NBC has released a preview trailer as well as cast and episodic photos for The Irrational, their new Monday night drama starring Jesse L. Martin of Law & Order, Rent and The Flash fame. Because NBC produced and shot several episodes prior to the current writer and actor strikes, this is one of the few scripted series that will be offering new content in the Fall.
The premiere date for The Irrational is September 25; you can see the gallery and the trailer below.
