TV Alert: Wonderfalls
Do not miss this show, it is brilliant. It starts tonight on Sky One at 9pm and it is one of the best shows I have seen for ages. It's a funny, quirky & delightful Canadian show that ran for 4 episodes until Fox TV pulled the plug but in total there are 13 episodes if I remember rightly.
Another good thing is that the lead character Jaye Tyler played by Caroline Dhavernas is so damn adorable

It's all about quality rather than quantity  Two other shows only have 13 episodes per season and those are The Sopranos & The Shield, two great quality shows.

No, as I mentioned before it was cancelled by Fox. The producers did have scripts for a second series and from what I've read it sounded like it would get even better.

Re: TV Alert: Wonderfalls
Are Sky Showing all 13? Maybe if it is a success on Sky then it may be commissioned for the 2nd run

I can't believe that Sky would only show the first 4 episodes, let's hope not anyway. However, no chance of a 2nd series though.

Re: TV Alert: Wonderfalls
Meh, It was ok. The talking thing was as corny as it could well have been but hopefully they dont take up a lot of the time?

That's the whole premise of the show...
Set against the backdrop of Niagara Falls, Wonderfalls is a quirky one-hour family dramedy about an underachieving twenty-something souvenir shop worker named Jaye Tyler. Her life is forever changed when inanimate figures †“ including toys, cartoons and anything in the form of an animal, begin to talk to her. In each episode, the creatures' cryptic messages set into motion a chain of unpredictable events that invariably lead Jaye into the lives of others in need.
Throughout the series' bizarre situations and madcap adventures, Jaye seeks advice from her best buddy Mahandra and befriends Eric, a local bartender who tries to help answer her unrequited questions. Is the universe conspiring against her? Is this real or just her imagination? Should she struggle with fate or surrender to destiny? Whatever the outcome one thing is for certain - Jaye will discover that the world around her is a magical place and that the seemingly random events in her life are actually all part of something much greater
