That very thing happened when we tried to set a Pass for "Runaway," the CW's entry into the "mysterious disappearances" genre (see "Kidnapped," "Vanished," and "Without a Trace") which premieres tonight at 9 p.m. In this case the show is focused on those who have disappeared, not those looking for the disappeared. Donnie "Don't Call Me a New Kid" Wahlberg stars as a father falsely accused of murder who decides to go on the run--with his family in tow. Leslie Hope (Jack Bauer's wife on season one of "24") is the wife and mother. Darren Star, he of "Sex and the City" fame, had a hand in the series, so that's something. But so far we just can't drum up any real enthusiasm for the show. We'll have to see how the pilot plays out.
