This limited television series is a distant memory for most people (if, in fact, a memory at all). It was the brainchild of horror pioneer Wes Craven (SCREEM, NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET, LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT, HILLS HAVE EYES etc). He wrote all the episodes and directed one of the six, as well as overseeing most of the establishing shots. This series stopped production with the start of the 1992/93 Writer's Strike and never resumed.

After a brush with death from drowning [suicide?], Frank Nolan and Fay Peronivic find themselves in a mysterious all-night café. But they soon discover that - in fact - they had really died. Seemingly, these two were 'brought back to life' by the café and it's mysterious owner [Satan?] named Blackie. Frank and Fay are given the opportunity (at least, theoretically) to correct something that went wrong in their lives the first time around. Then they become the café's new cook and waitress, as they greet other customers who have also recently met the grim-reaper.
