Prime Suspect: First Look at NBC's New Drama Pilot

The NBC Upfront presentation is currently taking place in New York City. The network has already released its 2011-2012 schedule (view it here) and the network is also releasing sneak peeks for its new pilots that will be premiering in the fall or during midseason.

Prime Suspect is a remake of a British television series of the same name. The NBC version stars Maria Bello as Detective Jane Timoney. Timoney is a homicide detective in New York City. Having just transferred into a new job, she's up against tough competition in a primarily male-dominated unit. Timoney, apparently, also has her own sketcky past and is often rude, reckless and forceful.

Other stars of the show include: Aidan Quinn (Unknown), Brian O’Byrne (Flash Forward), Tim Griffin (Star Trek), Kirk Acevedo (Fringe), Joe Nieves (How I Met Your Mother), Damon Gupton (The Last Airbender) and Peter Gerety (Blue Bloods).

Prime Suspect will be airing on NBC on Thursdays at 10:00 p.m., which is a bit of an odd choice since it's following their comedy block on Thursday nights.

Below are three sneak peeks from the pilot episode of Prime Suspect. What do you think about NBC remaking this show for the U.S.?
