BallWubba Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.
Portia Hilton Blistering performances.
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
ReganRebecca I only started watching Wonderfalls after it was cancelled. I know that show runner Bryan Fuller had plans already laid out for multiple seasons but at the same time the show works perfectly on it's own and comes to a satisfying conclusion.The show is about Jaye, the baby in a family of overachievers (and the only one in her family who doesn't have a rhyming name, to emphasize how much she doesn't belong). To the complete befuddlement of her family Jaye works a dead-end retail job, lives in a trailer park and mostly avoid them. That is until one day Jaye begins hearing voices telling her to do things. The voices always belong to an inanimate toy or object with a face on it and though they offer her no explanation for the tasks the coerce her to perform their actions often lead, in befuddling and confusing ways, towards good. There isn't a lot of explanation to the why's and hows of how Jaye hears voices but they aren't needed. The entire cast is perfect. Caroline Dhavernas is great as Jaye, Tyron Leitso is great as a heartbroken bartender who quickly becomes her love interest. The members of her family aren't a good physical match for Dhavernas, but they really do seem like a family and are all hilarious at physical comedy. There are also so many fabulous guest stars that just completely own their episodes. It's a great, funny, smart show that perfectly works as a whole. If only there could be more series as great as this one.
juliovangel I saw all these comparisons to a similar show called "Dead like Me" and in my opinion they are spot on. The problem with most of these shows that sell themselves as being "fresh", "underground", "original" with "good dialogue" and "creative" is that they lack back bone for the long run. The writers throw their best ideas in the first episodes and by the time they get to the end of the first/start of the second season, the great twists have already been given away, most of them even early in the series.This show does not deserve this high rating; it obviously follows a pattern that would eventually lead to an early demise.
rachel brake unfortunately, i've only seen the episodes that fox aired (but i've just ordered the first season). this show is so amazing. my husband and i really enjoyed it. as we did't have a lot of choice in what to watch, no cable, i set the vcr as soon as i saw the first preview for this show. after becoming addicted to it after four episodes, my vcr started taping a load of other junk. i checked the fox website, i searched for this show...i was devastated for weeks that it was no longer found! my husband was mad. he decided that a show so smart with a brunette star so smart was bound to get canceled. i just discovered that i can buy a full 13 episodes, so i did it. it'll be a welcome surprise for my law student husband. and because i'm in nursing school, we're no longer able to keep up with current shows. so, getting this first (and, unfortunately, only) season will be a welcome surprise for my husband and me! THIS IS ONE OF THE TRULY GREAT, INTELLIGENT SHOWS OF ALL TIME!
