Quotes:

Francis Hunter: Put some fresh coffee on, it'll be ready in a minute.
Roxy Hunter: I think I wanna go to Pamela's, there must be a reason why I was sleep walking to her house.
Francis Hunter: She's a witch, she cast a spell on you!
Roxy Hunter: Why would she do that?
Francis Hunter: Spite! She's jealous!
Roxy Hunter: Of what? All our money, the furniture? Maybe she could help.
Francis Hunter: Let me be the one to help you.
Roxy Hunter: I know you want to help me but you can't just kiss me and make it better. Not this time.
Francis Hunter: Oh, I can try!
Roxy Hunter: Let me see her, please. Please!

A bit campy, but a good campy....great show

I started watching the show PARADISE FALLS because of the actors and actresses that I noticed from other shows like MUTANT X and EARTH: FINAL CONFLICT. It is on the HERE-TV network in this city and I was hooked from the first episode(and the guy who plays Michael's butt).

It has the feel of MELROSE PLACE with some magic and thrown in and better dialog. Though it is on a gay and lesbian-based channel, there is nothing stereotypically gay about the show. It has a compelling cast, beautiful women, hot guys(who aren't shy about showing their goods) and stories that can't be shown and haven't been shown on TV in the states.

I would say more......but that would be telling. if you have satellite, check out HERE-TV and watch the show. Trust me there is nothing "gay" about the show-not that gay is bad-anyway, watch it you'll like it....Later.
