Isn't ABC already developing a new series based on Philip Marlowe?
What's with the sudden renewed interest in Philip Marlowe? I guess everybody feels Mike Hammer has been done to death, so Marlowe is a viable alternative.
Frankly, I think these will only work as period pieces. No phony baloney updating with Marlowe driving a PT Cruiser and typing clues into a Blackberry.
