Preview: Raines
In the US: NBC, midseason.
In the UK: Acquired by ITV3, with a later pick-up by ITV1
When I first heard about Raines, I wasn’t impressed. A detective that can talk to dead people? Just how derivative can you get? Like we need another Medium or Ghost Whisperer.
Turns out that while Raines (Jeff Goldblum) can talk to dead people, it’s not because he’s psychic. It’s cos he’s just a little bit nuts and has a very vivid imagination.

Set the video: The Champions
They don’t make them like The Champions any more. A classic ITC show from the 60s, it featured three agents of the international ‘Nemesis’ organisation travelling around the world fighting dastardly evil-doers. And good old ITV4 is repeating it again, starting at 6pm tonight.
What lifted The Champions out of the ordinary and made it just so fun to watch was its premise. You’ll need to being sitting down for this one.
Our three heroes’ plane crash-lands in Tibet during the first episode. On the point of death, they get rescued by a lost civilisation, which saves their lives. But their rescuers do more. They ‘enhance’ them to the limit of human abilities. They make them as smart as Einstein, as strong as Olympic champions, able to hear the slightest sound, see in the dark and more; they even get a form of shared ESP.
I told you you’d need to be sitting down for it.
An online martial arts TV station
Ooh. Martial Arts TV. Bit limited at the moment, and if you’re on a Mac, you may need to use the full-screen player since the embedded one didn’t seem to work, but it shows promise, at least.
Live-action Pratchett on the way
While we were all looking in the opposite direction, Sky has been quietly filming Terry Pratchett’s Hogfather. Starring David Jason, Nigel Planer, Ian Richardson and Marc Warren, the two-part adaptation is likely to air just before Christmas week. The producers have the option to adapt other Pratchett novels, including The Colour of Magic.
