New Amsterdam

This is a great series, that ran for only 9 episodes.  I hope it comes back in the fall.

At first, i didnt want to watch it, because I thought it would be too much of a Highlander rip off.  But its not.  This man may be 400 years old, and immortal, but he is not Duncan MacLeod.

this show is original and intelligent.  I really hope they bring it back.  But those two things may actually keep it from coming back.

I hadn't realized it was only a nine episode run .... I do hope they decide to make more ... and you're right, it doesn't resemble Highlander in any way ... the premise for this one is rather fresh  ... and I like the lead, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau  .... he's suits the role wonderfully

I really liked the show and hope to see more, but I've what read makes it sound like it's probably not coming back. Frown

that maybe it was a victim of the writers strike...that they only got 9 done before they shut down.

I reeeely hope they come back

I liked this show too. But I for some reason don't like the doctor he thinks is his one true love. I like his partner better and think she'd be ebtter suited to Amsterdam

I didn't like Sarah either, and yeah, if it comes back I hope "the one" is someone else.

crazy abut her either...but she is ok.

Well see....maybe she will be able to believe him when he says he is 400 years old.

I like the way he jokes about his age, during casual conversation
