The Old Titans All Collapsed. Is the U.S. Next?
2008-05-18 16:22:00 More than 80 percent of Americans now say that we are on the wrong track, but many if not most still believe that the history of other nations is irrelevant — that the United States is unique, chosen by God. So did all the previous world economic powers: Rome, Spain, the Netherlands (in the maritime ...

FOX?s NEW AMSTERDAM Cancelled
2008-05-11 09:12:00 Michael Ausiello just announced that FOX has cancelled NEW AMSTERDAM.

New Amsterdam Bows: Lessons in Cons and Backsides
2008-04-15 04:18:00 New Amsterdam gave its final bow tonight - of the season, maybe of all time - with a line that it is destined to become classic, when John says to his annoying boss Callie (played by Susan Misner) "I won't kiss your ass - which isn't that great, by the way. The way you twitch it around, you'd think it was one of the seven wonders of the modern world."Well, it's looked ok to me, and Callie also gets creds for asking John at the end of the episode if he really meant this line, part of the little act the detectives put on to nab the bad guy (actually, a bad woman).We don't get to see John's answer, but we did get a fine final episode, in which the current police and the past part of John in historical New York are finally meshing pretty well. Con artists are the common thread, in the 1920s and the 2008 parts, and of course conning most of the people around him is just what John has been doing his whole 400-year life.Not to stretch this metaphor too far, but tantalizing the tel...

NEW AMSTERDAM Season Finale - ?Love Hurts? (S1E08) Pictures

New Amsterdam 7: What Kept John from Dying?
2008-04-10 06:05:00 Next to last New Amsterdam on Monday - at least, for this season, and no one is saying at this point if it there will be another. This hour moved the story forward on one crucial point:Apparently Dr. Sara is not the one for John. He's shot (again) at point blank range, comes close to dying, but survives. The implication is the attack would have killed a mortal man. Were Sara the one, and this reduced John to mortality, as per the original prophecy, he should have died.Reasons for John surviving, if Sara indeed was the one, and John was mortal, could only be if the damage done to him by the gun was not that serious. That would be a rather weak move for the story, so I'm assuming that's not the case.Another possibility - especially given the other main story in Episode 7 - is that John may be slowly dying from the lead in his body. This is what happened to John's prior partner. He was shot, survived, but eventually died of long-range complications.But I'm betting that wha...

New Amsterdam 6: The DNA of Art
2008-04-01 05:35:00 Tonight's New Amsterdam - Episode 6 - started out great: John is called in on a case, and finds the victim looking just like his son - John's son from 1913, in his late teens.Now, we know that time travel is not one of the ingredients of this series, so the deceased could not be John's son who literally traveled from then to now.One possibility might have been that John's son somehow inherited part or all of John's immortality - and lived, not aging a day, from 1913 until now, only to die riddled by bullets. Perhaps John's son had found his true love, the one who would set him free from his immortality.Instead, the story took a more tame but still intriguing turn: this was a descendant of John's son who just happened to look like John's son. So we get get a nice episode tonight about another one of the many branches of John's family tree.Along the way, we get some good thoughts about the immortality of art - John's a painter in 1913 - and some fine scenes in which John...

New Amsterdam 5: Meets Mad Men
2008-03-25 04:46:00 Interesting, mixed-bag fifth episode of New Amsterdam tonight...On the one hand ... It was good to see John telling Omar, a young jazzman in the 1960s, John's whole story of immortality. It's not completely clear why Omar would have believed such a fantastic tale, though he is aware that his father doesn't seem to be aging, but that's ok ... we can find out later, in a subsequent episode, how Omar comes to fully accept his father's true nature. In the meantime, the 1960s ambience was fine ... making tonight a sort of New Amsterdam takes a page from Mad Men, black bow-ties, white shirts, and all.Meanwhile, in 2008, John's new relationship with Sara is already in danger - she, understandably, doesn't believe much of what John tells her of his past. At the end of the episode, John starts telling her the truth, and she walks away. Unlike Omar, she's not John's flesh and blood, has no memory of John never aging.... And a Google search she performs (it's amazing how quickly...

New Amsterdam 4: Poetry and Parenthesis
2008-03-18 03:23:00 One of the things I really like about New Amsterdam is the way that poetry weaves through almost every episode ... Omar Khayyam, Walt Whitman, and, tonight, John quotes the famous parenthesis line from e. e. cummings, "life's not a paragraph. And death I think is no parenthesis." Hey, when was the last time you heard cummings quoted (he spelled his name in small letters) in a prime time show on Fox...John quotes this line as he and Sara walk in the New York evening, and draw ever closer. The line, of course, has an especially profound meaning for John, which Sara doesn't know. John's life, going on four centuries, is surely not a paragraph. It's an epic. And close calls with death have not only been no parenthesis, but barely a dot on John's page.John's been struck by swords, accidents, and gunshot dots, of which we saw one tonight. Back in the Bronx in 1813, John challenges his arrogant aristocratic boss to a duel. The boss takes what he pleases with women, including i...

New Amsterdam: Old Theme, Old Twists - SendMeRSS
2008-03-12 16:26:00 New Amsterdam: Old Theme, Old TwistsJohn Amsterdam has a problem. He's immortal, and like all immortals, he wants to have a finite life span while the rest of us mortals would all like to live forever. Did I mention the immortal is immortal? As New Amsterdam, the new series on Fox TV starts, we are rushed through a number of explanations of the character's background: He's been sober since the mid 1960's, he gets a new partner, he's had a lot of cop partners, he's had a lot of girlfriends, (In case we don't get the immortality thing) etc., etc. Early in the episode, while we watch John (played by Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) chase down a "perp", he drops to the ground from what looks like a heart attack and we get treated to one of the many flashbacks shown throughout the show. These let us see different aspects of when the shaman put the immortal whammy on him to repay him as a gift for protecting her from an attack back in the Dutch colonists days. His buddy, a jazz club owne...

Today’s interview is no different – Alexie Gilmore, from FOX’s intriguing NEW AMSTERDAM, had a few minutes to chat with me about her character and the show. I had the opportunity to watch the first two episodes of the show, and I’m completely drawn in! Alexie Gilmore: Oh good, it gets juicier and juicier. We don’t get to see your character much in the beginning, but obviously we’ll see more as it goes. Yeah, by the third episode, he finally finds me. So it’s interesting to see how that all plays out. Basically, the last time I saw him, he was dead so he has a lot of explaining to do. ?When you first heard about the character of Sara, why did you want to play her?

The Second New Amsterdam?
2007-06-14 05:54:00 Legislation has been introduced in Mexico City to make prostitution legal. To protect sex workers, claims its proponent. The city’s already given the green light to gay unions and legal abortion, boasts urban beaches, and has planned the wireless cloud. What’s next – marijuana bars? Is the D.F. destined to become the Amsterdam of North America? Last week a local restaurateur told me that he’d sold his establishment in the D.F. after patronage fell, because people there were afraid to go out at night there. Relocating to Morelia, he remarked that this place is safe enough, but people just don’t go out at night here. We spend our time in Morelia watching what’s happening in the D.F., shaking our heads like Midwestern provincials, saying “Not in our city.” But we’re really not Mexican Gothic. You won't find 18,000 people disrobing for Spencer Tunick at the Plaza de Armas. Most of...
