The Thing and The Phantom

Well, it looks like SYFY's Phantom pilot did not get picked up to be an ongoing series, and perhaps that's for the best. I had no problem with the current day setting given that the Phantom mantle is passed down from generation to generation, but the lead actor and especially the costume really needed some work. I still think it is a strong concept and hope that this less than successful attempt will deter others from taking a crack at adapting the character.
