Look what’s coming to Court TV.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Court TV becomes “cult TV” as writer\/director John Waters (Hairspray, Serial Mom) takes the starring role in an irreverent new series that shows how love and marriage, in the words of the underground auteur himself, “goes together like a horse and the glue factory.” With a tip of the veil (both wedding and funeral) to some of television’s most famous scripted mystery and murder anthologies, each episode features the fabled director introducing us to a husband and wife whose marriage, despite its happy beginnings, inevitably leads to spousal murder.<\/a> Posing as the wisecracking, cynical “Groom Reaper,” Waters appears at several pivotal moments of the disintegrating relationship to guide the audience through its darkly hilarious twists. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It is so true. You live long enough, you get to see ideas re-hashed over and over and over ad nauseum. There’s a first episode comic preview at Court TV<\/a>. The flash comic viewer for it is pretty spiffy. Even though they get the word balloons screwed up in lots of places.<\/p>\n

I’m not watching it. I’m just in weird of it.<\/p>\n
