Current Talk '03 II / Re:Thoughts on a new DS and the '91 series
« on: December 04, 2003, 03:28:28 AM »Judging by the rest of the WB's shows, I'd venture a guess that the new series will be ... a mostly-youthful cast of early 20-somethings.
Be afraid, be very afraid.
Hmmm - I wonder if the developers might be able to come up with a way for Liz and Carolyn to be around the same age?
But kidding aside, not all of the WB's series showcase a cast comprised mostly of early 20-somethings and stories that only deal with their trials and tribulations of coming of age. The focus of Gilmore Girls is equally balanced between Lorelai (the 30s-ish mom) and Rory (her teenaged daughter). Everwood is pretty balanced between Andy (the 40s-ish (YES! 40S-ISH!!) doctor) and Ephram (his teenaged son) and their interactions with their friends/foes. And (last season aside when the cast included his teenaged son) Angel's cast features late-20s-to-early-30s characters and deals with extremely adult themes. If a new WB DS were to be similarly balanced, it could be something quite interesting and enjoyable as well as comparable to the original...
