The Mysteries of Laura

NBC's upcoming new drama starring sitcom veteran Debra Messing, The Mysteries of Laura, will receive a special sneak peek at 10pm on Wednesday, September 17 after the finale of America's Got Talent. It was previously scheduled to premiere on Wednesday, Sept. 24 at 8pm. The series will still air Wednesdays at 8pm beginning on Sept. 24, though.

The Mysteries of Laura stars Debra Messing (Will & Grace) as Laura Diamond, a brilliant NYPD homicide detective who balances her "Columbo" day job with a crazy family life that includes two unruly twin boys and a soon-to-be ex-husband - also a cop - who just can't seem to sign the divorce papers. Between cleaning up after her boys and cleaning up the streets, she would be the first to admit she has her "hot mess" moments in this authentic look at what it really means to be a "working mom" today. Somehow, she makes it all work with the help of her sexy and understanding partner, and things becomes even more complicated when her husband (Josh Lucas) ironically becomes her boss at the precinct. For Laura, every day is a high-wire balancing act.
