It's not easy to think of Neal just going for the score. They spent all last season showing how good he was at his new job, and now Mozzie (who of course is not going to pass it up because he's Mozzie) is going to so easily sway him to run?

I think that's why Neal was so quick to give up their plane. He doesn't really want to run, but it's hard to turn down a score like that outright. And also to turn down Mozzie.

I think it is a region 2 dvd. Can we play region 2 dvds on our computers?

I don't think so in general. In the past, I bought special software to, but it was the one thing I couldn't get to transfer properly to my new laptop so I gave away my few remaining French DVDs to professor friends.

sj,

yes, I saw the original version. the 'nets provide.

Meanwhile, I believe that series 2 is either started or on the verge of starting.

Of the original? I think they are working on series 3 in Denmark. And Series 2 is supposed to air on BBC this winter.

I'm glad I am not the only one who was "meh" about this ep of White Collar. There's an interview here with Matt Bomer that talks about the theme for the season. (No specific spoilers.) [link]

I did not like this WC at all. First, Neal really did have nothing to do with the original heist. So I felt that Mozzie really took advantage of him, roping him in so he couldn't get out. Plus, I feel like Neal was enjoying his new position and the associated trust. It's hard to believe he would leave all that behind for art/money. I know Mozzie is a good friend but I didn't really find it believable that they would head off to an island forever.

I was comparing in my head Neal leaving his credentials at his house vs. Trying to give them to Peter at the end of S1. It seemed to different. He was CRYING at the idea of leaving Peter and suddenly he just walks away. It seems inconsistent to me.

Maybe it was a sign that he wasn't really planning on leaving - he was hoping for a way to change the outcome.

Changing the subject: I've seen the ads for the show The Protector but hadn't considered watching it because if I never see Ally Walker as a cop post-SOA, I will be very pleased. But Whedonesque says that this is Jeffrey Bell's show so I figure that some people here may want to know that.

The Killing: Do people think they actually revealed the killer last night, or do you expect there is going to be another twist?

The preview said the last five minutes will be extra shocking, so I don't know. I'm not loving all the plot twists - I like the characters, and the actual mystery seems like it ought to be interesting but something about the way it's been presented just doesn't work for me. It's just one thing after another.

I think that there have been so many red herrings that it gets a bit tiresome plus what was said above about it being unbelieveable that the disappearance and then murder of a young girl who was somehow linked to a political campaign wouldn't have become more of a priority for the cops.

I keep wanting it to be more like Homicide, somehow.
