We'll open with a dark scene of a hamster struggling with the metaphorical gerbil wheel of modern existence, then "flashback" to a happy (?) universe in which his re-emergence into society is filled with waggy tails and real (not metaphorical) gerbil wheels. <br /><br />Here's the twist: because hamsters don't age in any identifiably way, we'll leave it ambiguous about whether the dark or light scenes are flashbacks or flashforwards. At the mid-season finale, we'll introduce the possibility of time travel, and at the Season One finale, we'll establish that time travel caused alternate realities.<br /><br />Season Two will be mind-blowing.Josie Kafkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17892717530356699008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-11887449935671229032013-02-24T21:14:01.634-05:002013-02-24T21:14:01.634-05:00sunbunny

Very interesting TV Guide article about pilot season. The five main networks have ordered a total of fifty comedies and fifty dramas (or ten of each a piece). What they really want is a show that has a built in marketing value, like <i>Elementary</i> or <i>Arrow</i> this year.<br /><br />The trends:<br />-- major stars like Kevin Bacon, thanks to <i>The Following</i>;<br />-- unconventional families, not work environments;<br />-- government conspiracies, but there have been so many of them recently, I can’t imagine a truly new twist;<br />-- movie and TV reboots;<br />-- kin vs. kin, although after <i>Deception</i> crashed and burned, we’ll see how far that goes;<br />-- mythology, comics and sci-fi, to which I say, bring it on! Thanks, <i>The Walking Dead</i>.ChrisBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10843864158239536750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-8315281197436421002013-02-24T17:42:59.163-05:002013-02-24T17:42:59.163-05:00Josie, I would totally join you!

Dragons and wildlings galore!!! :o)<br /><br />Anyone who suggest recasting Sebastian Stan's Mad Hatter deserves to have their head offed off! :p<br /><br />And I too am seriously offended that the GOT exhibition isn't coming to a city near me! It's not even going to London where at least I have a legitimate excuse of travelling to! (to visit my "baby" sister) *tsk, tsk, tsk*<br /><br />In recent cat news: my sister recently discovered a new species! The "panda-cat"! She took a photo of it on the fence next to her house... sooooo fat it must definitely be a panda-cat hybrid! :pCrazyCrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17512240982215608638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-38445594586661085602013-02-24T14:32:17.930-05:002013-02-24T14:32:17.930-05:00Can't wait for March 31! Loved, loved, loved ...Can't wait for March 31! Loved, loved, loved the GOT trailer. Of course, the hubby is approaching the end of <i>A Clash of Kings</i> --- he's been a series watcher since S1, but decided to catch up with the actual books via audiobook --- and we've been chatting a lot the past few weeks about the differences between the books and show. We're really looking forward to seeing some of the Book 2 characters that haven't yet made it to screen but are due to put in an appearance in S3. (I'm pretty sure I saw Jojen Reed in the trailer and it made me smile!)<br /><br />I've come to the conclusion that I don't really enjoy all the "pilot development" news. We end up getting so excited about who might be in what, but a huge chunk of these things will never get picked up (which is almost certainly for the best). So even though they are "cast" we may not get the pleasure of seeing Tricia Helfer and Josh Holloway on our screens in new guises anytime soon. It all feels like a terrible tease. I'd rather just hear about the things that do get picked up. I know it is all part and parcel of our current news/spoiler culture, but, like spoilers, this practice largely bugs me. (That's not me requesting a change in what we report in Doux News, just me expressing my point of view on pilot development news.)

From what I have seen, quite a few may be silly beyond my ability to watch.<br /><br />That's saying something as I have stuck with some pretty silly shows in the past couple of years...ChrisBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10843864158239536750noreply@blogger.com
