Hidden Palms
Something new and shiny coming to the CW on Tuesday nights for the summer… Hidden Palms. Trying very hard not to pass judgment until I get a few episodes under my belt and I am just relieved there will be something fresh on (other than Friday Night Smackdown).
I think the show is going for southern California with hidden depth and pale shades of David Lynch (perhaps). Johnny, our protagonist, is a 16yr old of rehab and with his family trying to start a fresh in Palm Springs. Looks like there will be a whole rota of troubled souls that pass the way of our Johnny, and there is the underlying mystery to be solved. Add a straight talking drag queen - who serves as Johnny’s AA sponsor - to the mix and it can’t all be bad!
