I know everyone is going to be up in arms about Bruce not starring in this show but Bruce picked this show for a reason and not because of the paycheck. I know all the Bruce fans want a campy show starring there hero but it will be nice to see Bruce on television every week. No mention of when the show air, probably mid-season.
