The guy who introduced me to the series hyped the series and episode 5 by saying it's one of the finest hours of television and I have to agree. Although episode 6 is damn fine too.
Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

Netflix said it couldn't find it.(It offered me something called UltraChrist about Jesus in modern NY, I was halfway considering for the laugh, but) Maybe if I search under Elba's filmography? Yeah, I know you speak true, askye. Maybe that just doesn't hurt his appeal with me. Big surprise. I read that he just made an audition tape of just him reading his lines, and the folks at the Wire cracked up but ended up giving the job to the "Crazy motherfucker" anyway.

I watched Ultraviolet when it was on telly, but don't remember much about it. The call of vampires/Miles from This Life was enough to make me watch. I do remember a creepy kid vampire being used to lure paedophiles or something similar.

Not "bad", just "Not strong enough to withstand contact with his normal speaking voice." Oh, God, don't tell me I'm defending strangers in the shiny box again. Kyle Secor trying to talk like a Midwestern farmer is bad(I love him, but still have to call it.)

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
Man, I taped UV back when Sc-Fi channel ran it, and I still haven't watched it. (And, now that I think about it, I promised to lend it to Bev after I watch it. Maybe I should get around to that soon.)

It's really good, Steph. The bit about talking over phones still gives me chills, for some reason.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Steph, someone else loaned me the dvds--but thanks. I may ask again if I can't scare up a set of my own. It's certainly worth a second watch.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Erika, if you have any decent video rental stores that carry British dramas nearby, you may be able to find a copy. If you can't, feel free to e-me at my profile addy and I'll be happy to lend you mine.
