![]() Started Season 2 now. Actually took me three tries to finish the first one. I don't know, something about the topical content and the hectic pacing made it a bit of a hard watch at first. I did enjoy it in the end though. Not your run-off-the-mill comic adaptation. I really dig the set-pieces and the psychedelic aatmosphere. |

i hate that they removed tom keene from bloomberg surveillance on tv
he's a funny old man with an erudite mind and his banter with bramo and ferro was great im listening to him now on the surveillance podcast, which you can actually watch on youtube. and he's also great there but now missing the other side of the team |

i saw the first episode of fallout. it was funny and entertaining and pretty well made. i can't compare it to the game because i've never played. i hope it's better than the halo series which has good spectacle but predictable boring plot (and i've never played that game either)

I recently finished Buffy, first time watching it through. Some things didn't age well at all, as was to be expected. And the whole Joss Whedon situation was hanging over the viewing experience like a cloud. But overall, I have to conclude that it was a damn fine piece of television for its time. Funny, likeable characters (with a few exceptions) and strong interpersonal relationships. Nice time capsule in terms of music and style too. And gutsy artistic decisions for network television. I get the hype.
Meanwhile, I've started watching what someone once aptly described as a Vampire-shaped plank of wood. Boreanaz can be good when he's allowed to be a bit more jovial. But that brooding stoical vamp routine is very dull. His more comedic notions and Charisma Carpenter reprising her redeemed clique queen persona Cordelia are doing a lot of the heavy lifting in this early stretch of the first Season. But it supposedly gets more interesting. I'll give it a shot. ![]() |

ive rewatched both shows in their entirety a couple of times. i mean from start to finish, at least twice each? (yes, on purpose) buffy is great, a classic really, and sure some things age poorly but it was important in its day. i don't find it profound btw, some people do, but it was sooooo entertaining as for the scandals, i have tired of our current era's pharisaic predilections and prefer to ignore them because they taint the experience, and i'm sure that in the end everyone involved is guilty, lol, not just the accused. guilty as sin as the expression goes (or "every cop is a criminal," as mick jagger sang) anyway, where buffy was originally a show about highschool and the difficulties of adolescence (and the college bit was somewhat of an extension), angel was about work and adulthood. not all seasons and characters and storylines were great either, same as buffy, but overall i enjoyed it tons, and i would watch it all yet again, why not. i still laugh at some memories of it but i'm not going to spoil them for you by revealing them prematurely. but please do come back afterwards and comment |
