It looks like Patrick Swayze has become well enough to sign up for a television series on A&E! We get this amazing scoop from Variety via cinematical:
Variety reports that the dirty dancer’s pilot show about an unorthodox FBI agent, The Beast, has been picked up by A&E and that it will still star Swayze. Everything was up in the air when it was announced that he was fighting pancreatic cancer, but now insiders have told Variety that the actor’s doctors have given him the thumbs up to continue working, just a few weeks after he announced that he was responding well to treatment.
I am pleased as punch international friends! I would hazard a guess that Swayze has turned the corner with his affliction and is sending cancer into the flames! I am a fan of A&E and am pumped that they will be the people to bring us the Swayze in all his crime fighting glory.
I am not usually a fan of cop shows, but will certainly give this one a shot. Swayze as an FBI agent will no doubt spawn a generation of law abiding citizens. Fiction or not, if you suspect that someone 1/10 as bad ass as Patrick Swayze is on the FBI payroll – you will obey!
Cancer, we mock your failed attempt to take Swayze from us, and spit bile in your wretched face! May your days be cursed and oblivion neigh!
