Preview: NBC's "Smash"

Looks promising. And a talented cast. Coming to NBC in February 2012.

I do have a tiny quibble with the "and introducing Katherine McPhee" - a bit grand since she's done movies and been a very public recording artist for years. I hardly think the people who tune in for this show will be "introduced" to Katherine McPhee. However, that's not a comment on her talent. I like her a lot.

But, the show does look interesting. Just the shots of people auditioning take me back to my New York days as an actor. (I actually had a director take a cell phone call during an audition once). Ah, the glamour of it all.
