In his new TV series, Jeff Goldblum plays Detective Michael Raines.
Raines does see the dearly departed, but not in the way we would normally think; the images he sees come from his imagination. Raines has the ability to picture a murder victim as they were in life. This ability allows Goldblum's character to consider the evidence in front of him in a new way.
Rains' character has been pushed to the edge; his partner, Charlie, was killed in the line of duty. The fact that Raines works on his own now does not stop him from having conversations with Charlie.
The first two episodes of "Raines" will air on Thursday nights at 9 p.m. (NBC). The show will then move to the Friday night at 9 time slot.
