Wait, Alfonso Cuarón created a TV show and no one told me about it?! Well I’m just going to have to check this out posthaste!
Huh.
Okay, so that wasn’t terribly impressive.
There’s a girl with psychic powers and the forces of evil want her and for some reason the only one who can protect her is a death row inmate (he’s innocent, of course), and Delroy Lindo yadda yadda yadda it all looks pretty rote. | Full Story
