So I watched the premiere of that show New Amsterdam, without much in the way of high hopes, on the off chance that it would be one of those shows that would be kind of mediocre but inspire lots of really good fic. It's... probably not. It's basically Highlander: But He's A Cop. And he's really bitchy all the time, which I guess I'd be too if I'd had a death wish for the better part of 400 years, but... not that entertaining.

Sole redeeming feature: He has a dog named Thirty-Six. That's funny, y'all.

My roommate was just watching that!

I'm kind of hoping that his Gypsy curse Gypsy curse will make him stay immortal until he finds true love, at which point he will die on the spot, but I'm not hoping too hard tbqh.

See, *that* would be hilarious.

As would him moonily, stalkerily romancing the doctor lady who if apparently his Twu Wuv, and her reacting like any sane person and getting a restraining order.

Somehow, I doubt this is that show.

Sigh. Maybe we can hope for lots of period costume? Although if it's as bad as the 1600s costume was (that BEARD) I think I'm done.
