So a cop, a district attorney, a medical examiner, and a reporter walk into a crime show...
They are the titular club, four women who pool their talents and assorted access to information to solve crimes. They're played by (respectively) Angie Harmon, remarkably even blander and more devoid of personality than she was on Law and Order; Laura Harris, appealing and pixie-ish despite being saddled with the TV season's most unflattering haircut; Paula Newsome, whose droll and sardonic presence is the best thing about the show; and Aubrey Dollar, who overdoes the naive routine, especially given her career.
I'm not a huge fan of crime procedurals; that particular formula has long since worn out its welcome for me. But if you do enjoy them, this is a reasonably appealing example of the genre. It's not going to stretch TV boundaries (or your imagination) in any way whatsoever, but it works tolerably well in a comfort-food kinda way.
