Amsterdam is the name of a detective who lives in New York.

(nice play on words re: NY's former name, New Amsterdam)

He's lived there 400 years, through various professions. Don't know why he can't die (evidently missed a line or two). According to an Indian shaman who saved his life back in the 1600s, there is a true love he's supposed to find first and evidently she is there now. (I thought at first the same actress played the Indian and the current one but guess not.)

Anyway, cute clues throughout that he's lived before like saying in AA meeting that he's been sober xxxxx days which would put it back in the 1960s even though he's young or him knowing a club used to be a speakeasy. Also, neat photos shown of NY throughout the years. He's also evidently an artistic carpenter whose furniture brings astounding sums except everyone thinks he died a long time ago and a friend of his sells them as tables, etc. that just turned up in estates even though they were just finished in the basement. The friend owns Omar's bar and knows that he's lived so long. Don't know where the stories will go but cute for now. Here another episode is Thursday. Not sure when the regular night will be. It's on FOX.
