Watch “Eli Stone” with George Michael

We all love George Michael, but is the U.S. ready for George Michael regularly during prime time?\u00a0 Here’s an article that says that George Michael may alienate viewers: Eli Stone\u201d Pilot Thoughts And More Fun Stuff<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

The Ugly<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will George Michael sing several times in every episode? I like him as much as the next guy, but it could get tiring pretty quickly. What about viewers who aren\u2019t amongst the George Michael faithful. The writers don\u2019t seem to understand that may alienate viewers who dislike the pop singer. It would be a shame if the show lost fans because George Michael was rammed down their throats. (No pun intended)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Eli Stone is the story of a lawyer who suddenly starts to have hallucinations … of George Michael. It starts out with George Michael singing “Faith” on his coffee table. What’s so fun about the first season of this television show is that George Michael makes multiple appearances. All of the show titles are George Michael or Wham! songs, and many of the musical numbers are also George Michael songs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eli Stone stars Jonny Lee Miller, Natasha Henstridge, Loretta Devine, Matt Letscher, Sam Jaeger, and Victor Garber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The DVD for the first season of Eli Stone<\/a> (Amazon Ad) is currently available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
