Wanna see something really scary?
Check out this list of pilots in production for the 2004/2005 TV season. Don't say I didn't warn you.
I'm particularly unhappy about the dearth of genre shows coming down the pipe. Somehow I don't think either "Fly Girls" or yet another series about a person who can interact with the dead in a low-budget sort of way are going to satisfy. Say, didn't Whedon have a development deal with Fox once upon a time?
"Lost" sounds interesting, if they can take it beyond the first level of "Lord of the Flies." Though it looks like "Eden" may be the same story with a younger cast. The rest of it looks like sitcoms, hand-wringy dramas, and police procedurals all the way. Remember when networks made risky (if flawed) shows like "John Doe?"
