Sounds like a little “Twin Peaks”-ish to me….if it’s even only half as good, this will be a keeper!
Sounds nothing at all like The Colorado Kid, which is a good thing because that book was terrible.
The Colorado Kid wasn’t horrible, it just definitely not worth of stretching out into a tv series. Plus, if i recall correctly she wasn’t an FBI agent, she was working for a newspaper and she didn’t come to solve a murder, she just happened to be told the story of an unsolved murder by one of the old dudes that worked there. But that premise sounds way better even though it pretty much has nothing to do with the book except the name of the girl.
Why can’t they just say in the press release the other 2 countries not allowed to have same name of SYFY, but carry most shows will also be getting the show>?!
