Pick of the Week: A "Murder"-ous Return
This week’s Pick is the return of a show that needs all the viewers it can get…
My Pick of the Week is “Women’s Murder Club.”
If you haven’t seen it, “Club” is about four women who work together to solve murders. Lindsay Boxer (Angie Harmon) is a homicide inspector, Claire Washburn (Paula Newsome) is a medical examiner, Jill Bernhardt (Laura Harris) is an assistant DA and Cindy Thomas (Aubrey Dollar) is a crime reporter. Jill often finds herself torn between two men, Claire must deal with her handicapped husband and Lindsay works for her ex-husband. The show is based on the novels by James Patterson.
While “Club” has been away it’s gone through some changes, including getting a new show runner. And now, it’s got three episodes to prove its worth or it won’t be back next year.
I have no idea how the behind-the-scenes changes will affect the show itself, but hopefully the show hasn’t changed its greatest strength--Angie Harmon, who is really good at kicking butt. I’d still love to see her give “24” a try…
“Women’s Murder Club” airs Tuesday at 10:02 p.m. on ABC…
