Yay, thanks for posting! :D Yeah, this sounds different indeed. "Ben Sullivan"??? I like Kyle Loggins much better. But Molly Parker WINS of course.

Also, I thought he got the personality disorder because his wife was killed? My suggestion to the producers: fire Camille Sullivan, cast Molly Parker as the detective and leave everything else as it was before. ;)

PS: I love your background pic. :)

I also prefer Kyle Loggins. Ben Sullivan is so... generic. I don't know why they changed it.

And you're right. Wasn't the cause of his disorder the murder of his family? Why does he have the disorder now?

It sounds all a bit watered-down to me. :(

What do they mean with smallscreen drama???

These are indeed different news. Maybe they had to change the script afterwards? The good news though is Molly being on the show too.

I think they mean TV drama :-/

Oh dear! I just had the most terrible thought... What if Molly just appears in the pilot and kill her off, only to appear in flashbacks for angst sake? NOOOOOOOOOO!

I got the impression they meant maybe mini-series or whatever.

That would be too cheap, wouldn't it! *joins nooooo-ing*

Thanks for the update! :D:D

This sounds like a rewrite. His wife is alive? Or do we get flashbacks...? And he seems to be a cop, not a former one, interesting. But confusing, you are right.

I liked the old name much better, I am with you all on this. Yay for Molly Parker. I am not sure what to think of Camille Sullivan, yet. Not that I hate her or anything, just not too excited, I admit.

Or do we get flashbacks...?

Of course, that could be it! At least, I hope you are right. Because I am really fond of the "girlfriend in the freezer" syndrome. Or could his dead wife be one of his personalities? I'm not sure I see the names of the actors who were supposed to play his other personalities in this article. But please, Ben/Kyle, no lipstick. ;)

I really hate it, when they overplay the angst on TV shows, so I hope she plays one of his personalities, even if he has to wear lipstick :p

That thing about is wife is really confusing... I thought she was murdered, which caused his trauma.

I don't have an opinion on Camille Sullivan, other than her being pretty. I mean, her role in Normal wasn't that good, so I can't judge her from that.
