Oh, I see. He wasn't a transvestite in the show, sorry, got confused for a sec.
What you did to me was unbelievable, Connor. But then I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think.

I liked a lot of the K-ville concept and the actors, but the writing was really wooden, plus I got a little dizzy from all the anvils hitting my head. As you say, though, it is the pilot. The one thing that distracted me was the accents, or the lack thereof. I suppose I'd rather have no accents than gratingly bad Southern accents. I have trouble with The Closer because her accent is so wrong. Still, the accent of people raised in southern Louisiana is quite distinctive. It's really hard to believe that whats-his-face the ex-con could lose his in two years.

Isn't it a little hard to believe that he'd escaped from jail, been in the army and left to become a copy in that same timeframe?
MI-5 season 5 region 1 dvds coming out January 8th. . . and it's spendy as hell.

MI-5 is a great example of a show that's priced its dvds so high that I eventually stopped wanting them, and the show itself pretty much dropped off my radar as well.

Lack of accents didn't bother me. I've heard as thick as my grandaddy's to as generic southern as me and K. There're only a few words that will trip me up, most famously amongst my friends "quarter" and "yesterday"

If you have a region free DVD player, it's actually cheaper to order them from the UK. Even with the dollar being 2:1 to the pound.

You're certainly a better judge than I am about New Orleans, so I'll try to let that prejudice go. I don't know why I'd focus on the accent with ex-con guy, when so many other things about his story made no sense unless this show is set a couple of years in the future.

Well, what about the non-accent of Boulet?
