The only stuff I know about Manimal is from Brad Jone's top ten list of it. I don't understand why this show is considered terrible or why it flopped so horribly and is considered an embarrassing joke. Detective uses his power to assume the form of any animal he wants goes out and fights crime. That, IMO, sounds like a pretty fun concept to me. Did it just fail in execution or something? His favorite form, if I recall, as the panther...so it's not like he became a dung beetle or sea slug or some other silly sounding useless animal. Being able to turn into a panther sounds pretty bad ass to me. What exactly was the deal? Get this as far away from Farrell as possible. I want someone to do this series some justice. i actually like Will Farrell, but yeah this. I keep thinking about that Green Hornet movie from 2011 with Seth Rogen. i can see a Manimal movie making the same mistake as that one, trying to force a comedian into an action hero role. That doesn't work even in theory. as for who should get the role, i know it's an out there choice but i'll go with Benedict Cumberbatch.

I really can only take Will Ferrell in short bursts, that's why I preferred him on SNL. Sitting through almost any of his movies raises my irritation levels to the roof.
