What you may need to know:

1. Say hello to the best TV show you probably missed this year.

2. Enlightened was created by and co-starred Mike White, who did School Of Rock (2003) and the thoroughly unsettling Chuck & Buck (2000). Jonathan Demme directed a bunch of them.

3. Viewers may have been put off by Laura Dern playing the most irritating TV character since David Brent – but that was kind of the point. Stick with it, and it pays off.

4. The Big Question: Dylan McDermott or Dermot Mulroney?

5. What happened to Luke ‘brother of Owen’ Wilson? A decade ago he starred in Old School (2003), co-starring Vince Vaughan and Will Ferrell. Too many bad movies sealed his fate. There’s no coming back from My Super Ex-Girlfriend (2006).

6. Other underappreciated 2012 TV shows you may have missed: Delocated, Lillyhammer and Sharon Horgan’s patchy but fun Dead Boss.

 

Release Date: Spring 2013
