Ian McShane is, at least, very equipped to handle the dense and formal language, thanks to Deadwood. One thing that may cripple Kings is that he has so much presence that most of the other actors may not be able to stand toe-to-toe with him. I should probably Netflix Lovejoy.

The point of The Mentalist is the fact that Simon Baker's grin makes me slide off the sofa. I thought everybody knew that! It was so nice of them to make a tv show targeted that narrowly.
