All Things: TELEVISON

I'm interested to see how Sean Bean puts himself into deep cover that takes months to set up in every episode. I don't know if TBS has the patience to do it by having the whole season (or half of it) be one mission, but THAT would be a good show. I'm calling my agent right now.

Looked again like an episode by episode basis, but at least the VX gas story is getting continued to a 2nd episode if not more. They sure are not afraid of killing off his team members..

Come on people, they did have this show and it was called Wiseguy. I only wish I had seen it.
 
John Simm and James Frain Talk INTRUDERS, the Unsettling Tone, Providing Answers by the End of Season 1, and More

From writer/executive producer Glen Morgan (The X-Files), the BBC America drama series Intruders is about a secret society devoted to chasing immortality by seeking refuge in the bodies of others. A missing wife (Mira Sorvino), an assassin (James Frain) covering his crimes and a child (Millie Brown) on the run are all seemingly unrelated, but will intertwine to reveal a conspiracy that will lead former LAPD cop Jack Whelan (John Smith) question everything.

Unsettling tone you say...
Since we no longer have the BBC thread.
Anyway, why am I just hearing about this. I like Frain...True Blood essentially died for me when he got staked. And the premise sounds great especially in the hands of an ex-X-Files guy. Note to self, put this one on the dvr season pass.

Spoiler: Firefly wins.

Jericho beat Happy Endings? Criminal.

Speaking of Firefly, I finally decided to watch it the last two weeks on Netflix. I kept seeing that show's name pop up almost everywhere and decided to check it out. Better late than never right? Didn't even know Adam Baldwin was in it and I loved him in Chuck! The movie was awesome too. I didn't like the end results of it too much, but at least there was closure.

Now I'm upset for two reasons.

1) I hate Fox even more for canceling this show, or better yet... setting it up to fail from the start.

2) Hate my teenage self for missing out in 2002-2003.

Sometimes everybody is right. FOX loves to cancel shows, but at least they try things like Firefly. Is there a show on CBS that is not a reality competition, a cop show, or a lowbrow comedy? FOX's marketing department didn't help ("a space hooker!"), I'll tell you that. I think that if Firefly came out now, with genre shows actually in vogue and people all over Twitter and whatnot, it might have had a chance. Put it on right after Sleepy Hollow.

I still think Whedon should require the movie studio to finance a Firefly movie for every Avengers movie he directs.

I am a leaf on the wind...
