Toplined by Tony and Emmy Award winner Kristin Chenoweth, NBC's "Trial & Error: Lady, Killer" will return to East Peck when the second season debuts Thursday, July 19 at 9 and 9:30 p.m. Last season the 9 p.m. telecast of "Trial & Error" averaged a 1.3 rating in adults 18-49 and 5.5 million viewers overall in "live plus seven day" ratings from Nielsen Media Research and the 9:30 episode averaged a 1.1 in 18-49 and 4.4 million viewers. The series delivered a strong upscale audience, indexing at a 119 at 9 p.m. and a 121 at 9:30 among adults 18-49 in $100K+ homes (with 100 representing an average concentration of those viewers). The first season of "Trial & Error" is now available exclusively on the NBC App and Video on Demand. Critics were fans of the first season, with Vulture writing, "Deconstructing and poking fun at true crime is a great idea, and 'Trial & Error'... has some real fun with that." Entertainment Weekly added, "The true-crime genre was due for a good zinging. It got one." In the spirit of true crime documentaries, the second season of this outrageous fish-out-of-water comedy centers on bright-eyed New York lawyer Josh Segal (Nicholas D'Agosto), still relatively a newcomer in a tiny southern town, who is sturdily posed for his next big case there. His mission? To defend the eccentric first lady of East Peck, Lavinia Peck-Foster (Kristin Chenoweth), known for her flamboyant outfits, large hats and hairless cat, and who suddenly finds herself accused of the bizarre murder of her beloved husband. As Josh continues to settle into his makeshift office behind a taxidermy shop while working with his quirky team of local misfits, he suspects that winning his second big case this time should be easy (especially when his client is the town favorite), but is it? The cast also includes Jayma Mays, Sherri Shepherd, Steven Boyer and Amanda Payton.

I'll have to watch this. I'm amazed it came back for a second season.

As someone who watched Season 1 a while ago and only watched The Staircase recently, I had some severe Deja Vu. I kept turning to my daughter, who I was watching The Staircase with and asking "why does this seem so familiar?". Only later did it hit me.

Did Kristin Chenoweth have plastic surgery or is it just aging or a combo of both?

She was cute.

She’s annoying to me the way that woman violinist is annoying to some people.

Well, she's 50 and an actress, so of course it's both I think she looks good.

I love that they keep giving Anne a ridiculous condition every episode. "Random dog-level hearing"

So I caught up on the last 4 episodes today. Episodes 5 & 6, for some reason, weren't recorded by my DVR, so I watched those on demand.

I'm enjoying the season and like how they handled the twist in the middle of the season, although I saw it coming.

I like the show a lot, though I preferred John Lithgow to Kristen Chenoweth.
Anne's great. I loved the suddenly-jump-really-high one, I literally laughed out loud at that.

I object!

Seriously though, it's a shame WB couldn't find any other network/streaming service to pick it up. I guess the days of streaming services swooping in to rescue network shows is coming to a middle.
