- Synopsis
- TV Series (2008). 8 Episodes. In the 1600's the Dutch take over Manhattan island and during a massacre of native people, John Amsterdam saves the life of a woman, being wounded in the act. The woman uses her power as a shaman to heal him, and also imparts on him the power of eternal youth and immortality - at least until he meets his true love and becomes wed to her. At this point he will age normally and die eventually. In modern New York, John is a police detective who has a few people close to him that know his secret (old friends, literally) and tends to run into people who think they remember him from their own past.

- Critics' reviews
-
-
"This tale of a lonely cop left behind by everyone--partners, friends, lovers, even the criminals he pursues--has a piercing melancholy that elevates it way above its fantasy trappings.2
-
"'New Amsterdam' is smart and far more original than most of the new series this season, which warrants it becoming a Monday habit."
-
"Easy to dismiss at first glance, the series does exhibit some possibilities in its second episode, though it's still a relatively uninspired time-killer for those of us with just one life to live."
-
"This relatively entertaining fantasy has one obvious viewership advantage over many of its strike-bound scripted competitors: new episodes, and not bad ones at that."
-
"The whole enterprise is very shoddy and predictable, and I can’t imagine that anyone involved did this for anything but a paycheck."
-
"Coster-Waldau paints a beguiling portrait of a brooding, conflicted, undeniably charismatic soul."
-
"The procedural stuff is mostly drab, but John's institutional memories of the Big Apple (dating back to when it was still a big jungle) make New Amsterdam more intriguing than it initially appears."
