I enjoyed the latest in the Tom Selleck - Jesse Stone series by the late Robert B. Parker that aired on CBS this evening...
Jesse Stone: No Remorse
Sunday, May 9th, 9/8c on CBS
JESSE STONE: NO REMORSE, starring Emmy® and Golden Globe® Award winner Tom Selleck, will be broadcast Sunday, May 9th, 9/8c (2 hours) on the CBS Television Network. Selleck reprises his Emmy-nominated role as Jesse Stone ("Jesse Stone: Sea Change") in the sixth installment of the Jesse Stone franchise from Sony Pictures Television. The series includes "Stone Cold," "Jesse Stone: Night Passage," "Jesse Stone: Death in Paradise," "Jesse Stone: Sea Change" and "Jesse Stone: Thin Ice." The movies are based on characters created by the late Robert B. Parker in the best-selling series of books.
In JESSE STONE: NO REMORSE, Police Chief Jesse Stone, who was suspended by the Paradise, Mass. Town Council, begins moonlighting for his friend, State Homicide Commander Healy, by investigating a series of murders in Boston, leaving Rose and Suitcase to handle a crime spree in Paradise on their own. Jesse pours his energy into his work in an effort to push away his twin demons: booze and women. When his investigation leads to notorious mob boss Gino Fish, Jesse's pursuit becomes hazardous.
Emmy and Golden Globe Award winner Kathy Baker ("Picket Fences") and Kohl Sudduth ("Grosse Pointe") reprise their roles as Rose Gammon and Luther "Suitcase" Simpson, the only police officers in Paradise. Stephen McHattie ("2012") reprises his role as State Homicide Commander Healy, as does William Devane ("24") as Jesse's psychiatrist, Dr. Dix, and William Sadler ("The Shawshank Redemption") as Gino Fish. Saul Rubinek ("Warehouse 13") returns as Hasty Hathaway, fresh from a stint in prison, and Krista Allen ("The Starter Wife") joins the cast as Hathaway's ex-wife, Cissy, who never misses an opportunity to tell Jesse she's interested.

About the Jesse Stone Movies
Jesse Stone: Stone Cold: Tom Selleck is Jesse Stone, a former L.A. homicide detective who left behind the big city and an ex-wife to become the police chief of the quiet New England fishing town of Paradise, Massachusetts. Stone's old habits die hard as he continues to indulge in his two favorite things - scotch and women. When a series of murders take place, and a high school girl is raped, he's forced to face his own demons in order to solve the crimes.
Jesse Stone: Night Passage: Co-starring William Devane (TV’s
Knot’s Landing), the TV movie finds Chief Stone (Selleck) settling into his new life in Paradise when he becomes obsessed with finding the killer of a teenage girl. His quest to solve the murder unearths facts indicating there is more to the girl’s history than originally suspected and the new clues lead him to probe the Boston underworld.
Jesse Stone: Death In Paradise:
Jesse Stone: Night Passage is a prequel to 2005’s Stone Cold. Co-starring Stephanie March (TV’s
Law & Order: SVU) and Stephen Baldwin (
The Usual Suspects), the telefilm depicts Jesse Stone’s (Selleck) first days as Paradise, Massachusetts’ Chief of Police. He must immediately find the killer of his predecessor, plus investigate a domestic violence situation involving the city’s resident hothead (Baldwin), whose ties to a local bank manager expose a money-laundering scheme.
Jesse Stone: Sea Change: Co-starring William Devane, Kathy Baker (
Edward Scissorhands) and Sean Young (
Blade Runner), this installment finds Chief Stone (Selleck) bored with what he perceives as his mundane life, struggling to keep his drinking and his obsession with beautiful women under control. Stone’s restlessness gets the best of him and he re-opens a 12-year-old cold file involving the murder of a bank teller. The inquiry reveals fresh clues and Stone soon finds himself busier than ever as the unsolved case leads to another centered around an alleged rape aboard a yacht during the town’s annual Race Week.
Jesse Stone: Thin Ice: Jesse Stone is back! When his friend and fellow cop is shot during a visit to Boston, small town police chief Jesse Stone risks his life and career to solve the crime while also investigating the disappearance of a missing child in this exciting fifth installment in the popular Jesse Stone movies based on the best-selling books by Robert B. Parker.
