On Sunday a new TV show started up that holds a lot of promise and exciting adventure. It's called The Librarians and stars Noah Wyle as Flynn Carsen {the original Librarian}, Rebecca Romijn as Eve Baird, John Kim as Ezekiel Jones {what a funny name}, Christian Kane as Jake Stone, Lindy Booth as Cassandra Cillian, and John Larroquette as Jenkins.
Flynn Carsen started out as a novice Librarian in the three Librarian movies {which they conveniently showed before the show started so I was able to introduce them to my husband who thought that Kate Beckett from Castle was super cute in the third movie with her accent} and learned about stuff the hard way. Now he's a harden expert with a slight tilt toward loony. The library hires Eve Baird, a colonel, to be the new guardian - only problem is that Flynn doesn't want a guardian. However, he soon figures out that there may be a need for her after all when someone starts killing off possible librarian candidates. Racing to the rescue, the pair soon has Cassandra {a girl with a fantastic memory but also a deadly tumor}, Jake Stone {an art historian? I missed his special ability but love his sense of humor}, and Ezekiel Jones who is a master thief. The good guys just got reinforcements and Flynn decides to start changing the rules; the newbies are now librarians-in-training and a disgruntled Jenkins gets to train them.
Oh goody, this is gonna be fun! I already like Stone and Baird, but I don't like Cassandra very much. And Flynn, as my husband pointed out, is very much a similar character to the Doctor from Doctor Who - all smart, funny and a little loopy. *winks*
