Whatever that magic is, it seems to stem from Stephen King (and I guess Dean Koontz. And Michael Crichton.).  Maybe reading the source material is just too hard? BTW, the SK book I'd really like to see adapted is <i>Eyes of the Dragon</i>. No one ever talks about that one.  And yeah. . . Happy Town. I think that got pushed back to some time in 2010.  I don't know, but I think it takes a special kind of magic to to make that happen.

If you haven't seen Greek, it's a suprisingly well-written show that doesn't take itself too seriously.  The only thing that gives me hope is that the guys who created Greek are showrunners.

The Colorado Kid was like a weird, boring homage to hard-boiled detective stories. How did they take 2 old guys and one young girl talking about a mysterious case and make it into a really crappy Twin Peaks knockoff? (I mean, kooky characters and secrets? Somebody has some Lynchian pipe dreams.) Speaking of Twin Peaks...whatever happened to that ABC show that was supposed to be all Twin Peaks like? Did it sink already or has it not even aired?
