ALASKA DAILY has the potential to be a great dramatic show. The storyline is intriguing, the landscape is stunning, since it is Alaska, and they have Hillary Swank as their main character. Who could ask for more?
Hilary portrays Eileen, an infamous newspaper reporter who finds herself back in Anchorage, Alaska, through several circumstances. This is where she began her career 17 years ago. She is the type of investigator you want on your side. She is tenacious, persistent, and doesnât know the meaning of the word âno.â Hilaryâs acting skills are like being a part of an advanced, professional class. She says just as much when she doesnât utter a word as she does with the writerâs script. And when she goes into âpanic attackâ mode, I am ready to call 911 for her.Â
The plot of ALASKA DAILY is expansive, with a strong ensemble that includes Jeff Perry and Grace Dove. I want to know the answers and solve this âmurderâ investigation. Hilary is âborn to be a reporterâ who loves to âruffle feathersâ and find out what has been happening to the âindigenous women.â
I will continue to give ALASKA DAILY the opportunity to prove itself. I am gathering clues and thinking about âfrostbite and crutches.â Â
It is available to screen on ABC Television. Â
