New Amsterdam


Fox premiered a new series tonight about the immortal NYPD agent John Amsterdam. The series is set in New York City and is called New Amsterdam.


In 1642, JOHN AMSTERDAM, then a Dutch soldier in the colony of New Amsterdam – later to become New York City -- stepped in front of a sword to save the life of a Native American girl during a massacre of her indigenous tribe. The girl in turn rescued Amsterdam, weaving an ancient spell that conferred immortality upon him. Amsterdam will not age, she told him, until he finds his one true love. Only then will he become whole and ready for mortality.


Let me guess... John will find his sweetheart, and then run into trouble.
