This should be made into a movie...true?

I wish!

Paul Haggis used to say he wanted to "revist it" with a movie or book but now says he no longer does. :(

I wonder why...I couldn't let this go if I created it, I would want an ending!

He said it's just part of his "perverse nature."

I just think he's bitter it was cancelled. Understandably.

it's been way too long for ez streets to come back now, CBS destroyed that series and they should just let it rest.. ez streets's spiritual successor, the black donnellys will be on NBC early next year though. There's no Joey Pants in it but the pilot was amazing.

Whenever I win that gazillion dollar lottery, I've always told myself that I would pay a couple million (lunch money) to have everyone back to film a fitting finish to this great show.

Guess I better buy a ticket someday.....

Here's what he said:
"The show was pitched to CBS, "very badly," admits Haggis. Despite the fact that it was a very dark, mob-oriented show, CBS Entertainment head Les Moonves bought the pilot three days later. The show was received as a critical success, and earned a small and loyal fan following, but the Nielsen numbers were never good enough. Cancellation came after the sporadic airing of just 10 episodes. Fans often wonder what became of Quinn and the other characters, and Haggis has resolved that issue, but it is not for public distribution. He won't tell a soul, humorously quipping that "it's just my perverse nature" not to divulge the end of the series."

I remember reading interviews with him 2-3 years after 'EZ Streets' went off the air and he seemed gung-ho about wrapping it up for its fans who he said he heard from all the time.
