Wonderfalls (2004)
8/10
Bryan Fuller's whimsy at its best
27 September 2013
Jaye Tyler (Caroline Dhavernas) is a disaffected college graduate living in her trailer, and working in a dead end job in a Niagara Falls souvenir shop. Her days are pointless until the souvenirs starts talking to her. They command her in cryptic messages, and they just won't shut up. She's never sure about their meaning, and can never predict the wild outcomes. Jaye is forced to break out of her apathy and falls for bartender Eric Gotts (Tyron Leitso). She begins to repair her relationships with her family.

This is Bryan Fuller's whimsy at its best. The talking nick nacks are wonderful. Dhavernas is adorably bitter. The show is filled with great actors. It was canceled almost immediately by Fox after 4 episodes, and only 13 episodes were ever made. It never got a good audience but also never got much of a chance.
