威廉姆·H·梅西领衔主演的《无耻之徒》续订第十季，今年播出。

　　《无耻之徒》正式续订第9季。该剧已成为showtime最长寿+收视最高的台柱，续订理所当然。经历第8季涨薪风波后，第9季也早早宣布“老爹”William H. Macy和“大姐”Emmy Rossum带领的全员回归。

在这部剧集里，获得艾美奖的William H. Macy扮演有六个孩子的单身父亲Frank。他收入不高，整天酗酒，根本不管儿女们的死活，不到20岁的大女儿Fiona（Emmy Rossum）不得不承担起照顾五个弟妹以及养家糊口的责任。 　　读高三的Philip（Jeremy Allen White扮演）绰号「Lip」，虽然到处惹是生非，但学习还算用功。班上出了名的小荡妇Karen（Laura Slade Wiggins扮演）总是在课后找Philip「单独辅导」，并以口交作为「回报」。他们俩干那档子事的时候，Karen的母亲Sheila（Joan Cusack扮演）就在厨房里烤甜饼，但是却装作不知道。 　　读高二的Ian（Cameron Monaghan）是个同性恋，课余时间在当地一家杂货店里打工。Ian和老板Kash保持着秘密的性关系。Kesh是个有家室的男人，膝下有两个孩子。尽管Kash是个穆斯林，但他的妻子却是个白人，还是个虔诚的穆斯林。 　　只有10岁的Debbie（Emma Kenney扮演）是家中「最正常」的孩子，只不过……她有小偷小摸的毛病。与此同时，她8岁的弟弟Carl（Ethan Cutkosky扮演）虐待动物成瘾，偷人家的自行车，而且还从教堂的募捐盘里偷钱，美其名曰是「补贴家用」。没人注意的时候，整瓶整瓶喝啤酒是他最大的乐趣。 　　最小的孩子Liam刚刚学会走路，是个黑白混血儿。他是Frank的亲生儿子。Frank和Fiona请不起保姆，只好全家人轮流照看Liam。等轮到Debbie的时候，她把Liam带到学校里当「展览品」。 　　Veronica（Shanola Hampton扮演）是Fiona最好的朋友，Veronica的男友Kevin在Frank常去的酒吧里打工。Veronica和Kevin喜欢玩「女王性虐」游戏，经常可以看到Kevin双手双脚被捆住，嘴里塞着钳口球，而Veronica穿着紧身皮衣在旁边玩弄他。 　　第一季共12集，第二季于2012年1月8日播出。

　　该剧改编自约翰·格里森姆的同名畅销小说，年轻的律师Rudy Baylor决心反抗不公，与全美最大的公司斗争。

　　Mitch Buchannon, Hobie, Eddie and Shauni travel to northern California's rugged gold country, with C.J. as their guide, to investigate the death of Mitch's prospector uncle where they find an old treasure map leading to a valuable gold nugget along a rough river. Back at Baywatch, two new recruits show up for rookie training season who are the wealthy and spoiled teen Matt Brody, and lower class swim champion Summer Quinn who moves to California with her divorced single mother looking to escape from an abusive past.

　　While rowing out in the ocean, Mitch rescues an underwater photographer, named Linda, floating on some wreckage. Linda's somewhat disjointed, frantic story about something attacking her in an underwater cave which killed her partner and destroyed her boat is misconstructed by Kay Morgan, an ambitious, publicity seeking newspaper reporter, who creates a media frenzy by starting rumors about a "creature in the bay." Harvey Miller, the new lifeguard and prankster, benefits from the events by selling undersea creature T-shirts. Meanwhile, Shauni rescues a young girl from drowning and soon becomes compelled to rescue the girl, her brother and their mother from the life they live in the slums of South-Central L.A., much to Eddie's chagrin. While Shauni deals with her possessive father who disapproves of her lifeguard job, Mitch also pressures Captain Thorp to ask for funding for new advanced motorboats, called Scarabs, for the team.

　　美国的救生员剧《生死海滩》由大卫·哈塞尔霍夫和帕米拉·安德逊主演，是世界上收视率最高的电视连续剧。故事情节围绕海滩护卫队员营救故事展开，最大看点是海边的旖旎风景，以及无数的泳装帅哥美女。据估计在142个国家和地区内每周收看该剧的人数超过11亿。
　　《Baywatch》从1989年播映到2001年共播出了11个季。国内曾引进过前2季，相信不少人看过，讲述一大堆俊男美女的海岸救生员的故事。其中男主角David Hasselhoff 曾出演过《霹雳游侠》。Baywatch比较类似于《ER》，主题曲歌词翻译过来几乎就是美国版的《接过雷锋的抢》，每集不管大事小事都要救几个落水的，就单单一个沙滩的救生员就能拍出那么多集来，每集一个故事，几乎涉及到了生活的方方面面。
