简介：


A&E有线电视台新剧“The Cleaner ”（清洁工）于7月15日首播，本剧集的制作人同时也是CBS电视台去年新剧“Cane”（家族风云）的制片人Jonathan Prince，本剧集根据现实生活一个“极端乾涉主义者”的故事改编，故事主人公William（Benjamin Bratt扮演） 一直沉沦于生活的最低谷，在经历自己女儿的出生后，决定与上帝达成一个临时约定而重新振作起来并致力于帮助那些面临困境的人们；为此他还组织一个非正式小组来帮助那些需要帮助的人们。故事的主演Benjamin Bratt刚刚出演了A&E有线电视台的科幻迷你剧“The Andromeda Strain”（人间大浩劫），不过貌似反响还不错。

The Cleaner is a new A&E drama series that centers on William Banks (Benjamin Bratt). Banks spends his free time collecting junkies, impulsive gamblers and other types of addicts off the street and delivering them safely to rehab. He's an "Extreme Interventionist" and is usually hired (though I'm not sure that he gets paid) by the family or close friends of the addict. Tracking down addicts and detaining them usually requires more than one person, which is where Banks' friends come in. Akani Cuesta (Grace Park) is a streetwise woman who has a bit of romantic history with Banks. Arnie (Esteban Powell) is kind of a whiner and isn't always the most professional but he's part of the team. Banks' best friend Mickey's trying to stay clean and save his marriage as well as be there for Ben. Finally, their's Kevin, a car salesman who has a brother that Banks helped get into rehab. Kevin wants on Banks' team so that he can give something back to the group that helped his brother.

The pilot episode follows Banks and his team as they attempt to find a kid who is strung out on drugs. Getting to see the team at work, attempting to track this kid down gives us a pretty good idea of what the characters are all about. In fact, one of the major complaints about this episode was that there was an overkill in the character department. It was as though we were meant to know and understand the relationships of everyone in the show all based on this one episode. For example: Ben wants to quit smoking. Ben's having trouble with his kids. Ben needs a new truck. Ben was once an addict. These are just a few little tidbits of information that are told to us in one conversation or another throughout the pilot. Very little of what we learned about the characters seemed to come out naturally. I don't think it's a bad thing to give a somewhat thorough introduction of the main characters in any pilot episode but the pacing just felt off here. Add that to some of the moments that should've come off as deep and meaningful that just fell flat. Like Ben explaining to his kids about why he talks to God and why he devotes so much time to tracking down addicts. It seemed like every scene had some conversation that explained what was happening and why. I guess I would've preferred the dialogue to back off a bit and just let us figure some of this stuff out ourselves.

Benjamin Bratt does an admirable job playing Banks, who is based on a real life intervention specialist and there's no real reason not to like his character, other than the fact that he has a troubled past and some problems prioritizing at home. As a fan of Battlestar Galactica, I was pleased to see Grace Park in this series. Park does a decent job with her role and there's a fun, sexy, rebellious side to her that we don't often see from her character(s) on BSG.

The problem with the pilot wasn't so much about the acting or even the story. There were a couple of intense moments that really worked but again, it felt like there was just too much being introduced all at once. There were a number of things that took place at the end of this first episode that left me feeling like I should've cared a lot more than I did. I mean, here you have a story about a man on a quest for redemption, dedicating part of his life to saving people who are living the same (or a similar) life that he once had. That's a great premise for a series. So I'm not going to give up on The Cleaner just yet but it would be nice to see this series settle into a more comfortable groove (preferably within the next couple of episodes).

故事主要角色：


Benjamin Bratt 扮演 William；已经快奔50岁Benjamin最早从电视剧“Law & Order”转行拍电影到再转行拍电视剧，不知道这次的转行也能否让他再辉煌一把！



Amy Price-Francis 扮演 Mellissa Banks；英国演员，曾在很多电视剧中有过演出，熟悉的有“Californication”（加州靡情）等。


Grace Park 扮演 Akani；不用多介绍“Battlestar Galactica”（太空堡垒卡拉狄加）中的8号MM，Grace Park终于摆脱Boomer这个角色阴影而开始尝试新的角色，希望她能有所突破！


Esteban Powell 扮演Arnie Swenton，一个龙套演员，曾在“Journeyman”、“Saving Grace”、“Monk”等多部电视剧跑过龙套。


Kevin Michael Richardson 扮演Darnell Mc Dowell，好像是个声优演员，在好多卡通剧中担任重要配音角色，在电视剧露面的机会不是很多！
