Dr. Mark Sloan has a knack for getting into trouble, negotiating the twists and turns of mysteries and solving crimes with the help of his son, Steve, a homicide detective.
There is no mystery here, no suspense, no humor, no pulse, no heartbeat, nothing beyond the amiable Van Dyke looking hopelessly out of sync in a series that evokes an occasional memory of better times.
All Diagnosis Murder wants to do is please an audience of older viewers, renew their TV friendship with Van Dyke, and give the star's son Barry, who plays a vacant-eyed cop, some work.
This is a nice, entertaining little show that doesn't break any new ground but provides a bit of a diversion as Sloan solves contrived but interesting little murders.
Diagnosis Murder, with its old-fashioned narrative style and its vaguely silly title, is nevertheless fairly well put together and should satisfy undemanding viewers in search of undemanding entertainment.
