Roush on Women's Murder Club
Question: I am extremely happy that ABC has decided to put
Women's Murder Club back on this season. I'm not really happy about the time slot, but I can always record
SVU.
Club has the best writing of all the new shows this past season, the chemistry is great and I'm just a huge Angie Harmon fan. Will ABC be picking it up for next season?

Matt Roush: Depends on how these next three episodes do, creatively as well as in the ratings. The experiment starts this Tuesday at 10 pm/ET — unfortunately, it's going head-to-head with a high-profile Law & Order: Special Victims Unit episode featuring Robin Williams. In its favor, ABC would love to have a weekly procedural crime drama, and with James Patterson's name attached as well as Harmon's fan base, this still could be the network's best shot, if they're patient with it.
