"How to Get Away With Murder" is all set to air on Sept 25 at 10 PM on ABC. The show is about a criminal defence lawyer and college professor teaching her students the practical aspects of practicing the law. The show promises to be a fast paced legal thriller.

"How to Get Away With Murder" episode 1 will have a young student, Wes Gibbins, enter the law school at Middleton University, not knowing what to expect. He is filled with excitement for his first day and starts to make some friends, who try to warn him to be prepared.

The protagonist of the show, Professor Annalise Keating enters the room to take the class. The role is played by Viola Davis. She explains what her class, on criminal law, is all about. She is seen to be a strict to the point professor who expects the best from her students.

Professor Keating has a more practical approach to teaching and does not waste time with the theory of the law but is focussed on the actual practice. She will be choosing four students to work for her in her firm and will challenge the students to come up with the best defence for some of the most difficult cases handled by her firm. The fierce competition will then begin.

There are three steps to saving the client, according to Keating, the first step is to discredit the witness, the second step is to find another suspect and make it plausible that he may be the real perpetrator of the crime and finally bury the evidence.

The trailer shows the new student, Wes Gibbins, confronting his professor about getting a witness to lie on the stand. The lines of what is legal and moral start to get blurred for some of the students who are out to get a better grade. Some of the students are seen burning a dead body to hide the DNA evidence in the trailer.

The creators of popular TV shows "Grey's Anatomy" and "Scandal" are involved in this project. This has got some of the fans of the two popular shows excited about the prospects of "How to Get Away With Murder." Will the show live up to the expectations?
