It would certainly be different from Helen Mirren's interpretation--though she would rock in a vampire show.
Spike: Ladies. Come on in. Plenty of blood in the fridge, don't be shy. Dawn: You mean like, real blood? Spike: What do you think? Dawn: Mostly I think, 'Eew!'

Belatated addition to Closer conversation. Given the comment that the chief is essentially a serial killer, and the additional comment that she only kills bad guys: so the chief is really Dexter?

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman
Saw a preview for Prime Suspect for this fall--am I right in thinking they're importing the stellar British show?--and I'm puzzled by how they're dressing the lead. She always has a scarf or a high necked shirt of some sort around her throat. Is it a fashion I haven't noticed yet, or does the actress not like her neck, or is it supposed to mean something? It was distracting.
I saw a preview and was not amused (in the British sense). Jane Tennyson is awesome, and the bit I saw was not awesome, it was typical American brashness. I will watch it, because I love both Maria Bello and Prime Suspect, but I have very low expectations.

Yeah, this Jane looks more like the typical "hard-nosed bitch trying to get ahead in a man's game" thing. The guy she's riding with even says "Have you ever been afraid that someone was going to drop a house on you?" Not encouraging.

I heard the show is good, but nothing like PS on BBC. So I'm willing to give it a chance.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
I saw a commercial for the new Prime Suspect in the theater. Eh. It just reminded me I need to Netflix the original series.

The critic reviews have been pretty positive, though they note it's not like a clone of the original show.

Okay, that said, I just saw a commercial for Prime Suspect at the movie theater, and the commercial was terrible.
