Sundance Keeps Polls Open for Tanner
By Multi Channel News Staff -- Multichannel News, 9/2/2004 10:11:00 AM
Sundance Channel has voted to extend its remake of a seminal political series.
Originally planning three installment of Tanner on Tanner, the network said that in working with filmmakers Matthew Seig and Wren Arthur of Sandcastle 5 Productions they determined materials warranted pushing the limited skein to a fourth episode.
Tanner on Tanner bows on Oct. 5 at 9 p.m. with premiere episodes to follow in that time slot throughout the balance of the month. Additionally, a number of encore presentations are scheduled and a marathon is set for Oct. 31 at 5 p.m.
The series, blurring the lines between fact and drama, reunites the original cast of Home Box Office’s Tanner ’88: Cynthia Nixon as Alex Tanner; Michael Murphy as her father, Jack; Pamela Reed as T.J. Cavanaugh; Matt Malloy as Deke Connors; and Ilana Levine as Andrea Spinelli. The satirical series follows documentary filmmaker Alex Tanner as she tries to find the soul of the modern politician.
