    The pilot shows how a woman is searching for love, and is running out of time. Even though, there is a large amount of explicit content, the pilot approaches the dilemma in a fresh, new way.

    There are so many familiar ideas and stories in BMJ that it's easy to miss some of the show's more daring and interesting moments. Mercifully, though, they're in there.

    Both the summer movie and Tuesday’s premiere feature plot points so severe and odd that they destabilize the show’s narrative.
