Glorioski! HBO tries to make up with me.

I will never forgive HBO for the whole Deadwood business. You take a show that is not simply the perfect marriage of art and entertainment, a show for which I would lay down before a wild horse in the throughfare, and not only do you cancel it, but you fuck with and generally try the emotions of it's fans and admirers by dicking around in a mindless fashion about if you are going to do follow up movies to finish the story.

You are dead to me HBO, you and Joss Weidon, dead.

Except HBO is trying to make it up to me by buying the rights to produce George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire and produce it as a show, not a mini-series.
This is confirmed folks, not a rumour.

Needless to say I am worried about the casting.

I don't know what Glorioski means and you can't make me learn it.

However, I found this bit of info: Alan Pergament's report concerning the current status of the movies, reporting that at the TCA meeting, David Milch said, "We have contracts, we have the set, we're doing the script."

Not entirely true? Don't know... but I still have my hopes up.

Unfortunately, I can't find much w.r.t. a Carnivale ressurection... which is equally unfortunate.

Love, Nick
