Donovan-AnwarWho would have thought that the lead from The Blair Witch Project: Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2: Shadows Books would turn into the post-millenium action star? 

Well, I for one did.  Here’s an excerpt from my now defunct blog Witchies, Blair Witch Fans (Who’s Afraid of the Blair Witch?)

Wow, witch out for Jeffrey Donovan, he is on-track to become the post-millenium action star we have all been hoping for.   

Witches Out!

Burn Notice  and Psych perfectly encapsulate that moment in the early 80’s when television was actually fun.  There were no story arcs that would drag on for 5 seasons, no cross-promotional tie-ins to make sure I logged into a viral site for a morsel of information–instead, we are treated to programming that actually lets us escape.  Sure, Michael Weston has some demons he is wrestling with, but his main concern seems to be which suit best matches his rich tan.  And that is great.
