Nah-quisitions

Taking a look at upcoming TV on DVD releases, here are some things that piqued my interest yet won't be entering my DVD collection any time soon:

Tin Man - a re-envisioning of the Wizard of Oz, starring Zooey Deschanel, Alan Cumming, and Richard Dreyfuss. I think I've heard good things about it, but I don't really remember.

Tim And Eric Awesome Show, Great Job - the first live-action original Adult Swim programme is an utter mind trip... maybe not even funny, but an assault on the brain like those seizure inducing Japanese programmes.

5 Days - an HBO/BBC co-production, like a melding of 24 with whatever that child abduction show is... it's five episodes each spanning one 24-hour period on various days during a missing person's case. Sounds quite intriguing.

John From Cincinnati - may not be WKRP, but Toasty really liked this show.

Starlost - now, most sci-fi television from the 1970's remains unwatchable, but this series, spearheaded by ingenious and notorious cranky old man Harlan Ellison *might* actually be worth looking at... even though it is Canadian.

Robot Chicken: Star Wars - watched it on youTube months ago and was rather disappointed not to find it in the Season 2 set... it smells of a cash grab, especially for $15 bucks.
