Gina Torres - "Standoff" Tv Series premieres tonight on Fox

Tuesday 5 September 2006, by Webmaster

Premieres: Tuesday, Sept. 5

Airs: Tuesdays at 9 p.m.

The Pitch: Professional crisis negotiators sitting in a tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g ...

VorschauMatt (Ron Livingston) and Emily (Rosemarie DeWitt) are having a workplace romance. Their personal feelings for each other might pose a bit of a problem though since they also happen to be partnered together as the FBI’s top-rnaked crisis negotiators. Can his instinct and her analysis keep things going in both areas of their lives?

What They Got Right: You can never go wrong with Livingston and DeWitt reminds us (in a good way) of Mary-Louise Parker. The strong supporting cast, led by Gina Torres and Michael Cudlitz, also hint at characters and stories we will be interested in as much as the central one.

What’s Oh, So Wrong: Since the whole premise of the show hinges on the lead characters being together, how many places are there for it to go?

Recommended If ...: You prefer to keep those pesky "Will they or won’t they?" questions limited to your own personal life.
