Dancing with the Stars, was 5 hours too much?

Disney devoted 5 hours of primetime tv to its Dancing With The Stars franchise this week. The end result was to kick the two male comedians (Ted McGinley and Jeffrey Ross) off the bloated roster. Perhaps they could have done that and risked not over-exposing… Read More »Dancing with the Stars, was 5 hours too much?

Legend of the Seeker promo shots

Another show I’m looking forward to this fall is “Legend of the Seeker.” The book series upon which it’s based has a huge following for a good reason, it’s a powerful story. The show will be produced by Disney, but won’t be on ABC or ABC Family, instead it’s going directly to syndication. So beginning November 1, 2008, check your local listings for time and channel.

Disney has now released these promo photos (two more below the cut) and have some short video trailers at the official site. Here’s the official blurb:

“Legend of the Seeker” picks up during the aftermath of the brutal murder of his father told in “The Sword of Truth.” According to author Terry Goodkind, ( who is also the writer for several of the TV series scripts), a mysterious woman, Kahlan Amnell, appears in Richard Cypher’s forest sanctuary seeking help…and more. His world, his very beliefs, are shattered when ancient debts come due with thundering violence. In their darkest hour, hunted relentlessly, tormented by treachery and loss, Kahlan calls upon Richard to reach beyond his sword-to invoke within himself something more noble. Neither knows that the rules of battle have just changed…or that their time has run out. This is the beginning. One story. One Rule. Witness the birth of a legend.

I miss LOST

Man, I miss LOST. The new season is still a few months away and I’m beginning to feel like it will never come. It’s a good thing ABC’s publicists are slowly dealing out the love via articles and interviews with some of the show’s biggest… Read More »I miss LOST
