Juonikuvaukset(1)
Doctor Henry Morgan (Ioan Gruffudd), New York City's star medical examiner, has a secret. He doesn't just study the dead to solve criminal cases, he does it to solve the mystery that has eluded him for 200 years—the answer to his own inexplicable immortality. (jakelijan virallinen teksti)

Initially, I did not want to get into this show because when I got familiar with the plot outline, I decided I had quite enough of the Mentalists, Sherlocks, and similar intellectuals lately. When I saw the new Scorpion TV series pilot, which is full of intellectuals and which I found almost unbearable at times, I was worried that this would be very similar. The main male protagonist was supposed to be immortal, which was suspicious (I thought: "Please, not another vampire!"). Furthermore, when I looked into it on FilmBooster, I found only some women admiringly singing their praises of the main male protagonist, whom I only knew from Fantastic Four, and I thought he was quite good in that, although I did not get what he had such a problem with. However, I did not get discouraged and started watching this show and I found that although my fears were realized and to some extent, it resembles Sherlock and even The Mentalist. I found it entertaining practically from the moment Henry uttered his first lines with that incredibly impressive accent. It got even better when the main villain spoke for the first time. I also have to join in with praising of Ioan Gruffudd, because his performance and portrayal of the main male protagonist make this TV series stand out (and which made me want to find out more about the actor, so I watched the whole Hornblower series, for example). On the plus side, I would add that this show also has an interesting storyline, sometimes very interesting cases, and an interesting relationship between the main male protagonist and his "son" Abraham, which sometimes even manages to gladden the viewer's heart. As far as the negative aspects are concerned, the main drawback here is Henry's "partner". The girl is completely nondescript that it is almost scary she is the main female protagonist. At times she even makes me wonder how someone like that could be a policewoman and whether she would be able to solve anything on her own. Of course, this is a TV series, and so it includes some episodes that are not so good, although that is to be expected. All in all, I am enjoying this TV series, and although I can see that it resembles some other TV shows, the important thing is that the execution is great, so the overall rating is above average.
