I liked his line about wondering why he hasn't reached the limits of his imagination yet and where all the details are coming from. That's probably something out of the original, but I thought it was neat idea.

I did really like the use of the Twin Towers, though. I mean, what else would have the same impact on Sam as seeing the towers again? I thought it was a great moment for him, and Jason O'Mara really sold it.

That was just absolutely brilliant. As was the closing shot of the Towers at night.

Honestly, the smartest thing they did when they took it out of David Kelley's hands was to move it from Los Angeles to New York. New York just has a sense of being unto itself that very few other cities have. A Los Angeles of the 50s, ala Mulholland Drive might have provided interesting fodder, but for the effect they're trying to go for here, no other place but New York, I don't think.

Boston in the 70s would have been interesting, what with the busing controversy (I figure with Kelly, it would have been Boston if it wasn't LA, but lord knows I wouldn't trust him to get the history right), but I agree New York has a very strong identity. And it was definitely a less than ideal place in 70s.

Now, THAT'S the Life I remember....

Now, THAT'S the Life I remember....

Right? I mean, so new and different, but, besides the still (but less) jarring Tidwell scenes (perhaps less so because of KAREN FUCKING DAVIS!) and BOBBY! and CONSPIRACY WALL!

But those are easy to identify things, there were so many smaller things that seemed back on target.

And Ted and Dani in a scene together, finally?!!!

I really really loved how the professor's (warden's) involvement came back around to Charlie, and how the case illuminated information only available on the NBC website (him turning Constance down the first time and going back into solitary).

I can't lie, maybe I'm playing right into what the show wants, but I'm starting to like Tidwell. Sure, he's kind of slimy, but I don't think he's a bad guy. I'm guessing we probably won't be seeing a lot more of him awkwardly trying to flirt with Dani.

Damn, those prison psych experiments get me every. time. SO CREEPY.

Crap! I forgot that Life was on tonight!

quester - Friday nights at 10 Eastern is the normal airing time for Life.

It was good to see the conspiracy wall again. Did we get an id on the other guys in that photo? Whose funeral it was?

I liked seeing the old LT too.
