A young medical student enrolls in the prestigious college where her father once taught in order to investigate his mysterious death, uncovering evidence of conspiracy and corruption at the same time the school loosens its notoriously strict admissions policy. For the past 900 years Bridgeford University, Trinity College has been the learning institution of choice for the wealthy elite. Now, they're about to open their hallowed halls to commoners for the very first time. Her father Richard having recently perished immediately after resigning from Trinity, Charlotte Arc (Antonia Bernath) signs up for classes and prepares to launch an exhaustive investigation. But getting answers won't be easy. The Dandelion Club is a secret society at Trinity that seems to have a tight stronghold on the flow of information. Its members are the richest of the rich; privileged and arrogant, they answer to no one. Meanwhile, malevolent Professor Maltravers (Charles Dance) presides over it all with a diabolical glimmer in his eye, and the student body seems determined to prevent the newest arrivals from hastening the downfall of the mighty institution. Now the closer Charlotte gets to the truth, the greater the danger grows. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Seven years after playing the David Bowie-esque glam rocker in Velvet Goldmine, actor Jonathan Rhys-Meyers tackles the role of the biggest rock-and-roller of all time -- The King -- in this television miniseries. CBS' Elvis traces Elvis Presley's rise from being a humble, poor kid in early-'50s Memphis to being an isolated, prescription-drug-addicted superstar fearful of going on-stage for his 1968 comeback special. Along the way, he's torn between his devotion to his mama Gladys (Camryn Manheim) and the machinations of his stealthy manager, "Colonel" Tom Parker (Randy Quaid). Among Presley's hurdles: his R&B music and performance style prompts cries of obscenity from community leaders; he's drafted for the Army and decides to go; and he longs to become a serious movie star, although the Colonel has different ideas. Elvis was significant in that it was the first biopic of the star to allow the use of The King's original recordings, lip-synched by Rhys-Meyers. ~ Michael Hastings, Rovi
