NBCUniversal held a Summer Press Day today in Pasadena, California, and while KSiteTV wasn’t there to cover it — did you guys lose the invite? — fans of Smallville and The Vampire Diaries will love to see some images that the network released today.
The images feature Erica Durance (Lois Lane from Smallville) and Daniel Gillies (TVD’s Elijah!) promoting their new series Saving Hope, which will air on NBC over the summer.
Here’s how they describe Saving Hope, and the images can be found below the description.
“Saving Hope” is a new, hour-long original drama series that stars Erica Durance (“Smallville”), Michael Shanks (“Stargate Atlantis”), Daniel Gillies (“The Vampire Diaries”), Huse Madhavji (“Combat Hospital,” “Star!” “Daily”), Julia Taylor-Ross (“Rookie Blue”) and Kristopher Turner (“Rookie Blue,” “The Listener”). The series is from acclaimed Gemini Award-winning producers Ilana Frank and David Wellington (“The Eleventh Hour,” “Would Be Kings,” “Rookie Blue”).
In “Saving Hope,” when charismatic Chief of Surgery Charlie Harris (Shanks) at Hope-Zion Hospital ends up in a coma, he leaves the hospital in chaos — and his fiancée and fellow surgeon, Alex Reid (Durance), in a state of shock. Along with newly arrived star surgeon, Joel Goran (Gillies), Reid races to save Harris’ life. As the action unfolds, the comatose Harris explores the hospital halls in “spirit” form, not sure if he’s a ghost or a figment of his own imagination. Reid, along with her fellow doctors, press on to save his life and those of their other patients as they deal with the complicated and courageous decisions that are made in their daily struggle to keep hope alive.
“Saving Hope” is produced by Ilana C. Frank Films (ICFF) with Entertainment One (eOne), in association with CTV and NBC. The series is executive-produced by Ilana Frank and David Wellington for ICFF, Noreen Halpern (“Hell on Wheels,” “Call Me Fitz”) and John Morayniss (“The Firm,” “Haven”) for Entertainment One and Lesley Harrison. Executive producers and show-runners are Morwyn Brebner (“Rookie Blue”) and Aaron Martin (“Being Erica”). The series was created by Malcolm MacRury (“Crash and Burn,” “Republic of Doyle”) and Morwyn Brebner. David Wellington directed the pilot.

I want on my television tom Welling and Cassidy freeman are an great couple with great sexual attraction. congratulation Erica!
Erica Durance! Yes! She was the only reason I watched Smallville in the first place. Mary, Sonia and Luna (maybe even John) appear to be the same person. Sad that fans of Cassidy Freeman have to resort to sock puppetry…..
I Miss Lois!
