Posted July 28, 201014 yr Has anyone on Buzzjack seen TNT's drama Rizzoli and Isles? I was turned onto the show when we saw a sneak peak when the marketing company I work for picked up the campaign. The show is about best friends who grew up on opposite sides of the economic spectrum. Boston detective Jane Rizzoli (Angie Harmon) and medical examiner Maura Isles (Sasha Alexander) often find themselves working together as both use their brilliant minds and expertise to figure out the “who done it” as well as the “how done it” of Boston’s most complex cases. I love that despite their many differences, Jane and Maura remain best friends, with a quirky and supportive relationship. Find out more about the two smart, strong, competent women at the Rizzoli and Isles site.
July 28, 201014 yr LOL spam. I'm really enjoying the show so far though. It's not the most original but both leads are properly charismatic (especially Isles who is like a walking encylopedia of knowledge). But I should point out that Rizzoli and Isles aren't best friends - they're colleagues who becomes friends and as of the start of the season they're still getting to know one another.
July 28, 201014 yr Hart Hanson and co must be feeling very flattered right about now, their first imitator. :wub: Major lol it's on TNT tho, seeing as they show $h!t loads of Bones reruns.
July 29, 201014 yr No it was not a diss, and i haven't seen it although i will look it up seeing as it sounds like a Bones rip off and i quite obvious arse rape that show to death. I just found it a bit lol that the first show i've come across to be remarkably similar to Bones is on the Cable network that syndicates the show :lol: No negativity intended, just a funny for me observation
July 29, 201014 yr LOL spam. I know, it happens so much around here, but the link is removed now.

September 7, 201014 yr This US show is about the detective and the medical examiner catching criminals working in a team. http://proc.com.ua/uploads/posts/2010-07/1279403827_rizzoli_and_isles.jpg Phil will love it :kink: btw R&I has average ratings of 7 million so far each episode (s01e09 was just aired) which is huge for a cable show!
September 7, 201014 yr There's already a topic dear, made by musicplayer! Phil thinks it sounds like a crappy Bones rip-off. I love it.

Are you sure? http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=115226 :kink: Anyway, could some mod please merge these two then? ---- This may be a Bones rip-off but it's quite good for a cable TV show to gather 7 freaking million people each episode?!

September 7, 201014 yr I never said it was a crappy Bones rip-off, just that it sounded like a Bones rip-off. I'll be adding this to the download pile. I'm a sucker for Crime shows like Bones and CSI
September 26, 201014 yr I love Rizzoli & Isles. But it would be just marketed as a modern Cagney & Lacey to the UK viewers. Its far better in my opinion.
April 12, 201114 yr I've FINALLY got round to downloading this. The third ep has far too many snakes for my liking. I was most correct, this is very clearly influenced by Bones. It is however rather bloody brilliant. The two leads work together extremely well and they have great chemistry. And god i love Sasha Alexander. :wub: Maura Isles is such a genius character. She has all the best qualities of Dr Brennan. She makes me LOL many many many times per episodes. I'm actually in love. Words can not describe how much i ADORE Maura Isles.
April 12, 201114 yr I think Rizzoli and Isles are based on the Tess Geritson novels, as both characters are in the books. And I believe Angie Harmon is the daughter of Mark Harmon from NCIS
April 12, 201114 yr I've still got a couple of eps left to watch but I'm really enjoying it too. I do however have a couple of slight issues with the tone... they're struggling to get it quite right in parts and it can be overly-lightweight. And I think Jane and Maura talk about shoes in work a little too much. But yeah it's very enjoyable and Maura is great. Hot stuff too.

And I believe Angie Harmon is the daughter of Mark Harmon from NCIS Yes they are characters in a book, that doesn't remove the Bones feeling to the show given that the books Bones are based on pre-date the R&I books. I've still got a couple of eps left to watch but I'm really enjoying it too.

And I think Jane and Maura talk about shoes in work a little too much. But yeah it's very enjoyable and Maura is great. Hot stuff too. The 3 episodes i've seen so far feel just right, but then again i'm very used to Bones. So Maura flirting over the body in Ep2 was hilarious for me. I'm loving their relationship and the way it's developing outside of work. Maura's social awkwardness is endearing for me.
April 13, 201114 yr I've now watched all of Season 1. It ends on a f***ing cliff hanger. I'm gonna kill someone, they can't just leave it like that!
