I'm gonna re-watch cancelled-after-eight-episodes fox's New Amsterdam.

Quote (Wikipedia)
Premise and plot

John Amsterdam (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) is an NYPD homicide detective who is 400 years old, but has the appearance of a 35-year-old. He was a Dutch soldier in Manhattan in the year 1642 when he stepped in front of a sword to save the life of a Native American girl during a massacre of her tribe. The girl in turn rescued Amsterdam by weaving a spell that conferred immortality upon him. It was also prophesied that he would not age until he finds his one true love, and only then will he become whole and ready for mortality. Flashbacks in different episodes of the show reveal Amsterdam's centuries of life since, using many names, though usually retaining "John", marked by loss as his friends, lovers, children (63), and dogs gradually grow old and die. Amsterdam is a recovering alcoholic who regularly attends Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, having remained sober since 1965. In his lifetime he has joined the Army three times, in addition to the Coast Guard, Marines, and Navy. He stated that he never joined the Air Force because he "doesn't like heights". He has taught history at a university, served as a physician during the American Civil War, was a furniture maker at the turn of the 20th century, a portrait painter just before the outbreak of World War I, and by 1941 an attorney. At some point he attended Columbia University and served in the CIA. (See below for a detailed timeline.)

Amsterdam's quest to find his "true love" drives the series. But in each episode as a policeman he has crimes to solve, which he does using his deep and often personal knowledge of history, depicted as flashbacks. Though estranged from and unknown to most of his many descendants, except his 65-year-old son Omar, he tries to keep track of them and aids them when possible.

The title sequence is a time lapse series of images of the place where Amsterdam received his "gift", from the forests and Indian camps of the 17th century which evolves into modern Times Square in the city of New York.

I am going to be away from this forum for awhile. I have gotten very busy with two projects I am working on and this should keep my head down until the end of May.

@chrisdvanne

I actually liked New Amsterdam. There's been alot of good shows on FOX like Firefly and TSCC, and FOX like morons pull the plug, angers the viewers that like those shows and loses those fans. I'm one of them. After TSCC was pulled, I barely watched FOX.

Used to watch Syfy alot and the programming blocks they had for TSCC and other shows, like First Wave, Earth: Final Conflict, X-Files, Wolf Lake, Prey, The Sentinel, Highlander: The Series, Star Trek TNG, Enterprise, even the CBS vampire show Moonlight, and the list goes on on and on. Now we have wrestling and crappy low budget weak ripoffs they show every week.

So many sci-fi shows that i watched were cancelled in the recent years; you can add Invasion (ABC) and Surface (NBC); i watched Moonlight too and was sad when it was cancelled.
I didn't watched Syfy until recently; i watched Alphas and was very happy when the Summer Glau Wiki announced in the forum that Summer Glau would guest star in the show weeks before the news was online.

After seeing the GA episode and Summers super scene I realized that I desperately want more Summer material. Maybe I'll rewatch something which I haven't seen in a while though I wouldn't mind something new.

If only Summer would continue in GA or we got Scent or a longer guest spot like in The 4400 for example.

It doesn't mean that I wouldn't always want more Summer but with that ep I'm just in the mood of wanting more right now, lol biggrin

Out of curiosity, what Summer episode or movie do you prefer to watch when you are in a mood like this?


Summer Glau is so awesome, it isn't even funny!
Blood for the Blood God! Skulls for the Skull Throne!

Yeah, rewatching order always comes down to this: AFP -> Self Made Man-> Samson and Delilah-> Dollhouse Bennett episodes-> 4400 episodes-> Alphas biggrin

Mixing in Serenity or DHM if I feel like that( thus making difference between short and long rewatch orders) smile
