James Frey was going to have a TV show? Well, he was writing one
anyway, but Fox has decided not to go with Frey's show, which would have been about a surfing detective. Frey sold the
script to the network before Oprah and the

decision to pass on Frey's tale of a private dick named Donald "Insane" Tremaine had nothing to do with the
maelstrom surrounding Frey and his book. My guess is that the show just wouldn't have been very good.Fox dumps James Frey's TV show

A surfing detective? I think he may actually be on drugs this time.
