Glad you liked it, DX. It's on my DVR but I haven't watched yet. I wasn't sure whether to prioritize it. Pleased to hear it doesn't suck.

Procedurals 1: Anything You Say Can and Will Be Used Against You.
This thread is for procedural TV, shows where the primary idea is to figure out the case. [NAFDA]
There's just something about the new Magnum that I don't like. He just seems really smarmy from the commercials. I need to watch a few of the old eps to see if the "lovable rogue" that I remember from my childhood is really just a cocky asshole. Which I fear.
Selleck (and Magnum) had charisma by the bucket. You could even see it when he was playing Lance White on Rochford. Mini-Magnum doesn't charis at all. The supporting cast is good, though, especially Weeks.
Ugh. I am so tired of watching (or not watching) shows where the lead is trash, but the supporting case is good.
Ok, I'm only a quarter into season 6 of Elementary, but I am really enjoying Joan's suits.
The Lance White eps are amomg my faves.
Did anyone watch The Rookie?
I did! I liked it, but it was a pretty standard procedural. I was hoping for more.
I fell asleep watching The Rookie. Twice. I liked what I saw well enough, but obviously it didn't keep my attention. (To be fair, both attempts to watch happened too late at night).
I was hoping for more, too. I have a feeling this is just going to be a "Sure he's old, but look at that devilish charm" series.
I also don't know exactly how old NF. My apologies if he is 40 +/- a couple of years, but I'm not buying him as 40. On screen, he reads as late 40s/early 50s.
Did you watch it, Tom? What did you think?
He's 47 according to IMDB. His romantic lead is 30 also according to IMDB.
