TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film

Peereddi I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Fulke Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

FlorisV This is sort of an OK show. There are continuous attempts at quirky, sharp dialogues with a mediocre success rate. But the cast is good and at least it's trying to be something different.Just like in Dead Like Me there's a sarcastic underachieving girl. In Dead Like Me she has to help people cope with their own death. In this show she gets assignments from little statues to cause small but important changes in the lives of people so that they accidentally improve it.This formula gets really old from the second episode on. It usually involves people accidentally meeting the love of their life through a twist of fate, instantly falling in love. This takes away all the intelligence the show has at moments and kind of puts it in a routine, dull, though slightly less sugarcoated Amelie (that French film) mode, the main character trying to be a do-good-er.There's also a tendency to put characters into awkward situations but it's equally cheap and formulaic. I watched two episodes but already felt I knew how each episode was going to be. Disappointingy this show is not about real life (even Dead Like Me, as overrated as it was, seemed to do a better job at that) and ultimately it's as dull-minded and preaching as the average young adult drama series although it so desperately tries not to be. Every single person in the show has a soulmate somewhere that's always within reach and when that person is met, through a twist of fate, there's instant magic. I was hoping this would be a show that would ridicule that sort of cheap lie, the way a lot of Woody Allen films do, showing the randomness of life, but instead there seems to be a genuine belief in fortune cookie and tile wisdoms, the type of thing that you would find in the kitschy souvenir shop that the main character works in.

SnoopyStyle Jaye Tyler (Caroline Dhavernas) is a disaffected college graduate living in her trailer, and working in a dead end job in a Niagara Falls souvenir shop. Her days are pointless until the souvenirs starts talking to her. They command her in cryptic messages, and they just won't shut up. She's never sure about their meaning, and can never predict the wild outcomes. Jaye is forced to break out of her apathy and falls for bartender Eric Gotts (Tyron Leitso). She begins to repair her relationships with her family.This is Bryan Fuller's whimsy at its best. The talking nick nacks are wonderful. Dhavernas is adorably bitter. The show is filled with great actors. It was canceled almost immediately by Fox after 4 episodes, and only 13 episodes were ever made. It never got a good audience but also never got much of a chance.

horus1775 I'm on a hill in the middle of nowhere in Iraq and one guy from my squad pops in the first episode of the show. At first I thought it was a stupid chick show and I was about to make fun of him. But, then the girl started to hear the wax lion talk to her. I thought it was crazy, yet funny. The show could have been really corny yet it was too clever for that. The dialogue is hilarious, the actors are perfect and the show's delivery is superb. Now, there's other things we can do during our few hours of downtime, like playing xbox or watching paint dry in 115 degree heat. But, I found myself enthralled w/ this show and couldn't stop watching it. I couldn't believe it was canceled. What a mistake. I probably would have watched TV back in the states if I knew this show was still on the air. Unlike some people, I hate reality shows. So, after I watched the entire season and the extras, I bought my own copy of the show from Amazon. I plan to watch it again w/ my wife when I'm home for leave. She's into the Gilmore Girls, 7th Heaven and all that girly crap but this show will be a happy medium btw us. Even though Wonderfalls was suppose to be a TV show, it felt like it was a 9 hour movie...and I loved every minute of it.

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!
