Oh, god, not Jude the Obscure.
Not even for Christopher Eccleton.
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
Oh, god, not Jude the Obscure.
Not even for Christopher Eccleton.
I'm with Dana. Not even for Eccleston. Jude the Obscure is slit-your-wrists territory.
ptooie, we shall speak no more of Hardy.
You can get Eccleston and Ewan McGregor in "The Shallow Grave", also not cheery.
Shallow Grave is a rollicking good time! It doesn't make me want to slit my wrists even a little bit.

hmm...i haven't gotten anything yet, Abby.
Casanova was what convinced my of David Tennant's acting chops. In the last (of three) episodes, he manages to convey ageing without makeup - just in his body language alone. Of course, he also grows up into Peter O'Toole, which can only be a good thing.
The mini-series of Casanova was also written by Russell T. Davies, just to make it even more of a Who-taster. The first two parts are a real blast, the third is much more downbeat, but it's certainly worth a look.
Jude, the Obscure--OMG, was that him?
Not like I'd ever watch it again, or anything, but yeah, wow. Range. And stuff.
Note that PBS will be running Casanova this year on Masterpiece Theatre.
