Axed Suspense Drama Returns

I’m so glad that ABC is delivering on its previous decision to bring canceled rookie drama Happy Town back for a late-season burn-off. Although there will never be another season of the show, at least fans can watch the remaining five episodes in the eight-episode first and only season starting tonight, June 2, at 10pm ET.

The first new episode following the series’ sudden three-week hiatus is “Slight of Hand.” Now that Rachel Conroy has mysteriously disappeared in full view of the entire town, Haplin experiences a darkening mood as residents begin to fear the return of the dreaded Magic Man. I personally can’t wait until he finally arrives.

ABC doesn’t have a traditional sneak peek for the latest installment, but there is a podcast video featuring executive producer Andrew Nemec revealing a bit about an important scene in “Slight of Hand.” Check the clip out below.
