The cast of "Once Upon a Time"
Fairy tales have been capturing people's imaginations for hundreds of years, so it should come as no surprise that one of TV's biggest hits is an innovative drama that offers viewers a new take on some classic characters.

Q: I just finished watching a TV show from England that had only five episodes, called "DNA," starring Tom Conti. What happened to it? Also, after the first two episodes, some of the main characters were gone. What's up with that?
What happened to "DNA" happened quite a while ago now. The series (known as "Donovan" in its native Britain) premiered back in 2004 and was gone by 2006.
And what happened was it was simply canceled. Though for us a five-episode run would indicate a flop, the show was actually fairly popular -- enough to earn a complete-series DVD set a couple of years after it wrapped.
