Rizzoli & Isles

| 5 Comments

Not sure what to make of Rizzoli & Isles. It's a female buddy show, I suppose. Sasha Alexander, who plays Isles, is a brainy, well-to-do, eager beaver do-gooder medical examiner. Angie Harmon is Rizzoli. She's a cop from a cop family. She's working class and kinda crude but she cleans up nice. The show has resorted to proving that in at least two episodes. It's not much of a transformation. She's fairly gorgeous in just about anything. It tries but Rizzoli and Isles is light summer fare and not much more. Borderline CME. It's set in Boston and has cool Irish theme music, though.

Quote of the Day
Mailman
Stay away from my door
Got too many bills
I don't need no more
I don't know what I'm gonna do
But while I'm deciding
To save my soul
I'm going to find me a hole to hide in
Foghat, A Hole To Hide In

Blog of the day is here.

Sasha Alexander... Isn't Sasha Russian for Alexander? Not that it means anything, it's just that when I saw the name my mind sort of locked and it took me a moment to sort out what it was trying to decipher. I guessing it's a stage name.

I've not seen the show yet, though I thought it looked interesting in the adds. I'm so far behind on my DVRed Leverage watching I might have to pass on it.

When I first saw it advertised, the first thing I thought of was Cagney and Lacy, which it's not. I tried to watch it a couple times, but I can't get past the memory of Angie Harmon at the National Republican Convention two or six years ago. I don't want to know these personal details about our actors and actresses.

Soon as you said Boston and cool Irish theme song I thought betcha it's The Dropkick Murpheys!

And it was :)
