The good die young - too good to survive the ratings war

Lets see... written by Bryan Fuller, directed by Bryan Singer, starring Eddie Izzard and Portia de Rossi. Sounds too good to be true - its almost like a dream team. If you don't know who those people are and what great work they have been involved in, then head over to IMDB and find out. In particular Fuller who with Wonderfalls, Dead Like Me, Pushing Daisies has managed to combine proper story with whimsical treatment of supernatural themes. But then his stuff does tend to get cancelled pretty quickly - thats what you get fro trying to be smart & clever and not stoop to lowest common denominator cringe based sitcoms.

So what have these people been doing. The have been remaking The Munsters. Yes really. It is called Mockingbird Lane. Its good. Find a copy and watch it. Quick, before it gets cancelled.
