So the big news tonight is that CBS just announced yesterday that
Swingtown creator
Mike Kelley inked a
two-year development deal with the network. First up, he's developing a series for Showtime titled
BiCoastal, about a man who has a wife in Los Angeles and who starts a relationship with a man in New York.
So what does all this mean for
Swingtown? Hard to say really. A pessimist might think Kelley's new gig means the end of
Swingtown; an optimist might say that CBS isn't going to give the guy a deal and then cancel his show. I choose optimism: After all, couldn't Kelley's new relationship with Showtime mean his saucy swingers might be planning a move to cable? With its issues of sexual identity and freedom, it might make a natural partner for
BiCoastal, no?
As cliff-hangers go, tonight's season finale upped the ante in terms of sexual jeopardy. For possibly the first time on this show, the partner-swapping that occurred did so accompanied by significant emotional attachments.
More to come...
