sg_lab2 It was 9pm and I turned to ABC to watch Men In Trees. There was a basketball game still on, but it looked like it was almost over. So I kept it on the channel and then it went into over time. Next thing I knew it went into double over time.
Finally it was over at 9:35. Five minutes of commercials later the show starts. Only after a few minutes I realize it's not the beginning of the show. In fact, it's the last twenty minutes. I missed the first forty minutes of the episode. :(
It's about a New York police detective who is immortal. He became immortal in the 18th century after saving an indian woman.
He apparently has to find his soulmate to become mortal again. In the first episode he gets a new partner. A woman. He had a heartattack somehow and the doctor (a woman) who tried to save him is who he thinks may be his soulmate. The heartattack killed him and then he came back alive in the morgue.
There will probably be sexual tension between him and his partner. Frankly I wish his new partner was a guy. I want a Starsky and Hutch or a Due South. I'm tired of shows with a male and female as leads and there is sexual tension between them. I'm tired of ship. I want friendship. I want a buddy show.

Date: 2008-03-06 10:40 pm (UTC)The 4400 was a great show because of its two leads. A male and female who were partners and great friends, but never a hint of something romantic between them. She had a couple relationships and he had a couple relationships all separate from each other. It was great.
Right now Boston Legal is the best series for showing a good friendship between two men. It has more characters and other types of relationships as well.
I think the problem with New Amsterdam is that it has such a small cast that the ust is going to be so much in my face.
