Jamie Bamber Joins '17th Precinct'Jamie Bamber -- the man also known as frakkin' Lee Adama -- will star in 'Battlestar Galactica' boss Ron Moore's new magical-world-based police drama, '17th Precinct.'

This pilot just went from intriguing to must-see TV.

According to TVLine, Bamber will play Caolan, "an extremely focused crime scene detective."

'17th Precinct' is set in the fictional city of Excelsior, a place where magic and the supernatural rule over science.

The other announced cast member of the NBC pilot is former 'The West Wing' star Stockard Channing. She'll play Mira, a former homicide detective who now works the robbery beat.

After 'Battlestar Galactica' ended, Bamber guest starred on the short-lived 'Dollhouse' and headlined 'Law & Order: U.K.'

Would this be something like dresden files, the book series, or garrett, p.i. by glen cook? Hopefully a combination of both...
