Part of the current wave of titles people are actually watching, Stone Cold earns its spot. The plotting gives Stone Cold its backbone, but it is the characters you come back for. Jesse Stone is 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. Stone's old habits die hard as he continues to indulge his two favorite things: Scotch whiskey and women. Tom Selleck and Kathy Baker lead a cast that never lets the mystery feel thin. It hit screens in 2005. The plot mechanics of Stone Cold never overwhelm the human cost underneath them. It delivers reliably on what it promises, which is more than most of its competition manages.

Crime and mystery fans will find exactly what they are after in Stone Cold. It stands on its own even without an obvious comparison point. A contained runtime means every scene is doing real work. Tom Selleck's performance is the kind that shows up on best-of lists years later. If you have been looking for something to fill the gap left by a recently finished story, this is a reliable answer.
