Is anyone here watching L&O: UK? I caught one and a half episodes last night. It's nice to see Freema Agyeman again, and Jamie Bamber continues to be very pretty. L&O Original Flavor was sort of comfort TV for me, and I could see this taking its place.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I am! Comfort TV is a good description. I'm enjoying it, without feeling much investment in characters or plot, which is relaxing for a change.

I've got the second ep on my dvr, waiting for me to watch it (probably tonight). I liked the first ep, even though the accents were a bit thicker than I was used to. I've watched a lot of Brit TV, so I was surprised when I had to turn on the CC for a few minutes of dialogue.

I'm liking L&O UK. It's also kind of nice because they are all brit revamps of original L&O stories, so there's a little nostalgia there.

I miss Lennie. But on the other hand, Bamber.

It was never the same for me without Lennie.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Noth leaving was a big void for me. I missed him a lot.

I got into L&O well after its Lennie-fication. And they don't show many pre-Lennie reruns. So for me L&O's pretty much with-Lennie and post-Lennie.
Lennie has lost all meaning.
