Seems like 2008 was the year of the vampire and 2009 might be the year of the werewolf. Fox has announced a new dramedy (drama comedy) series titled “Bitches” that revolves around the lives of 4 New York women who are normal friends by day and a pack of werewolves by night.
Some fairly big names are attached to the series including feature writer Michael Dougherty of X2 and Superman Returns fame. Calling a show Bitches and having it be about women who turn into werewolves at a certain time of the month.. hmm.. bet the feminists are going to have a ball with this one. At present it’s pre-pilot by the sounds of it, so who knows if it will ever make it to screens.
I don’t know how I feel about this. I love werewolves but I don’t want to see them ruined like vampires. Only more so because there are very few werewolf or werecat movies by comparison and so many of those are terrible.
I can see where this has potential for some “sex in the city meets werewolf” (the later of which I have good memories of, though that was 20 years ago … I hate to imagine what I’d think of it these days)
