That Munsters Remake Is Both Dead and Not Dead

Remember how Bryan Fuller’s Munsters remake series, Mockingbird Lane, was supposedly canceled? And then Fuller said it wasn’t? Turns out everybody was right.  The show will not go to series, but will be re-edited into a TV movie set to premiere on Friday, October 26th.

I’m more excited to see how fucked up Mockingbird is more than crushed at the fact it won’t be a series, although given how much I love Fuller’s other shows, I imagine I’ll be crushed after I’ve finally seen it. If nothing else, I’m interested to see how NBC spent $10 million on a show pilot they didn’t want. Well, I know how — NBC is run by morons. I just want to see their stupidity in action. (Via THR)
