Talk about your "high concept"

Wikipedia describes the Hollywood definition of "high concept" as "a term used to refer to a succinctly stated premise describing the overall idea of a production in just a few sentences or less."

The same notion applies to the guide on your television screen, usually just a few words to give you the gist of the story.

The other night, while I was idly cruising the list, I was stopped dead in mid-click of my remote by this:

A jazz trombonist meets a diner waitress, then picks up a pay phone and hears there's a nuclear war.

Would you have watched it???
