NBC has added supernatural soap Vines to its roster of drama projects
in development for next season, with The Ring director Hideo Nakata on
board to executive produce and possibly direct. The project, from
writer Mark Kruger (The 4400) and film producer Michael Aguilar, was
originally developed as a feature, which serves as inspiration for the
potential series. It centers on a troubled family desperate for a
fresh start that takes over a Napa Valley winery whose ancient vines
possess dangerous mystical powers.
I was about to ask if it were about a family in Maine with a vampire
"cousin" from the eighteenth century...

It is simply breathtaking to watch the glee and abandon with which
the liberal media and the Angry Left have been attempting to turn
our military victory in Iraq into a second Vietnam quagmire. Too bad
for them, it's failing.

Jane Wyman would be PERFECT for the part of the family matriarch!

It sounds sort of interesting. Unfortunately, reception in my house
is bad
and I really can't view NBC.

Don't feel badly; many people with *cable* can't view that network
either.

It's been broadcast at the same time on the same day since it premiered.
How is that fucking?

Probably the reference is to the fact that this last Monday it was
pre-empted by a special: "The Girls of SNL".

Of course, out here on the west coast it would have been going up
against the end of (what turned out to be) the last game of the World
Series (and post-game celebrations), plus
Last-night-before-the-election stuff. So they may well have thought
that it was going to be a wasted night as far as ratings go and just
ran some cheap filler.

Which *obviously* does not belong anywhere but on a Saturday.

Then they thought wrong. I, for one, would have watched it. Instead, I
watched nothing, and their ratings for Monday night turned out abysmal.

Because you're wrong about me, that's why.

What he said was "And they keep fucking with the scheduling of serials

One pre-emption since the premiere hardly qualifies as "keep fucking."

Because of the "only one pre-empt" factor for The Event I took his
statement to mean that there were many changes/pre-empts/whatever over
the network's various serials when taken as a whole - and that The
Event was simply the latest example of such a change.
