Telly Alert. #005:

Carnivale (HBO, 12-episode run premiering Sunday, September 14th, 9:30 p.m.)



Starting this week, HBO will air the "making of" featurette for this new series.

Here's an excerpt from the show's description:

"1934. The Dust Bowl. The last great age of magic. In a time of titanic sandstorms, drought and pestilence - all signs of God's fury and harbingers of the Apocalypse - the final conflict between good and evil is about to begin. The battle will take place in the Heartland of an empire called America. And when it is over, man will forever trade away wonder for reason."

A roving carnival, apocalyptic battles between good vs. evil, and that little guy from the Twin Peaks Red Room. This should fill the post-The Wire 2.0, pre-The Sopranos 5.0/Curb Your Enthusiam 4.0 void quite nicely.
