Jesse Stone: Innocents Lost to be aired on CBS, May 22nd

For fans of the late Robert B. Parker, his "Jesse Stone" novels, and the television series with Tom Selleck, the final TV movie, Jesse Stone: Innocents Lost, will air on CBS on Sunday night, May 22nd at 9:00PM (Correction--this won't be the final Jesse Stone movie--Tom Selleck is working on a scrip for a new one). It's been a long wait. I think it was actually made well over a year ago, maybe even two, and yet it's only now appearing on television for the first time.

For the fans of the novels, I have to say that Tom Selleck captures the character and personality of Jesse Stone perfectly. The series has been well acted by the all the regulars over the last five-to-six years, and I've always found each TV movie to be highly entertaining and thought provoking. I own all the previous movies on DVD. I'm also somewhat anxious to find out what will happen to Jesse and his police staff. Jesse was unemployed during the last movie. I thank Tom Selleck for making this series such a hit and for all the hard work he and his cast and crew have put into it.
