Fox Sets Premiere Date for Monday Fall Dramas; Jim Belushi Gets Discovery Series

Fox has set a premiere date for its Fall Monday dramas. Don't miss the series premiere of Filthy Rich, starring Kim Cattarall on Monday, Sept. 21 at 9/8 central following the broadcast premiere of L.A.'s Finest starring Gabrielle Union and Jessica Alba at 8/7c. Filthy Rich is a southern Gothic family soap in which wealth, power and religion collide - with outrageously soapy results. When the patriarch (Emmy Award winner Gerald McRaney, This Is Us, 24: Legacy) of a mega-rich Southern family, famed for creating a wildly successful Christian television network, dies in a plane crash, his wife (five-time Emmy Award nominee and Screen Actors Guild and Golden Globe winner Kim Cattrall, Sex and the City) and family are stunned to learn that he fathered three illegitimate children, all of whom are written into his will, threatening their family name and fortune. With monumental twists and turns,
From the universe of the Jerry Bruckheimer Bad Boys movie franchise and Sony Pictures Television, the action-drama series L.A.'s Finest follows Syd Burnett (Gabrielle Union), last seen in Miami taking down a drug cartel, who has seemingly left her complicated past behind to become an LAPD detective. Paired with a new partner, Nancy McKenna (Jessica Alba), a working mom with an equally complex history, Syd is forced to confront how her unapologetic lifestyle may be masking a greater personal secret. Taking on the most dangerous criminals in Los Angeles while skirting the rules, and speed limits, Syd and Nancy become a force to be reckoned with - on the streets, and in each other's lives. The series also stars Zack Gilford, Duane Martin, Ryan McPartlin, Sophie Reynolds and Ernie Hudson.
Actor Jim Belushi (According to Jim, SNL) is a man of many talents - actor, singer, dancer and now... legal cannabis farmer. Using his many talents, combined with an immense passion, Jim is ready for his next stage in life - building a cannabis business from scratch in southern Oregon. Informative, mischievous and moving, the all-new series, Growing Belushi, premieres on Discovery Wednesday, August 19 at 10 PM ET/PT and is produced by Original Productions and Live Nation Productions. True to heart, Jim has decided to dedicate his life to starting and running a flourishing legal cannabis farm. As they navigate the many challenges of this newly legalized industry, Jim and his ragtag team of farmers have an opportunity to follow their passion and find success in something they believe in. Joined by his cousin Chris and with appearances from Dan Aykroyd, Judy Belushi and a cast of misfits (including Jim's own family), as well as a musical appearance by The Blues Brothers, Growing Belushi will take Discovery's audiences inside Jim's world and show the incredible effort it takes to build a legal cannabis operation.
