USA announces summer TV slate, sets Jessica Biel's 'The Sinner' premiere
Jessica Biel and Cat Deeley are headed to USA this summer.
The network unveiled its seasonal programming slate, including series premiere dates for Biel’s scripted drama The Sinner (Wednesday, Aug. 2 at 10 p.m. ET) and Deeley’s celebrity-centric game show Big Little Star (Wednesday, May 31 at 9 p.m. ET).
Returning series include Suits for a seventh season (Wednesday, July 12 at 9 p.m. ET), Queen of the South for a sophomore go-round (Thursday, June 8 at 10 p.m. ET), a third season of Playing House (Friday, June 23 at 11 p.m. ET), and the return of Shooter for season 2 (Tuesday, July 18 at 10 p.m. ET). The 100th episode of Suits is slated for Aug. 30.
Starring Biel (who also executive-produces) and Bill Pullman, The Sinner charts the deadly journey of a young mother (Biel) who, in a fit of unexplainable rage, seemingly kills a stranger. An inquisitive detective (Pullman) obsesses over the case, attempting to get to the bottom of the true motive behind the act. The eight-episode thriller is adapted from Petra Hammesfahr’s 2007 novel of the same name.
Big Little Star sees Deeley facilitating a competition between celebrity guests, who team with their children as they “playfully test their knowledge of one another,” according to the freshman show’s synopsis.
