Beyond "Supernatural," I couldn't relate.

The WB has one show worth looking forward to on its fall schedule -- "Supernatural," a series about a pair of brothers compelled to hunt evil, searching for their father in a muscle car, kicking butt to a classic metal soundtrack.

It stars WB alums Jared Padalecki ("Gilmore Girls") and Jensen Ackles ("Smallville"), and will air in "Buffy's" former timeslot, 9 p.m. Tuesdays, starting Sept. 13.

In "Supernatural," the producers explained, evil takes the form of American mythological figures such as the Lady in White, Bloody Mary, and the hook-handed psycho who haunts Lover's Lane. Every Big Bad will be based on actual urban legends. And the pilot, it was delicious.

Series executive producer Eric Kripke, who runs the show with Robert Singer and McG, called it his opportunity to do "Star Wars" in truckstop America.

"I have a mandate to the writers to make the show Google-worthy," Kripke said.

See, that is what a TCA panel is supposed to do -- stimulate interest. One would think Marta Kauffman, the woman partially responsible for giving us "Friends," would know that.

Kauffman made a fatal error this afternoon when she introduced her new show "Related," about four hot sisters who ... relate ... to ... each ... other ... sorry, the pilot wasn't ready.

But Kauffman beamed in a speech via satellite, of which I only caught this snippet.

"Ann Sorelli is being played by the equally beautiful and stunningly talented Kiele Sanchez," she read, pausing for canned applause before going on. "Unlike Ginnie, Ann left home to go to college, fearing that if she stayed home for school and she mothered her two younger sisters, it would just be too toxic for her.

"She has an incredibly strong sense of self-preservation, and don't think her sisters don't resent her for it," Kauffman continued, making me think that Ann was a stand-in for the producer.

But then came, "She is currently a therapist who specializes in transvestite mental health. It's a niche."

That made me consider my own strong sense of self-preservation and make a hasty exit.
