I had thought it was going to be a typical series, but now that you mention it, it makes more sense that it will be a set of mini-series. I guess they will show in the US on Mystery. Have you heard whether Moffat plans to do any original scripts, or will they all be based on Doyle's books? > I liked it.

The only one in that list I'm not familiar with is Misfits. I did not like the most recent Torchwood season, and Being Human is just to angsty for my taste (apparently it was first conceived as "real" flatmates with psychological problems). I haven't gotten around to sampling Primeval yet. _______________________________________________ http://box535.bluehost.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l_mccmedia.com
