One week after the end of NYPD Blue, a series I never watched, Steven Bochco is back with Blind Justice: the story of hero New York cop Jim Dunbar (Ron Eldard) blinded when his partner freezes up during a shootout.
Rather than retire early with a full pension, Dunbar taints his hero status by suing the Department to get his old job back. Having the tremendous will to remain competent in his now-sightless world, Jim has neglected friends and relationships along the way.
Like the adventures of Matt Murdock/Daredevil, Blind Justice promises to deal with the everyday life of the disabled as well as the benefits heightened senses can bring to crimefighting. Also like Murdock, actor Eldard is a New York guy and former boxer, lending the show authenticity.
Lots for me to watch on Tuesday nights:
8PM CBS NCIS
9PM FOX House
10PM ABC Blind Justice

I'll have to check that show out. I've been a fan of Eldard since he played Detective Wade Preston in Bakersfield PD (a show that got cancelled way too soon).
