact the bad drama miniseries from the 1970s. The question is whether they created anything better here.
-- Enlisted (January 10 on Fox): We have not seen a military comedy in awhile, and we shall see if this remains the case after this premiere. The show is a comedy about three brothers at Fort McGee in Florida. Reviews to date have been mixed, but it may be worth checking out.
-- Helix (January 10 on SyFy): You have probably seen the movie ten times - a team of researchers travels to the Arctic and finds something that endangers all of humanity. Are you ready to go back into the (frozen) water again?
