New Amsterdam

Like an Alfred Hitchcock movie, I was left unsure if this series was ended. I was left wanting more and I still keep checking to see if it has restarted.

The idea and story line was great for entertainment and of course, fantasy. Many of us like the taste of immortality even though we seem scared to take the necessary measure to achieve this state.

 

New Amsterdam

New York City detective John Amsterdam

Effectively carries out his work while also his own scam

When fatally injured back in 1642

A Native American girl’s spell cured but made him immortal too 

Many of his family and friends have aged and died

So John for years lived dangerously, everything he tried 

Though nothing could’ve helped him, he’d just wake up again

Earth was a living hell and not what was in the bargain

Remembering the girl’s words he worked out that he

Didn’t have to live this way for all eternity

A kiss from the lips of his true love would break the spell

Many lips John now kiss to escape his earthly hell
