"Wonderfalls on FOX"

Did anyone see this new show on Friday night?

It was about a young woman who works at a gift shop in Niagara Falls. It's kind of quirky and funny. Inanimate objects start talking to her, telling her to do things, and the results are always kind of ironic.

Hubby and I watched it and thought it was great. I thought her desription of the show in a commerical as "touched by an angle on acid" fairly acurate.

My husband compared it to Joan of Arcadia. The premise is somewhat similar.

Just a reminder for those still interested: Wonderfalls has moved to 9:00 on Thursdays (opposite CSI and The Apprentice) so don't forget to program your Tivos or set your VCRs!

I watched it... not bad. I thought the girl was pretty funny.


Particularly the part where she told her friend that the wax lion was talking to her, and the friend says, "Um, does the wax lion ever tell you to burn things or hurt people?"

I watched it and really liked it. I love Joan of Arcadia and was curious to see how this compared to it. I was pleasantly surprised.

Another reason to stay home on Friday nights.


As if I had anything better to do.

I thought the writing of the show was pretty damn good.

"I'm sorry - did you just say 'My a$$'?"
hehehehe

Never seen "Joan of Arcadia"...but I'm guessing she wouldn't say 'a$$'. heheheh

I think this show is a much better option then what's played on the WB currently.

I wasn't going to watch it, and then I saw a commercial where they showed that bartender guy (hottie!) Plus it was on right after Playing it Straight, so I watched. It seemed pretty good and I will probably watch again this week.

I finally caught up with Wonderfalls for its encore presentation last night. I liked it but it didn't seem to have the emotional core that Joan has, so it didn't resonate with me quite as much.

Everything I've heard about it has been good though, and the loser who writes for EW magazine (Ken Tucker) gave it an A-.
(I call him a loser because he prejudged Joan as being to "God-y" and only initially gave Joan a C+) Fortunately, Wonderfalls made him reevaluate Joan too and now they're both ranked highly.

Anyway. Have to remind myself this is not a thread about Joan!! Looking forward to seeing where Wondefalls goes. I definitely like that it has a sharper edge than Joan (drinking, language). It's nice to have SOMETHING to distinguish the two from each other!

I saw it last night and I liked it. Really like the sarcastic, smart-##### comments she makes. I'll watch it again.

I just saw the movie "Soldiers Girl" and was surprised to find out that the guy who plays the crossdresser in the movie is the same guy who plays Jaye's brother on Wonderfalls. I would have never recognized him!

I was going to post pics, but my stoopid dial up is being veeery slow tonight.

10. "RE: Wonderfalls on FOX"
Did you all watch WF last night? At the end of the episode, the voiceover said to make sure to tune in to next week's episode on Thursday after Tru Calling-- against a NEW CSI. Who knows what Fox is thinking?? Friday nights (after Joan) were perfect for this show, but jamming it into to a crowded Thursday night lineup will be a death knell-- especially with Tru Calling as its lead in.

I read on TV Tome that the reason they're doing this is because the Thursday pilot rebroadcast did better than expected or better than the original had. Hello? Against March Madness, not against new CSIs. Didn't FOX learn from their mistake with Tru Calling? There is no other network on Thursday nights besides CBS and NBC. Everything else disappears!

I still like Joan better than Wonderfalls-- more cohesion to the storylines in general-- but I'm going to be mad at FOX if they blow this one. It isn't every season that gives us good tv on a Friday.

I know!
When I heard that I yelled out loud "NO!" I LIKED this show on Friday nights...never found anything good to watch on Fridays...and since my hubby and I are boring people and stay in on the weekends...I liked watching WF with a glass of wine.

ah well - I'll still watch it on Friday nights...I'll just Tivo it.

Gotta love Tivo, right?! I guess it's best not to get too attached to this one, though. TV Guide's Watercooler discussion today mentions that Fox network or show producers are sending out notes to get tv critics to watch. The show seems doomed... our tivos will be so empty Friday nights.

un-f-ing-believable. I can't believe they cancelled it! This, in my opinion, was one of the best shows shown on Fox!!

Oh no, Dewey. Surely you don't mean better than such shows as Forever Eden and The Swan, right?

Wonderfalls could never compete with those. I mean, really. A clever show with originality, a quirky spirit and intelligence? What was FOX thinking to EVER greenlight such a stupid idea?

un-f-ing-believable is right. Damn Fox; how long can we take this?

I ALMOST find it laughable that they canceled this. It's so ludicrous it's almost funny. I have NO faith anymore.

But what does FOX care? They're busy appealing to the lowest common denominator. (No offense to Eden or Swan watchers meant, of course, but this is a downright silly decision!)

Ok - i admit to watching The Swan last night (but that's another post) but I had American Idol on (with the volumn turned down low) while I was reading waiting for The Swan to come on. (yeah - don't ask.)

American Idol is such a work of crap! All those stupid "promos" and ads for all their sponsors...this needs to get off the air - NOW!

Okay,
I'll confess to seeing 2/3 of The Swan, but literally only because hubby dragged me into it. He's not quite the feminist I am and so wanted to check out the show (The horror, The horror).

Wonderfalls is a show people could watch. The Swan is a rubberneck-fest!
