Good morning your royal majesty, I hope your holiness had a good night. My lordship, I have doubts about this series. Over-the-top fantasies rarely work with the exception of Heroes. Even though it's being treated as a comedy I don't think people will be in the mood after work for a show essentially about Satan. It's too cynical to succeed. Your emminent lordship King Pierce, I submit the reason Heroes succeeded is because it is an upbeat positive fantasy about kids with superpowers. Remember how the original Fantasy Island with positive tone succeeded while the darker incarnernation failed miserably. I see the same fate my lord with this show.
