Wonderful news about Wonderfalls.

TV After Dead Like Me but before Pushing Daisies, Hannibal and the good episodes of Heroes, , Bryan Fuller produced the hopelessly cancelled Wonderfalls, about as the Wikipedia helpfully synopsises: "Jaye Tyler (Caroline Dhavernas), a recent Brown University graduate with a philosophy degree, who holds a dead-end job as a sales clerk at a Niagara Falls gift shop. Jaye is the reluctant participant in conversations with various animal figurines — a wax lion, brass monkey, stuffed bear, and mounted fish, among others — which direct her via oblique instructions to help people in need".

Released on dvd in the US in 2005 and soon deleted and as far as I know never shown in the UK, it's a surprising pleasure to discover that someone's seen fit, presumably on the back of the Hannibal interest, to released it on R2 finally at the end of next month. Here's the cover. Possibly:



Doctor Who's s7 means my pennies are spoken for that month (not to mention the suspiciously moved The Tenth Planet), but Lovefilm will have Wonderfalls available for rental.
