What will be the new GG? The HBO series, about three sister writers and their domineering literary mother?

And I don't know about that other show. :mellow:

I know she also has a feature coming, she adapted The Late Bloomer's Revolution and it will star Sarah Jessica Parker. Reportedly it will come in 2011.

Nikita, I can take or leave. I liked the USA show, but I think that's a weird thing to want to bring back.

And I hope the Wyoming thing is more LHOTP than GG.

CW has some pretty decent scripts in development, I think, based on what's on The Futon Critic. There's another family soap about the horse-racing world, one about college cheerleading, and one about an aspiring country singer.

I'm willing to bet that this Wyoming farm soap is a US remake of Australia's very successful McLeod's Daughters soap, set on an outback cattle farm.

And yet another remake of Nikita? The original movie was awesome. The US remake was turgid. The USA TV series was campy, addictive fun, to the point where I don't really want another show recreating Nikita and Michael's twisted love story. Peta Wilson and Roy Dupuis (even though he was from the Ronn MOss School of Acting) made the show.

    • Holly's final big story was the Sebastian mess in late 2004.   Vanessa and Matt were promoted to regulars near the end and were heavily recurring prior to that starting around 2007/2008.
    • Keith has a softer presence, but it would have helped to see him be more aggressive or proactive in protecting them instead of standing around like a mannequin. A man the audience should be hoping and wishing gets back together with his wife. Nicole needs a new husband!
    • She needs to learn to be honest with her husband about her lusty interests because being sex positive only works if you're not cheating on your spouse.

    • Very disappointed in the writers in the way they are screwing with Nicole, Ted,  and Kat to make Leslie remain viable. So many holes everywhere.
    • Somebody brought this up elsewhere which emphasizes why this NuTed appears as such a weakling. Why is Kat doing what HE should be doing? And that's everything he can to rid him and his family of this crazy woman. Kat is doing all kinds of things she shouldn't do but now I understand her more. She can't count on her father to eliminate this woman because he's a wimp. He's been too busy inviting her into his home and serving her drinks and offering her invitations to birthday parties. WIMP!!!!
    • It's Men's Mental Health Month.

    • This is (maybe) overly simplistic and nonsoapy, but Doug needs to go to Gamblers Anonymous, to deal with the addictive neurological excitement hits that gambling gives him - and which control his life. Vanessa needs to go to therapy to find ways to remain healthfully lusty and sex-positive, but to stay away from anyone who would demean her.
    • YT keeps commending GL clips to me. I discovered Kathleen Cullen was on in Christmas 1987. Was there any talk of making it permanent  or was this just a special visit? I wish they had made the visit permanent. I liked her chemistry with Grant Aleksander.  
    • I'm not sure it's as unpopular as you think.  I just think the show knew they were in a bind, and needed a proven couple for the viewers to invest in. Trying to reunite Vanessa and Ross had just failed in 87. I don't think Ed and Holly's affair was well received, as Simon and Garrett had a brother/sister chemistry. Enter Billy and Vanessa, who give you history and an out not to try and do a Josh/Reva/Billy triangle, which would've really wrecked the relationship between Josh and Billy. I'd have been ok with trying Vanessa/Ross again, and doing a Vanessa/Ross/Holly/Billy quad for a while. I hated Nadine. HATED. She had to be the most insufferable also-ran before ATWT's Julia Lindsay. This is where I wish I knew Roger's history better.
