“How to Get Away with Murder” premieres tonight on Sony Channel

"I don't know what terrible things you've done in your life up to this point, but clearly your karma's out of balance to get assigned my class. I'm Professor Annalise Keating and this is Criminal Law 100 or as I prefer to call it, How to Get Away with Murder."

"How to Get Away with Murder" will premiere tonight at 9:05 PM on Sony Channel, starring Academy Award nominee Viola Davis as the brilliant, charismatic criminal law professor  named Annalise Keating who is everything you hope your Criminal Law professor would be. She teaches a course that she prefers to be called "How to Get Away with Murder".

Annalise Keating choose the brightest students in her class to join her at her firm. The students vying for this coveted include Wes Gibbins (Alfred Enoch), a wide eyed, likable boy-next-door recently accepted off the wait list; Michaela Pratt (Aja Naomi King), a confident ambitious overachiever born knowing how to "lean in"; Connor Walsh (Jack Falahee), a sly sophisticated heart breaker used to getting any prize he lays his eyes on; Laurel Castillo (Karla Souza), a quiet, sensitive idealist who's easy to underestimate and Asher Millstone (Matt McGorry), an entitled know-it all born into a world of Ivy League educations and country club memberships. These bright students will all work for Annalise's dedicated associates: Frank Delfino (Charlie Weber), a local Philly boy done good and Bonnie Winterbottom (Liza Weil), a sweet, observant team player with a hidden edge.

How to Get Away with Murder is executive produced by Pete Nowalk, Shonda Rhimes and Betsy Beers who are all behind successful series such as Grey's Anatomy, Scandal and The West Wing. Our newest TV Obsession will have a double episodes premiere tonight so don't miss out!
