Indy TV show available on Hulu. A man who inhabits a diner seems capable of "making deals" in order to grant peoples wishes in exchange for tasks he describes.

The whole show seems to take place in the diner booth, where the mystery man hears updates from the people he's made deals with.

Not sure where this is going. Some of the deals seem to intersect or conflict. It's rather interesting.

Is it really a TV show if it has no TV broadcast format?

Is it a book if it's exclusively on kindle? Also we still call them "Feature Films" even though they run on videotape/digital format. Same Difference.

No, it may contain all the words of a book, and still be a novel, or a biography, or any of the things we normally call books, but it is not a book.

but we still refer to them by the traditional nomenclature. See the films reference.

It's still a book, and it's still a TV show.

I feel we've gotten off topic. Please watch the low the budget, short length serial drama available on hulu.

Yeah thats soooo much better than calling it a tv show. At least mike can rest now

This show originally aired on CityTV in Canada two years ago.
