Yup. Okay. It was good.
As someone who watched only G rated movies for much of her adult life, the gore level was fine. Definitely overreacted to. The lighting definitely helped, and maybe it helped that I was watching on a tiny, tiny tv. But still. I knew I was looking at something unspeakably awful that would cause someone to totally ralph, but without needing to totally ralph myself.
I liked the bits of characterization that we were able to see so far. Of course it needs depth, but I'm interested, and if I didn't feel they needed deepening, then why would I watch all season?
I liked the narrative structure, and how we were introduced to Rebecca with the whole team, and introduced to the team with Rebecca.
I liked the particular story. Except, you know, the face ripping bits. The twists were all nice.
Now. Being close to the earth as I am, I will be watching the gender issues dynamics. It wasn't too terrible tonight, but given the nature of the show, I'd want to step lightly.
I did miss bits of it, because my mil came in to talk to me during it. Guess I'll have to reinstate my Buffy watching hours rules. Plus, I didn't have tivo here, so I was all, wait, what?
Would like to rewatch, but didn't tape here.
Go Red Dwarf! Choose Red Dwarf!
Actually, I went exponential. On to logarithmic!
But first, this brief message. Okay, so one thing that's nagging at me, but only after my brain had time to settle a bit after the show -- she did that to herself? Holy Mother of God, that's freaky. Call it psychological goriness, I guess. Holy Hannah.
Also, if f(x) = ln u(x), then f'(x) = u'x/u(x). Thank you.
Call it psychological goriness
Yeah, well. There was plenty of that.
Was that the gross part? Or is there more?
(I think I was misinterpreted on this before; I'm not saying 'NCIS is better because it's gorier'; I'm saying 'the media is freaking out for no reason.')
Yeah, I think that was me -- in the throes of watch-and-post I read it as something like "hey, I was promised gory stuff!". Definitely my bad, sorry.
I liked it. Just watched off tape delay. Not too gory. A really good set-up of the triangle. I liked the teaser and Rebecca's introduction. I want to know the dirt on everyone else on the team.
I want her to not faint by episode 4 or 5.
creppy flashback guy in mirror was TOTALLY Twin Peaks for me too. freaky freaky no like him.
R saying she had already been erased was sad.
