I was half falling asleep-- the one thing that got really old in a hurry was Imperioli's exaggerated metaphors.

I have to admit, though, just as Keitel's character was really starting to annoy me with his bullish, fist-first demeanor, he killed me with how he dealt with grandma. He may not have much respect for psychology as a discipline, but he has an inherent instinct for what makes people tick.

I watched Eleventh Hour because, well, Rufus Sewell ....

It was okay. I hope that they start writing for Jason O'Mara though. The stuff that works for John Simm doesn't work nearly so well with JO'M. That scene in the bar where he confronts Hunt? I thought, are you really going to beat up Grandpa? (Of course, Keitel really does look too old for the part and it's worse that O'Mara isn't the small wiry guy that John Simm is.)

And I thought that some of the music (although okay) was just pasted onto scenes weirdly.

Eleventh Hour - I don't know. Rufus Sewell and David Krumholtz: they look remarkably similar and are playing characters that also seem remarkably similar. Maybe if whatisface had a brother who was a feebie he wouldn't need the body guard.

It's too bad the Beeb's LoM isn't available through Netflix. I'd really like to see John Simm in that role. I enjoyed him immensely on Doctor Who.

I thought The Who was pasted on, but the use of Sweet was awesome, even if the song was a little on-the-nose.

Yeah, the Who made no sense in that context.

LoM isn't available in region 1. (Although, has it played in Canada? Then there might be Canadian sources for it.)

LoM isn't available in region 1.

That's weird - BBCA stuff usually comes out here not long after it's initial run.

I wonder if the US remake has something to do with it.

i'm really tempted to make dvds for those of you who haven't seen the BBC version.
