Hot and wet

Pink is the New Blog has a link to the trailer for the new WB series "Aquaman." However, it also seems as though the newly merged CW network may not pick it up. This is surprising as Smallville is such a huge hit and so abominably written that I can't see how a beach/shirtless/bikini-clad version of Smallville could fail to garner the teen audience. Throw in the Bermuda Triangle for good measure and you even get the nerds.

See the trailer:


Read the gossip on Pink. (You'll have to scroll down a a bit.)

Clearly, the above trailer looks more likely to win new viewers than this one.

Update: Apparently the promo has been taken down from YouTube because the PTB don't want it out there.

From the AquamanTV.com website:
The Aquaman promotional trailer that landed on Youtube.com "has been removed at the request of copyright owner Warner Brothers because its content was used without permission."

The trailer video was viewed over 100,000 times and was in the top ten most-viewed videos on the site for the past few days.On the bright side, this means that the studio is aware of all of the fan demand for the project.

The trailer is probably hosted on other parts of the Web, but you'll have to find it for yourselves. I'd prefer not to hear from any lawyers myself :) Hopefully everyone who wanted to see the trailer has been able to.
