Variety in 60 seconds: sexy models, scary TV

  • Watch the Skies on TCMThis ought to be interesting: on July 5th, TCM will air Watch the Skies, a documentary about science fiction films. It'll be narrated by the Star Wars original himself, Mark Hamill.
  • Ahh, more models. VH1 just grabbed The Agency, which began taping Monday, and shows up on our tubes in 2006. The premise? Wilhelmina booking agents face the curious realities of the fashion world. Hmm. Fascinating.
  • The new scary: Amityville Horror for TV. Called Bound, the nightmare series is about a family that moves into a haunted house. The show is handled by The Ring's production company, so maybe it will actually be kind of/sort of scary, but we're dubious as it's billed as a "family show."
  • ABC's show Dancing with the Stars hit top ratings with 15 million viewers on Wednesday. The reality show is about...umm...dancing.

Dancing/Stars fails my primary test for audience participation reality shows because they never explain the scoring. They just say "the audience vote is combined with the judges scores", which is shorthand for "We will get rid of whoever we choose." Going into the first voteoff, neither of the bottom two candidates were kicked.
