The Resident

Det. Frank Kohanek keeps a watchful eye on Julian Luna, the godfather of five vampire clans that inhabit San Francisco in a dark melodrama from Aaron Spelling. These bloodsuckers, however, don't sleep in coffins or speak with Transylvanian accents. Here, the undead live among humans and morph into wolves, and their actions are not for the squeamish.

A white teenager is killed by a black cop during a police shooting, leading an expert investigator and special prosecutor to examine the case and grapple with media attention, public debate and the social unrest.

A riveting drama about a vile junior VP at a conglomerate who'll do just about anything to move up the ranks. Having a sociopath, however charismatic, as its lead character made for intriguing TV, but too few viewers found it entertaining, and the series was canceled after four episodes.

Filmed on-location in London, the FOX cop series Keen Eddie starred Mark Valley as Eddie Arlette, a New York City police detective. Disgraced and nearly dismissed after a spectacularly botched drug bust, Eddie was ordered to transfer to London's Scotland Yard so that he might rebuild his career from the ground up. Despite a daunting series of setbacks and blunders, Eddie managed to do his duty, with both himself and his Scotland Yard colleagues learning a lot more about one another's countries and cultures than they ever imagined. Sienna Miller co-starred as Eddie's reluctant flatmate, Fiona Bickerton. Others in the cast included Colin Salmon as Eddie's extremely judgmental Yard superior Supt. Johnson; Julian Rhind-Tutt as Eddie's deceptively prim-and-proper partner, Rudy (who, among other things, pretended to by married so he could attend sub-rosa wife-swapping parties); and a pair of animal regulars, Eddie's dog, Pete, and Fiona's cat, Duchess. Originally slated to debut in January 2003, Keen Eddie was shelved until June of that same year, reportedly to allow the producers to transform what had begun as a straight dramatic-action series into a semi-comedy.

A whodunit with humor breaks down the fourth wall as wisecracking Det. Marshak solves crimes along with the at-home viewer, whom he treats as a rookie partner.
