    Yes, there have been plenty of false-starts for the intended revival and reboot of the Highlander franchise, but as we’ve noticed in recent months there’s been genuine momentum.

  • RIP: RICHARD MOLL, ‘NIGHT COURT’ BALIFF AND PREMIERE IMMORTAL…

    HLWW is sad to hear of the passing of Richard Moll. The accomplished actor is perhaps best known for his intimidating frame (he was 6-foot-8 inch) and as his slow-on-the-uptake bailiff ‘Bull’ in tv’s Night Court, in which he appeared in all but one episode in its nine seasons...
