No, not that movie with Denzel Washington and John Goodman...
"Fallen" is a made-for-TV (movie? series? Information is scattered and strange) that is Dawson's Creek meets Spawn. Yeah, but with a half-angel instead of a half-demon.
No. Seriously. No really, I wasn't drinking.
A young sensitive (presumably hot) male who has kicked around foster homes for years finds out that he is half angel, and now his daddy wants to see him.
As I watched the promo, I kept waiting for Chevy Chase to poke his head in and say "Just kidding!". As it kept going with no Chase appearance, I started shaking my head in disbelief. By the end I was snorting with barely-contained laughter.
Please, SOMEONE find some reliable info on this besides [url]http://imdb.com/title/tt0775362/[/url]?

| Sounds like somebody is trying to recapture the "Touched by an Angel" demographic. |

| I thought was going to be about Jimmy Fallen, and my reaction was, "This isn't news." Then I remembered he spells his name with an "o." |

Airs on ABC Family on July 23rd.
quote: In "Fallen," Tom Skerritt plays Zeke, a fallen angel, whose wings have been clipped and whose hopes of readmittance into the celestial ranks hang on a teenager with a cluttered adolescent agenda of wrestling practice, college applications and burgeoning romance.
Paul Wesley is Aaron Corbett, an adopted high-school senior who discovers on his 18th birthday that he can talk to his dog and stop time. It turns out that he is really a Nephilim, that is, the half-breed offspring of a fallen angel – the one foretold by ancient prophecies who will redeem the fallen and return them to their former splendor.
He learns of his wondrous heritage from Zeke, who has waited through the ages to be reinstated, and has now taken the form of a hobo. It seems there is a dispute among the loyal heavenly hosts about the Nephilim problem. Some, like the self-righteous Verchiel (Lisa Lackey), want to exterminate the "abominations." Others, like Camael (Rick Worthy), who had once hunted them down relentlessly, have sworn to protect Aaron.
