The Slap (NBC)

[Deckard]

This looks ridiculously horrible. I can't wait to watch it.

 

[EVILFACE]

Retarded.

But maybe the brat needed a slap.

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

I can't wait for season 2: The Kick

 

[karamazov80]

About damn time.

 

[SwedishHeat]

Would've fooled me if this was with the rest of the parodies at the end of the Community finale.

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

This'll last about as long as Hostages did

 

[JacktheRipper]

HA, HA, HA!! The Kick, The Pull, The Yank, The Nudge, The Step, The Flick, The Poke (might watch this one depending on who's in it), etc. all coming to NBC this Summer.

 

[batfan08]

It makes me sad that we live in a society where that's considered a viable plot for a TV show.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Totally cheap and exploitative. But if it manages to find an audience, it'll generate tons of discussion. Who doesn't have an
opinion on corporal punishment?

 

[epitaph04]

Geez i thought this was going to be a comedy.

 

[Sachiel]

Riveting!

 

[Kamandi]

Since it's Zachary Quinto shouldn't it be called "The Bitchslap"?

 

[karamazov80]

Be cool if every episode begins with someone getting slapped, and the episode is about the mystery of who did the slapping, why the slapping happened, the ramifications of the slap, etc. Like Columbo or Law and Order, but better.

Wrestle Kingdom 8: Shibata vs. Goto PV (iPPV January 4th) - YouTube

I can't access the clip as it's region-restricted. But it could be an adaptation of the original Australian show, which was a mini-series of 6 or 8 episodes. It wasn't a who-did it, but an investigation into the tensions that resulted from the event, ie what happened in that social circle's various relationships once the brat got a slap from someone who wasn't his parent. It was a good watch.

 

[karamazov80]

From what I've inferred, that is what happens here. It apparently leads to a lawsuit that goes to court, and I'm assuming, ultimately, murder/suicide.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Unfortunately, Quinto isn't wearing a gauntlet.

So basically the Snyderverse equivalent of Agents of SHIELD.
