I enjoyed Daybreak.
ETA: Kidnapped - like Journeyman on NBC - didn't get much of a chance and did get a dvd release.
I don't know what company produced Kidnapped.
Don't you have an elsewhere to be?

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
le nubian, I'll have to take your word for it. I didn't make it past the second episode.
Kevin, we know the cost per ep on Dollhouse? Really? Isn't any estimates on that premature?
I would like to think that Fox learned its lesson about Firefly, but I guess I could be wrong.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I really like how Daybreak worked around the obvious pitfalls of doing the same day over and over again. I stopped watching Prison Break because I didn't see how they were going to keep up. Well, and also because Wenty wasn't as naked as I'd have liked.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Poor guy has to either live with long sleeves in a hot climate or spend hours in makeup getting tattoos applied. They should've run to Canada.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Tamara, the proposed license fee for Dollhouse was in the Variety announcement. I think. One of them, anyway.
ETA: That said I like to think FOX won't touch it inappropriately.

You don't have a link to that somewhere do you, Kevin? I can't find it on their site. I find the announcement and many mentions but not a license fee.
Nevermind. I found it. It was EW not Variety.
Is that really higher than Firefly?

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Firefly was circa $1.3m I believe. I *think* EW have lifted that figure from an interview with JW elsewhere and got it wrong. Unless I'm wrong.

I just found a Variety mention of that same $1.3M for Firefly and yet another mention of Dollhouse being $1.5M to $2.0M at THR.
So higher, but not twice as high. Seems about right five plus years later.

I believe that's actually on the low side for a 1 hour drama.

Or just get the freaking tattoos and have done with it.
