I immediately knew that the husband/victim wasn't going to die right away, because he was William Mapother.

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]
And was that Robyn Lively playing the wife? Seems like just yesterday she was playing teenagers.
And it never fails to amaze me how William Mapother looks like a cross between Captain Tightpants and William Fichtner
One thing that's making me happy this season is the three Brits (they ARE Brits, aren't they?) playing in procedural-type series, injecting their own sense of humor/mischief - Simon Baker in The Mentalist, Rufus Sewell in The Eleventh Hour, and Damien Lewis in Life.
Well, Simon's an Aussie. Which brings with it its own twisted sense of humor.
and Jason O'Mara is Irish.
Right.
Who else: Anna Torv (sp?) from Fringe is Australian - as are Anthony LaPaglia and Poppy Montgomery from Without a Trace.
Oops. Doublepost.
and Jason O'Mara is Irish.
He just gets yummier.
Unlike some of the rest of y'alls, I like him as Sam. I like John Simm, too, but I think JO'M is just different, not worse.
Harvey Keitel, on the other hand, Is No Phillip Glenister. Can't put my finger on exactly what's wrong with his performance, but whatever it is, it's Really Wrong.
Keitel is what killed the show for me. Can Not Take The Over Acting.
Gene should dwarf Sam. Keitel, despite his intensity, in no way dwarfs Jason O'Mara.
And I still don't like their putting the show in New York. It's not an equivalent to Manchester.
