I recently rewatched the single, short season of Wonder Falls which we have on DvD. This was a charming show from 2004 that was cancelled early in its run (like many of the series we liked best - but listing them all would not make this a short post). The series follows the young woman, Jaye, who develops psychic powers tied to conversations she has with inanimate objects shaped like animals (stuffed bears, lawn flamingos, monkey figurines, a cow shaped creamer). For such a short run they develop a number of very entertaining story arcs with Jaye, her family, friend Mahandra, and love interest, Eric. Caroline Dhavernas hits the right notes in her role as the quirky main character, and she is very easy on the eyes, as my father would say. Although the show was cancelled early, they knew it was coming and the main story threads are wrapped up in a satisfactory way. I am curious about what ideas the writers would have had for season two. I do recommend that you watch this series when you are in the mood to be entertained.
