Looks yummy as usual. He has such a voice!

There HAS been a delay in pre-production. Now before the 'HaHa! I told you so!' brigade starts planning a Glass is Half Empty party, it's worth saying that the mini has to hit a specific timing slot for the financiers - who make several minis a year. With the final people not signing off on the script until just too late, it now looks as if it'll have to be moved to one of the next slots in the schedule. In short, it's missed 'Summer' and will now probably go ahead in the 'Fall'. I chatted with David Abramowitz yesterday and he's still very optimistic the mini WILL be going ahead as everyone HAS now signed off on the script... it's just a fiscal thing. Think the big industry version of a tax year :) No doubt some will revel in this news. The rest of us will cross our fingers that its just a rather typical hiccup.

I appreciate you telling us about this.

Surprise, surprise, surprise. >Now before the 'HaHa! I told you > so!' brigade starts planning a Glass is Half Empty party _What_ glass? But, OK, accepting your simplistic notion for a bit.... Highlander: The Series was, for the most part... a tall, ice-cold, fresh glass of whole milk. Rich & yummy _chocolate_ milk, even. Served up in sparkling crystal. Free refills. Until season 6, when that was abruptly switched to skim milk (served in the carton). Then, we got HL: Raven--powdered milk (sloppily poured into flimsy paper cups). Endgame arrived, & the milk had decidedly curdled; rumor was--the cow had died. To date, the purported HL mini-series--delayed yet again in pre-production--doesn't consitute "a glass" of any type. It isn't anything at all, other than a possibility. Lots of those out there, good & bad.
