I think he was a cop in New Amsterdam. I thought he was a cop in Forever, too; maybe I'll watch it since he's an ME. I dunno; I think I've been over "immortal person blends into modern society, holds high level position despite lack of proper documents" for a while now.
I caught her on a park bench, making out with a *chaos* demon! Have you ever seen a chaos demon? They're all slime and antlers.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I loved New Amsterdam. This definitely has some similarities - it made me think of it too.
eta: He does have documents - though "proper" would be a loose term. They keep making references to his degree from Guam, I think it was.

I never watched New Amsterdam.

I know it was only one episode, but I really enjoyed it. The side characters were integral to the plot resolution, a couple of tropes are being subverted, and the central mystery of why he's still alive is a complete mystery. I probably would never have watched it if it did come on after Agents of Shield, but I don't mind hanging in there after Agents is done.
But I'd appreciate a bigger break between the two. I need a bathroom/snack break.

My only problem is that every time they mention his name I get earwormed with "the lot it fell first upon Henry Morgan, the youngest of the three" ... which isn't too bad, but since I can't sing and don't remember anything after that verse, is annoying.

Hm, enough of you are enjoying Forever to make me think about giving it a watch. Like I need more TV, but I like whatshisname who will probably always be SMG's husband from that twin show to me. And I liked New Amsterdam

I think it was one of those one word titles? Not Revenge, not Scandal...anyway, I liked it well enough, but I loved the recaps that one of the Fug Girls used to do. So funny.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I think I watched the first one or two of that.
