The Killing


            A psychotherapist , Paul (Gabriel Byrne), treats three new patients a season, two on Monday nights and a third on Tuesday when he, also, sees his own psychotherapist, Adele (Amy Ryan, new in season three replacing Diane Wiest from season 1-2). This is a change in format from season one when it was shown on five consecutive nights. The patients are varied ranging in age from elderly people to juveniles with family, career, romantic, and other life problems which are usually resolved by season's end.In season two, Paul (Byrne) wrestles with life changes arising from his divorce. His move from the family home in Maryland to Brooklyn, NY brings with it's own set of new problems. There he has started a practice with new patients working from an office in his apartment.Season three finds him with a new therapist, Adele (Amy Ryan) because his former therapist (Wiest) has closed the door on any new sessions and has written a book that Paul feels portrays him in a very demeaning way. A new issue has arisen in season three regarding his possible inheritance of the Parkinson's gene from his father as he believes he is exhibiting symptoms now. He also develops an attachment of sorts to Adele which she may or may not share. Paul dates a much younger woman, Wendy, but doesn't seem to have formed a strong bond with her. His teenage son, Max, has come to live with him in Brooklyn and Paul has difficulty communicating with him.In season three Paul struggles with his three new patients: Sunil (Irrfan Khan), Frances (Debra Winger), and Jesse (Dane DeHaan). Sunil has come from India to live with his son's family where he feels he has now lost his dignity. He and his daughter-in-law cannot get along and differ on most subjects. Frances (a famous actress) has a sister dying and she can't seem to cope with it, nor her own fears of developing the breast cancer that has killed her mother and now her sister. Jesse is an adopted teenager whose birth parents are trying to contact him. He has been in conflict with his adoptive parents as he questions his sexual identity.Paul has difficulty keeping a distance with his patients becoming very emotional about their situations. He tries to convey this to his therapist who seems cold and inflexible.

Berlin Station

Columbus


            Guy, an ambitious would-be screenwriter, works as an assistant to demanding boss Buddy Ackerman. Guy tries to cater to Buddy's ever-more capricious demands until he decides he's been pushed too far in what can best be described as an cynical if canny black comedy.

Treadstone

Dear Sidewalk


            Dwight Putnum [Roger Rose] has just asked Kendall Gordon [Kimberly Foster]
for the 10th time to marry him, but Kendall is still unwilling to commit. She has
this idea that the perfect man for her is still out there. Vampire Zachary Simms [Adam Ant]
has just awakened in his coffin from a 100 year sleep in the crypt under
Kendall's house and comes out through the secret door in her fireplace to
face the brave, new world. When the two meet, it isn't quite love at first
bite, but Zachary spends the next day in her bed anyway, which really
angers Dwight when he tries to put the make on Zachary, thinking that the
lump under the covers is Kendall.It doesn't take long before Kendall and Zachary become friends, and
Zachary tells her how he came to be a vampire. He was born in England in
1660 and moved to Boston in 1675. In 1688, he was bitten by a vampire
named Nerissa, and they lived together for 100 years before she suddenly
decided to run off with a Washington politician. Zachary pined for Nerissa
for the next 100 years and finally decided to sleep it off. Unfortunately,
he forgot to wake up until another 100 years had passed.And, oh, how the world has changed. Zachary is entranced by such
devices as refrigerators, electric lightbulbs, and cars that talk. Zachary
is also entranced by Kendall, and before long, they are a twosome. Zachary
decides to end his existence as a vampire and asks Kendall to help him in
'reviving his digestive system' so that he can eat human food. Before
long, Zachary is slurping down spaghetti and munching on pizza. When he
finds that he has a blood pressure, can go outside in the daytime, and
drinking blood makes him gag, he proclaims himself 'rehumanized.'
Everything is going great, until 1) Zachary lands a job with Dwight's
insurance firm, 2) Dwight hires Vinnie Helsting [Philip Bruns] to do a little detective
work on Zachary, and 3) Nerissa [Michelle Forbes] shows up wanting Zachary back.Zachary starts working the night shift in the data entry department.
One night he discovers $1,300,000 that has been moving from department to
department in small increments. Dwight rewards him for his find by making
him an executive vice president and giving him a company car. Within a
short time, Zachary is using his bloodthirsty skills to put the bite on
potential clients, proving that he can make a killing in the business.
Unfortunately, he's spending less and less time with Kendall and becoming
more and more of a yuppie. When Zachary suggests to the board of directors
a plan that will increase their profits 30% each year for 100 years, they
make him chief executive officer of the company, which effectively puts
Dwight out of a job.While Zachary is rapidly moving up the ladder, Helsting can't find
anything on him. No birth certificate, no credit cards, no paper trail, so
he begins tailing Zachary wherever he goes, taking photographs, and casing
the house Zachary shares with Kendall. One night, when no one is home,
Helsting enters the house, notices the secret door in the fireplace, and
discovers the crypt and Zachary's coffin. While there, he overhears
Zachary's message machine taking a phone call. 'Hello. I can't come to the
phone right now. I'm dead.' Then Nerissa comes on, warning Zachary to be
careful so that Dwight doesn't find out what Zachary really is. Helsting
puts two and two together and figures it out...Zachary is a vampire.It looks like Zachary is about to be defanged. Dwight wants his
business back. Kendall says Zachary was more human when he was a vampire
and wants him out of her life. Nerissa says that the only solution is to
'revamp' him, so she gets the process started by biting him on the neck.
Dwight takes back his business, setting up Zachary as a consultant with a
perpetual income that will make him rich for centuries. Kendall informs
Zachary that she is pregnant with his baby and agrees to allow him to
'vampirize' her when the baby is old enough to understand. Nerissa agrees
to become the baby's godmother and buy her pretty dresses or take her to
Mets nightgames. [Original Synopsis by bj_kuehl.]
