Pilot Episode. The Scarface Mob.
Based on Elliot Ness book the untouchables, this follows him and his teams efforts to bring town Al Capone. It's similar but different in some ways too the movie, it's less violent and we don't have unhinged hitman there is no Irish beat cop with a Scottish accent , but we do have a ex-con whom is part of the team and is quite similar too the Connery character and is only member of the team that dies. Both different as I said but both this and the film are equally enjoyable.
We have shootouts, bad men and dirty women . Having not read the book it would be interesting too know which is closer to it.
ER. Pilot
We follow the lives of the doctors and nurses of county general hospital , which good guy Mark Greene, womanizing and shallow Doug Ross who has a hart of gold, arrogant surgeon Peter Benton, nurse Carol Hathaway and fresh faces newbie John Carter.
Has aged well and was a program ahead of its time the has a effect on shows that have followed.
The show that shot George Clooney too super stardom.
NYPD Blue season one.
Just like ER which aired a year later, this is another show that was ahead of its time and influenced later shows.
Here we follow the officers of the 15th precinct which include John Kelly, alcoholic Andy Sipowicz and Captian Fancy as they solve case and get involved in there lives. It deals with many disturbing events but the most disturbing is seeing Sipowicz fat ass!
