Carnivale

Well, I just remembered about a TV show i used to watch.Carnivale, it was a great show about good versus evil set in 1930's dust bowl setting during the depression era.The character depth was good,the hero became a champion of light very reluctantly and the bad guy was good at the beginning but he couldn't outrun his destiny to be the usher of destruction ie the Avatar of Darkness.Freaky characters, mysterious deus ex machina, epic storyline.Even the roles of seemingly minor characters was planned for growth at the beginning.But like all the great cult shows it got cancelled after two seasons because of ratings have fallen.So goes to purgatory along with Twin Peaks,American Gothic etc.It's my kind of show.It was said that this show was for people who thought that Twin Peaks was too accessible.Well actually I found this show and Twin Peaks too accessible,so more the power to me!!!!!!!!

Well you should check it out, here is a trailer for you

Twin Peaks

Watched an old tv series from the 90s called twin peaks.It is directed by my favorite director,David Lynch.Its about a small town where nothing is as it seems and there is some sort of hidden evil in the woods surrounding the town.But the greatest part in the series are the dreams of the hero Agent Cooper which are really weird,surreal and Lovecraftian.Basically speaking my type of series but of course like all good things it came to an end with a cliffhanger ending and they came out with a prequel and sequel combined kind of movie called Fire walk with me but it provided no resolution.So it goes into the same purgatory as carnivale which i am watching right now,which also ends in a cliffhanger without a final solution provided.

The following is a trailer of that great and weird show!!!!!
