I moved on to good old Japanese drama - Galileo. If you havent catch on to this, you should jump onto the wagon immediately. At least the script writer DELIVERS what they are being paid for, a PLOT.
No matter that some may seem a little far fetched and convenient, its still a show that tickles your brain - like how does a guy die from sudden fire combustion on his head, or how a boy whose hindered window view can see a red car opposite the river. Its about a professor who doesnt believe in supernatural and helping the police solve the most "unseemingly" incidents (crime) with scientific explaination. I am up to watching episode 2 and I am glued! Its prob at episode 7 or 8 now in Japan.
[Review at end series ]
The female police is not brainless but definitely and not exactly sherlock holmes. She turns to the professor for every case that is unsolvable / unexplainable by "common" logic. As each case gets increasingly biazzare, the relationship between the 2 also evolves for the better. While the story does not explicity say they do not exactly fall in love, they progressed to a somewhat co-dependant and caring relationship where the final episodes build up to where he had to save her from a possible horrible death. Towards the end of the drama series, The professor while solving a mysterious "mask of death" case, is confronted by his past about his ex-professor who has his own set of philosophy about this world...
Its good, and definitely worth my hour a week.
