I just received my payment form from the DS Fest folks and there's a little piece about Dan Curtis saying that DS series might be in the works for 2004.
California is a beautiful state with many beautiful houses but I for one hope if this thing comes to pass, that he will consider going back east for filming. There's just something about New England that is so intriguing and the west coast just can't measure up (and this is from a die-hard mid-westerner!).
