” Zombies are moaning and shuffling their way onto the airwaves, and no, it’s not in another season of MASTERS OF HORROR. Nor is it the long-rumored HBO adaptation of Robert Kirkman’s THE WALKING DEAD (which this writer is chomping at the bit for). Rather, the undead are the focus of a new hour-long 20th Century Fox Television and CBS “dramedy” entitled BABYLON FIELDS. Michael (L.I.E.) Cuesta is taking the reins, following his damn impressive work on Showtime’s DEXTER; Gerald Cuesta and Michael Atkinson are on writing duties.
The premise has the dead returning to life literally and figuratively as they ingratiate themselves back into society and relationships; inevitable drama and, um, comedy ensues. But let us ask you: Does this at all sound familiar? It should. The quiet French film LES REVENANTS (a.k.a. THEY CAME BACK)—which we last told you about here—made three years ago and released on U.S. DVD in 2005, posed the same bittersweet predicament: What if those deceased family and friends you once knew re-entered your life? The film was up for remake grabs, but after a little digging, Fango learned that the task was fruitless and the powers that be decided the scenario was best left for episodic television.”
BABYLON FIELDS is moving toward a 2007-2008 season debut; more updates as they arrive. —Ryan Rotten
Well…yeah. I can go ahead and say that I’m hella freaking excited about this - with reservations. For one, how much does it suck that Robert Kirkman’s bleak epic THE WALKING DEAD isn’t doing this first? It is, in my mind, the only on-going zombie story that would lend itself well to an episodic, adult narrative. As far as tales about living corpses go, it’s pretty much the only game in town. The Walking Dead is the reason numero uno why I desperately long for Robert Kirkman to impregnate me with a giant butt baby.
A new issue came out just today, so it’s weird that I found this news. Zombiatic Synchronicity!
However, Babylon Fields seems to be shooting for a more comedic approach…which could be pretty cool too. I mean, Shaun of the Dead is my all-time favorite zombie flick (it constantly battles for that illustrious title with Dawn of the Dead 2K4 ), so I can totally get on board with that angle. HOWEVER AGAIN, this is network television, so it may be far too cheesy to abide…hrm. I must consider this.
Either way, I’m definitely gonna check it out once it hits. It stars that Amber Tamblyn chick (from Joan of Arcadia) and Ray Stevenson (from ROME) :

Okay…seriously, Internet. Leave me alone. I’m busy as shit and can’t go get food until a certain percentage of my bullcrap is done.

Anywhoo, I got mah hurr cut yesterday:

It always does that dollop thing up in front. Sometimes I can make it work for me and sometimes I can’t. The cool thing about being in a long-term monogamous relationship, however, is that my girlfriend MUST love me no matter how ridiculous I look! It’s an envelope I routinely push.

While we freely admit that we probably should not be watching it until one o’ clock in the morning…we make no apologies outside of that. Crazy shit happens, man. CRAZY SHIT.
We also wish we were Canadian.
BONUS: In later years, the show has lesbians.
Now it’s time for bed.

Sphere: Related ContentI can’t tell if things are fine. Things SEEM to be alright…I mean, here I am in the update dialog of a fresh Wordpress install on tekalpha ’s Dreamhost space…no MySql errors. Images are loading. I’m blogging without wanting to die.
Everything SEEMS to be running smoothly…but, you know, I just don’t trust it. I’ve been trained to be wary of the demon boxes that house your hue-mann internets. Years of dodging technological crises after technological crises have taught me to be careful with my energies in this regard…because I tend to get excited about shit and issue praise too quickly. It’s what makes me a good fanboy. That specific principal has actually been a problem of mine since some 19 inches ago, back when I was a wee lad sporting a size 29 waist. I remember composing a an oh-so-deep write-up on the topic in an old paper journal about 4.7 trillion years ago…I still got it. Maybe I should scan the fucker and and share it with you people. This will never happen.
Anyway, yeah. Aside from a Flickr plugin not transferring correctly, things are cool over here…so far. I seriously need to stress that. I still fully expect some ridiculous problem that no one could have possibly foreseen. If things end up running true-to-form, then the crises du-jour should be hitting sometime in the next seven planetary cycles. Just to fuck with me it may come in eight…either way, I’ll keep you posted. Because I’m the goddamn Post Master. Because I’m addicted to posting! Is that “:)” or “:(”? Who cares! Wheee!!!!!!!!
Of note: IN 174 DAYS I WILL BE THIRTY YEARS OLD. I ain’t bald yet, either. Good times there.
Need to do something about that cut, however. Gabby don’t like it all slicked back.
