Keen Eddie was a short-lived Cop Show from the early noughties starring Mark Valley, Sienna Miller and Julian Rhind Tutt.Eddie Arlette, a detective from Manhattan, is taken in when he develops feelings for a duplicitous informant. She and a peculiar chemist trick him into planning a drug-bust for the wrong warehouse, and as a result of his mistake, inadvertently supplies London's drug lords with a year's worth of oxycodone. But Eddie's the only one who can ID the chemist, so he's forced to follow them off to merry old England and atone for the mess he made. He arrives to discover that Fiona Bickerton, the beautiful but prickly daughter of the people he's subletting his flat from, is still living there while she's supposed to be at university, and due to their circumstances, the two become unwilling roommates.Fiona despises Eddie, and that seems to be a sentiment shared by the rest of London, give or take, including the criminal element and the Metropolitan Police Department (Scotland Yard). Eddie's boss, superintendent Nathaniel Johnson, is a stoic hardass with an over-developed ambition for career advancement, who doesn't seem amused by Eddie's American ways. Even Eddie's dog, Pete, bites him regularly. About the only person in town who doesn't want Eddie's head on a plate is his partner, Inspector Monty Pippin, a deceptively spiffy mod with a wild private life. He makes Eddie seem like a prude in comparison and has little interest in controlling himself, but Eddie sees the good in him, and they still manage to get along fine. Together they take down the oxycodone ring and manage to do a lonely man a good turn.Somewhere between Moonlighting and Starsky & Hutch in tone, this isn't exactly a Fish out of Water show so much as a crime-fighting situation. In the first few episodes, the show tends to be more in the Guy Ritchie line than anything else, with blingy editing, techno music, outlandish fight scenes, glamor and sex-appeal riding the surface, desperately trying to look cool. But beneath all the flash is a story about a man who clings to his belief in humanity and gravitates toward lost souls, risking life and limb to bring them back from the edge. He does everything he can to help people — not just the victims of crime, but criminals as well. Even his friends aren't safe from the Care-Bear Stare that is Eddie Arlette. All of this becomes obvious within a few episodes, but by the time the show hit its stride, it was too late. Only thirteen episodes were made and, due to being yanked around the schedule and buried, only a handful aired on FOX before it was unceremoniously canceled. Many people who saw the show caught it on the Bravo airings. It was last seen on the "Sleuth" channel.The last few episodes of Keen Eddie make the relationship arcs apparent and give the viewer an idea of what they could have expected in the second season: Eddie's only mechanism for coping with change is to force his surroundings to adapt to him, but London actually seems to be warming to the idea. His dog still bites him, though. | |

Moe Couplet: Eddie and Monty. Usually, Eddie is judgmental and non-social, and Monty is selfish and craven, but Eddie's influence often causes Monty to behave in a more heroic manner, while Eddie's loftiness is undermined by his affection for Monty. They're effortlessly sincere with each other and very dynamic as a team, and seem to be the opposite when apart. | |

Not Himself | |
| Keen Eddie / int_59f0de2a | comment |
Not Himself: "Citizen Cecil" mostly takes place during a full moon, and as a result, several characters aren't themselves. The usually bickering Eddie and Fiona are nice to each other, Pete and Duchess (a dog and cat) get along, normally smooth Nathaniel loses control of his command center/office, and Audrey, Monty's friend-with-benefits/partner in crime, suddenly wants to get serious. | |

The Lancer | |
| Keen Eddie / int_60b21fa3 | comment |
The Lancer: Despite being the star of the show, Eddie is Nathaniel's Lancer. He's the only officer at the MET who has the balls to stand up to Nathaniel and challenge his detached, unsympathetic, "appearances are everything" approach to crime-fighting. It's possible that's why Nathaniel has him around. But if Eddie were the leader of his division, Monty would be Eddie's lancer. | |

Red Oni, Blue Oni | |
| Keen Eddie / int_8411ab92 | comment |
Red Oni, Blue Oni: Eddie is a brash, rough-and-tumble New Yorker who has no trouble expressing himself and isn't afraid to challenge powerful, dangerous people in his pursuit of justice. He's genuinely confused by Monty, who he finds difficult to figure out. Monty's far more aloof, timid, docile and wisely duplicitous, and sticks to social expectations like glue. He also happens to be fond of natty blue suits. Interestingly, this is really only true of Eddie and Monty in the workplace. In their private lives, Monty is more forward, wild, and instinctual, while Eddie is more thoughtful, disciplined, and given to navel-gazing. | |

Assimilation Academy: Ollerton, Monty's alma mater, seems to be a Boarding School of Horrors complete with a Dean Bitterman-style Headmaster and evil alums. Given their connections, they assume they are above the law and let the new student Initiation Ceremony in their most elite house become extremely dangerous, all the while pressuring victims to keep quiet. They even try to scare Monty into hushing everything up by not only threatening him, but his brother and mother as well. Their school motto is "Audi, Vide, Tace". | |

The Dulcinea Effect: Eddie is prone to this, it's what screws him in the first episode (mistaking a bad girl for a damsel), and it's what draws him into a the case in the last episode (following a lady in need into a case so dangerous, no other cop will touch it). Eddie admits his reasons for being prone to this in the first episode: he needs to be needed. | |

Once he's back in London, he fails repeatedly to keep Eddie off his back. When he's finally caught in the end, we find out why he's working with the drug-runners in the first place. He needed money to take his late wife's body back to her home to be buried. | |

Freudian Slip | |
| Keen Eddie / int_e8ca5cb3 | comment |
Freudian Slip: Three good ones, including Fiona telling Eddie the secret ingredient in the soup she made him was "Love," Eddie accidentally calling Carol "Ms. Hornypenny," and Monty telling Eddie "I love you," instead of "I'll leave you." | |

Violent Glaswegian: publican Johnny Red, co-owner of the Sticky Wicket Pub in "Horse Heir" and "Sticky Fingers," who is blood-feuding with his brother-in-law One Ball Bill It's possible that Cecil Barrett from "Citizen Cecil" falls into this, given how he sounds Scottish | |

Running Gag | |
| Keen Eddie / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: There are several, one being Eddie's fantasies about Carol coming on to him, which he assumes are really happening. Usually results in him mentally checking out until Monty snaps him out of it. A more subtle running gag happens several times when Nathaniel insults Eddie. Eddie gets Nathaniel back, but his insults usually go too far and are always completely serious. Nathaniel tends to take this in his stride, but Monty — who's more-or-less terrified of Nathaniel — has a silent meltdown. There's a few from "Horse Heir": The euphemisms used by anyone attempting to describe the "event" surrounding the extraction of a racehorse's seed, and the reaction people have to the manual's instructions on how to do it being "unnatural" followed by someone pointing out that the manual says otherwise. The constant drop-of-a-hat fistfights of One-Ball Bill and Johnny Red | |
