Ving Rhames is the new Kojak

Rhames3.jpgWho loves you baby? Well I do. I love Ving Rhames, I think he’s an actor with more presence than Darth Vader dressed up as Santa, and Kojak just seems a perfect part for him, how did we never think of that before?

Okay, so it’s a new television series produced by Bonnie Hammer of the Sci-Fi Channel and USA Network, but the production ended in August on a two hour movie to kick start the series when it begins to air in March 2005.

I realize that this might be a travesty to some, you might not think Kojak could ever be replaced, but I do believe that Mr Rhames is the one who could do it. The teaser of the movie in ComingSoon says:

The show was celebrated by police departments around the country for what was then considered a realistic portrayal of police work. In the pilot, Kojak hunts down a serial killer who continues to puzzle New York City detectives by targeting prostitutes with young children. After visiting a crime scene where he meets a victim’s children left without their mother ? let alone a legal guardian ? he is overcome with anger and compassion, and vows to personally avenge the killings.

Now that’s a blurb I like. Okay everyone, what do you think? Is Rhames a good choice?
