Syfy adds Stephen King TV series supposedly based on 'The Colorado Kid'
Novelist Stephen King is getting back into the television game, though this latest project has us scratching our heads.
Syfy has picked up 13 episodes of an original series, "Haven," purportedly based on King's novella "The Colorado Kid."
The thing is, "The Colorado Kid" is about a young journalist who is told the story of a mysterious corpse, a man from Colorado who shows up in Maine in record time.
Here's how the Syfy release describes "Haven":
"Deep in the heart of Maine, Haven is a town where people with supernatural abilities have migrated for generations because it mutes their powers, allowing them to lead normal lives. At least, until recently. When hot-shot FBI agent Audrey Parker is called to Haven to solve the murder of a local ex-con, she catches the killer but uncovers a much deeper mystery about this town. Each week, as the town-peoples' dormant powers begin to express themselves, Audrey will try to keep these supernatural forces at bay while unraveling the many mysteries of Haven - including one surrounding her own surprising past in this extraordinary place." ...
....The series is set to begin production in early 2010 and air later that year.

Back when they were the Sci Fi channel, they had one good show.
Now they have no good shows.

It's a trendy thing. They're trying to shed their geeky image, which I never thought they had in the first place. And, so they could expand their offerings to include more fantasy content.

And wrestling.
And bad cartoons that were rejected from USA Network.
And that "Ghost Hunter" stuff, which is less "fantasy" than "raw sewage."

Agree! I could walk around with a night-vision enables camera and shoot scary footage too.
Maybe I should make a TV show...
