In the gritty world of the NYPD, no one's tougher than Det. Robert Ironside. He's a fearless cop who won't stop until the guilty are brought to justice. He and his trusted, handpicked team of specialists - Virgil, Holly and Teddy, as well as his former partner Gary and boss, Det. Ed Rollins - will do whatever it takes to solve New York's most difficult and notorious crimes. As a detective, Ironside's instincts are second to none, and those around him have to stay on their toes if they want to keep up because when his spine was shattered by a bullet two years ago, Ironside swore he'd never let a wheelchair slow him down...

Get ready for the backlash that an able-bodied actor was cast in a wheelchair. Blair Underwood leads the cast in this remake of the 1967-75 Raymond Burr series (also on NBC). No doubt Underwood can carry the show just fine. At the end of the day, it's simply a police procedural based in NY. I'm guessing NBC is hoping to get some sampling based on the title alone. And to give all those NYC-based actors gigs since Law & Order is down to just one.
