Wasn't aware of the book, but that makes sense. Tap into multiple pre-existing fanbases (fans of the book, as well as the actresses).
TNT also has The Closer, and recently had Saving Grace. Its a formula that works for them.

If anything I'd say that's a trolling comment. I clearly said I like her but think she's the most overrated. How is that trolling? Seems like your comment is more designed to incite emotions.
BTW does anybody here remember the joke show during the credits of Forgetting Sarah Marshal? I think they called it "Animal Instinct" or something. The premise was that she could read the mind of animals and used it in her crime fighting. That's all I can picture when thinking about this show.

You hear a description of a show about real investigators.... and go right to animal psychics... huh.

Kristen Bell's character was a real investigator in the show as well. When it comes to works of fiction what is real anyway?

The show is named after the non-fiction book -- Scent of the Missing: Love and Partnership with a Search-and-Rescue Dog by Susannah Charleson. I got a Hollywood brainstorm! Change the focus of the show -- call it Search-and-Rescue Dog. 

Summer Glau and dog from Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Season 2, Episode 22 (2009)

Uh.... WHAT??
Are you being purposefully obtuse... or have you stepped into la-la land??
Bell was playing a fictional character.... with supernatural powers.
Summer is playing a K9 cop.... a fairly common REAL job. Fictionalized perhaps, but I kinda assumed you were smart enough to recognize the difference.

When it's a woman with glowing eyes who speaks to animals.... if you don't know where that falls on the scale, you might want to see psychological help.

After defending you, Im swinging around to thinking that the person who called you a troll might just be right after all.
You are just trying to be a dick, aren't ya? You're not really as dense as you're coming off, right?
Right?

She was a police detective. That's just as real as a K9 cop. I don't think her eyes were actually glowing to anyone else. It was just a cue to the viewer that she was communicating with the animal. Kinda like Chuck flashing. There isn't actually a bunch of little images shooting out of his eyes.

That one was a joke. But with all good jokes there's some truth to it.
