"I have seen the future of network television, and its name is Wild
Palms," announced the New
York Post in March, initiatinga hype unsurpassed even by Twin Peaks. Film-maker Oliver Stone
(Platoon, Wall Street) makes his television debut with a five-part thriller set in 21 st-century Los Angeles, where virtual reality technology is running riot.
Wild Palms began as a surreal comic strip in ultra-cool Details magazine, written by Bruce Wagner (executive producer on the television version). James Belushi (About Last Night, K-9) stars as Harry Wyckoff , a television executive seduced by the lucrative possibilities of new technology who plunges into a nightmare of dynastic intrigue and murder.
