Rosewood is the latest medical procedural meets cop procedural, this one coming from FOX. With Morris Chestnut and Lorraine Toussaint, I’m already sold. Check out the synopsis and see if it’s something you’d like. It will be paired with Empire, so you may find your Wednesday night schedules set.

Synopsis:

Set against the vibrant backdrop of one of the world’s hottest cities – Miami – new medical procedural from executive producer Todd Harthan , Rosewood is the story of Dr. Beaumont Rosewood, Jr., the city’s top private pathologist. Brilliant, cool with tons of charisma, Rosewood teams up with the tough-as-nails Detective Annalise Villa to uncover clues no one else sees and help the Miami PD solve the city’s most challenging cases. While she’s impressed by his incredible abilities, his constant optimism is more annoying than it is infectious. But somehow, week-to-week, this unlikely tag team will solve many crimes together.

Joining Rosewood in his practice are his sister and “toxicology queen,” Pippy and DNA specialist Tara Milly Izikoff aka TMI, who is Pippy’s fiancée. Rosewood’s mom, Donna, is on the cusp of some major life changes that will affect her children profoundly. A matriarch with a lot of strong opinions, Shirley holds family gatherings sacred and makes Rosewood’s love life a regular topic of conversation. Rounding out the cast is Miami PD’s Captain Ira Hornstock who is a great team leader but is terrible at managing his own life. Hornstock and Rosewood have a complicated relationship: while he can’t stand Rosewood’s big personality and sunny disposition, he acknowledges Rosewood’s stellar contributions to the department.

Plagued with his own set of medical ailments, Rosewood believes that every moment of life, no matter how small, should be embraced and lived to the fullest. This heightened awareness allows him to see details on bodies that others cannot. But what drives him most are the victims who are stripped of life’s moments.
