国务卿女士 第三季

　　这部昔日的CBS旗舰剧集已经失去了一个好汉（Charlie Sheen被开除，Charlie Harper也随之死亡），现在又将失去半个好汉——因为种种原因（如果你相信CBS官方所说的「他要读大学」那你就太天真了），Angus T. Jones不再是该剧的常规演员，他的名字也将从片头字幕中彻底抹除。

　　Detective Inspector John Rebus is a hard drinking, unkempt, womanizing police officer whose job is his whole life. He is the most senior and most experienced DI at his station. He has a mysterious past that his partner DS Siobhan Clarke learns about from time to time through various comments Rebus makes. She is a young woman who wants to succeed, but does not have much of a personal life. She feels being paired with Rebus jeopardizes her career because of his unorthodox methods, but she is also fascinated by the man and is extremely loyal. DI Rebus' boss is Chief Superintendent Templar, a woman who was one of Rebus' lovers in a distant past. Their relationship is now one where they barely tolerate each other.
