[dawson99]

bbc. The campaign we did for the justice for the 96 against the gooners. Altho no one in the studio even mentioned it John Motson (OBE) did say that something should be done and he was actually really good about making sure all viewers knew what was going on.

TV.com summary

Smith was a short-lived American television drama that premiered on September 19, 2006 at 10:00 p.m. ET on CBS and September 18, 2006 on CTV in Canada. The show follows a group of professional thieves who keep their work separate from the rest of their lives. The leader of the group, Bobby Stevens (played by Ray Liotta), seeks to end his criminal ways after a few more big scores. His plan is not quite successful, and his wife, Hope (Virginia Madsen), becomes suspicious. Each episode portrayed a heist or preparation for other jobs the thieves planned to undertake. Ongoing subplots examined each of the characters' double lives, a necessity in order to stay one step ahead of the authorities and shield their families.

Bobby's crew consists of:

    * Tom (Jonny Lee Miller), head of logistics and Bobby's right hand man
    * Joe (Franky G), who handles transportation needs
    * Jeff (Simon Baker), who manages the group's firepower
    * Annie (Amy Smart), a master of disguise and diversionary tactics who uses her looks to help the team
    * Marley (Elden Henson), Tom's younger brother who serves as the electronics and computer expert
    * Charlie (Shohreh Aghdashloo) acts as a boss, providing Bobby with information on a new job his crew should undertake.

On the other side of the law was FBI Agent Dodd (Chris Bauer), in charge of a team responsible for tracking down "Smith" and his crew. Dodd's second in command is FBI Agent Valez (Lisa Vidal).

John Wells was a writer and executive producer for the show. Smith was one of a growing number of television dramas that featured a cold opening (no opening credits). The show opened with drama, and at the end of the segment showed the words "SMITH" before going to the first commercial. The show's theme song was "Show Me How to Live" by Audioslave.

The show was also scheduled to be seen during the 2006 season in the UK on ITV4.[1] However, it was cancelled on October 6 after only three airings, becoming the first of the new TV shows to get cancelled.[2] However, CBS has not yielded production. Smith was quickly replaced by the medical drama 3 lbs which was also canceled after three episodes.

All 8 episodes of "Smith," including the 5 episodes that never aired on CBS, was put on the network's Innertube broadband video section for a few weeks. Warner Bros. Television will also make all 8 episodes available via digital download in November 2006 on Apple's iTunes Store, AOL, and Amazon. In addition, a series of synopses for episodes #9 to #13 is available.
