If you happen to’re studying this, somebody you already know watches a criminal offense present on CBS. You won’t bear in mind that individual watches the present, however numbers don’t lie. Exhibits like NCIS, CSI, Legal Minds, FBI, SWAT, Blue Bloods, and others have been a gold mine for the community and now its newest one is getting a little more bloody.
Deadline stories that CBS’s newest addition to its wild assortment of procedural crime shows is Van Helsing. Sure, everybody’s favourite vampire hunter is coming to CBS. This model, nonetheless, might be “a recent tackle the monster hunter Dr. Abraham Van Helsing, who makes use of his uniquely inquisitive thoughts working alongside his ex, relentless FBI particular agent Mina Harker, to resolve New York Metropolis’s most harrowing circumstances.”
Do these “harrowing circumstances” contain vampires and different monsters? They rattling properly higher! In any other case, why the heck make a Van Helsing present? Syfy had pretty solid success with the property from 2016 to 2021, in spite of everything. And who can overlook the 2004 Hugh Jackman film with Kate Beckinsale—apart from everybody, without end and all the time?
Nevertheless, this model, which apparently landed at CBS after a “hotly contested public sale,” has a confirmed pedigree. It’s government produced by Rob Doherty, who took an analogous strategy to Sherlock Holmes with CBS’s Elementary, and might be written by Jonathan Lee, who wrote a brand new Netflix and BBC collection known as Lockerbie starring Colin Firth.
I’ve by no means discovered any CBS crime present to be significantly fascinating however every one finds a barely new twist on a confirmed formulation. It definitely appears the community thinks Van Helsing, and all of the lore that comes with the character, might be that when once more. Do you agree?
