The Karen Sisco character reminds me of Angelina Jolie. Robert Forster, who plays her father, has been around for a long time...very good character actor. I liked the bank robbing boyfriend, *Carl*...played by Patrick Dempsey. I believe he was a guest and won't have a permanent role. I think the show has a chance of making it. I enjoyed it. It would be nice if they brought in some of the sharp flashy graphics and colors that the old "Miami Vice" had.
The problem is: How many cop shows can we endure? How many more ER doctor and attorney shows can we watch without upchucking because they all look alike. Shows must know their limitations and leave before you want to block the series with your VCR. Good riddance, "Friends!" Take "Everybody Loves Raymond" and the same old bullshit and burn it.
I also like "The OC," because it has Peter Gallagher. The new show with Ryan O'Neal and Alicia Silverstone, "Miss Match," has possibilities. I missed the new Rob Lowe show which may be worth a peek. I am a big fan of Charlie Sheen and Jon Cryer. Hope they are given good scripts because they have a good chemistry. I like James Spader in "The Practice," and will definitely watch Sharon Stone's appearances with Spader, but I'm tired of the series.
