Everything you know about Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is about to be turned upside down in this modern-day mini-series. The cast includes Kathy Bates, Caterina Scorsone, Matt Frewer, Harry Dean Stanton, and Tim Curry.
Alice picks up a copy of one of Carroll's books -- and then quickly puts it down again. Putting it down quickly, however, is a preferable alternative to spending four hours at the same joyless task.
If "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" author Charles Dodgson, better known by his pseudonym Lewis Carroll, were to wander into the Wonderland of the Syfy network's two-night miniseries "Alice," he might find himself quite lost.
