Been trawling through the sudden influx of "fall trailers" that have been flooding the internet for the last week or so (American TV, that is. I don't think they've told us anything about British TV for the autumn yet). All the big American networks have started trailering autumn TV already, which suggests the sort of desperation that they probably shouldn't be admitting to. But anyway - new TV! Except it's all awful. All of it. Actually, there's a sci fi thriller starring Halle Berry and Goran Višnjić that might be worth a go, purely because it's sci fi, and stars Halle Berry and Goran Višnjić. The plot's probably irrelevant. Everything else is rubbish, though - or so I thought. And then I found this:
It's Ioan Gruffudd as an immortal coroner, investigating murders in New York. Every time he dies, he wakes up naked in the Hudson River. I don't know about you, but my life has been seriously diminished by the sad lack of naked, immortal murder detectives. It's the most ridiculous thing I've seen in ages, and I've completely fallen in love with it. Now of course I have to wait until the end of the year to see it, and it'll probably only be axed anyway, because I like it. Also because it's about a naked, immortal murder detective, which is patently insane. Life is cruel. Anyway, I thought I'd share the trailer with you, because I'm kind that way. Naked immortal detectives! Also, Judd Hirsch! I haven't seen him in years, and he hasn't changed at all, which suggests that he might actually be immortal for real. But not naked, at least in the trailer.
This is going to be the best thing about 2014, seriously. Or probably not, but whatever.
