What do you think? Are you a fan of the film? Would you watch a TV series adaptation?
Never heard of the movie, but does not sound that interesting.
Kamramna has it spot on, watched about 15 minutes of the movie, gawd was it ever boring. A blank TV screen was a huge improvement.
Oh Vicki, Vicki
Waste of time and money … I saw the movie, wish I hadn’t. Let this movie go off quietly into oblivion, please. A series based on the movie (or book) would flopp quicker than a wino with a brand new bottle … My opinion, thanks …
