Does
anyone out there want to protest that the TV series Millennium
was shut down? Created by X-File's Chris Carter. The TV show
revolved around Frank Black. A profiler who got too involved
in a case and had to quit the force (FBI). Then was recruited
by the Millennium Group to fight evil because they recognized
that he was psychic not just your average police profiler. It
was the classic Christian good vs. evil theme and was great
on Friday nights. And although Lance Henrick (lead character
actor) is getting up there in years, his voice is like wine,
and his facial expressions are classic hunk stuff. Come back
Lance - we don't care if it a smaltzy sit-com, just let us hear
you say something. (*After I wrote this he did come back in
Scream 3) True, the story line became a tad overdone toward
the end, but that could have been saved in one episode.
Chris Carter, you should have hired a legitimate psychic with
experience in profiling to help the writing staff. Too bad it
was yanked, it was entertaining if nothing else. Toward the
end of the series very little actual psychic education value
was evident. Is this just a sad reminder that writers ought
to do their research a little better - or at least glean it
from the real source - a real psychic and spiritualist? I don't
know Mr. Carter, but next time around try it - you might like
it. Throw in some aliens once in a while and perhaps The Space
network will pick it up. Chris - we'd watch it!
