	SignOnSanDiego.com > News > Features -- 'Karen Sisco' thin on action
		Now played by Carla Gugino, Karen Sisco, a U.S. marshal based in Miami, began her life as a character in an Elmore Leonard novel.
		Tonight, Sisco has just two things to do – remember what happened in a shootout where she was almost mortally wounded, and decide if her studly new boyfriend (Patrick Dempsey) is a bank robber, or just misunderstood.
		Sisco arrives this season as part of a mini-trend of female crime-busters on the small screen, including ABC's "Alias" and "Cold Case" on CBS.

	Floridian: Take 2, 'Karen Sisco'
		Karen Sisco is one of five prime-time TV shows this fall set in Miami.
		Like Sisco, who is drawn as a streetwise combination of guts, brains and beauty, Gugino is a sharp professional who knows that much of today's success is riding on her good attitude and passion for perfection.
		Still, the rise of shows such as Sisco and CSI: Miami, in which the city's ambience is used almost as another character onscreen, ups the ante for TV producers seeking a setting couch potatoes haven't seen a thousand times before.

		One of the pluses of "Karen Sisco" is that, true to Leonard's fiction, the fugitives Karen tracks are more than generic baddies.
		In tonight's less compelling hour, Karen realizes she may be sleeping with the enemy, a charter-boat owner played by Patrick Dempsey.
		"Karen Sisco" is primarily about the ongoing spectacle of Karen's high-heeled bravado, but its crimes of the week are also rich in character.

	Character-driven 'Karen Sisco' is an all-around winner
		"Karen Sisco's" spark is in the interplay between police procedure and hard-boiled romance.
		Karen and her close relationship with her private investigator father, Marshall (Robert Forster), are at the heart of these tales, and in "Karen Sisco," Gugino's easy interactions with Forster give each episode a certain glow.
		As such, ABC's Karen Sisco" requires a bit of patience for viewers who are familiar neither with Leonard nor the concept of a cop show that is anything less than fast moving and by the book.

		Karen Sisco (Carla Gugino), the lead character in the ABC cop drama of the same name, is one of the fall season's more intriguing newcomers.
		But Karen Sisco is the most fascinating version of this narrative because it's oh-so Freudian and out there in the way it links guns and violence to sex and the female body.
		Sisco strikes me as a male fantasy that has as much to do with power as it does sexuality.

	Karen Sisco \| PopMatters Television Review
		Her romance with Carl (Patrick Dempsey) is a useful distraction from her professional woes: the opening sequence cuts between their flirtatious guessing-game and her fractured memory of the shooting.
		Discovering that Carl is a criminal suspect, he practically cackles with glee when he tells Karen: "Of course, I was surprised to discover that a Federal Marshal was sharing her bed with a suspected bank robber." In his eyes, she's more guilty for sleeping with Carl than he is for committing robberies.
		Karen's emotional life and job collide when she must arrest Carl after a botched robbery attempt that has left his partner dead.

		Around for Karen with an open ear--and not a lot of unwanted advice or meddling in her life--is her dad (played by Robert Forster), a semi-retired private eye who enjoys card games with his friends--a group of ex-cons.
		Gugino's Karen Sisco is just the right blend of modern-day heroine....tough on the outside, but vulnerable on the inside.
		Forster's portrayal of Karen's dad, Marshall Sisco, is just right--a low key, shoulder to cry on guy who loves his daughter more than anything and just wants her to find the right guy and settle down.

		Sisco is, not surprisingly, independent and self-sufficient and all the other things we expect of the modern macho heroine.

		Her moves are always under the watchful eye of her dad, a private investigator whose constant worry about his daughter won’t dissuade her from continuing in her line of work.
		This is mostly due to the title character, as “Karen Sisco” is heavy on action but light on acting, which makes her so remote and inaccessible that viewers are left (whichever few are left) to wonder if they should make any emotional attachment to her.
		The unlikable Sisco kin don't help either, as her father plays an equally cold cop and her boyfriend -- a married man -- fails to inspire any warmth for either his or her character.
