Life is available for purchase at Amazon Unbox, if you're interested after the strike is resolved. Until then theres, *ahem*, other sources.
Procedurals 1: Anything You Say Can and Will Be Used Against You.
This thread is for procedural TV, shows where the primary idea is to figure out the case. [NAFDA]
NBC is having its snit with iTunes, so I've read, and offers shows on its own website, askye.
Right. Except if you run a Mac. Fie. Fie on them, I say. And the streaming? Herky Jerky for what reason I can't imagine.
SciFi does it right...why can't everyone!
I've never even heard of Amazon Unbox. See? I learn everything useful from the Buffistas.
And, Java Cat, I'm totally with you on the sanctioned littering. Bugs me every time.
I have a list of things that bug me, but the number one thing is not wearing seatbelts. Life is pretty good about that one.
It's funny how, back in the day, (meaning 1983) I drove a 1959 Plymouth Belvedere was pre-seatbelt invention. Now? I feel naked without one!
And let me just ditto every squee about last night's episode. I watched it on an actual tv, which is rare for me, and loved every second of it. Feeding a python a gun al carbonara. CLASSIC.
And the streaming? Herky Jerky for what reason I can't imagine.
a lot of times, if you put the video on pause and give it time to stream completely, it runs much smoother. Takes a little longer, but worth it.
Just finished it. And now I have to go and have every kind of sex there is with Damian Lewis. Oral, anal, vaginal, nasal...
Is there some sort of list I could use? Maybe one of those For Dummies books? Because I really need to be sure I'm complete in this.
I was thinking "I bet she's the kid" when he was with her. And then I forgot I was thinking that. And then I lost it at the end. Lost it.
I need to go and watch all the episodes again, because I just want to really watch the lighting, how they use natural light, especially with Crews.
This is a fantastic show to watch in HD, but in a different way then Pushing Daisies. Pushing Daisies is all bright, rich over saturated colors so that it's like watching Candy Land, extremely fairy tale, which totally works for the show.
But Life, is all about looking natural. You can see the wrinkles around Damian Lewis's eyes (which is totally not a complaint), and really see facial expressions. Last night, when he was talking to the prisoner (I forget his name) the room was blindingly white, very sterile. And the contrast between the natural lighting when he was walking out of the prison. It's more about the subtleties.
And in a very shallow note it's just lovely to see Damian Lewis that clearly..the way his eyes look.
I adore the use of natural light on this show, which is why the fake-driving scenes throw me for a loop.
I was looking at a still image after Charlie takes out Jack Reese's two thugs, and I'd thought the lighting was extremely unusual, like in the middle of the day, in that moment, all the world around Charlie had gone dark, it was almost like they had shot that moment on a set for dramatic/artistic effect. But looking at that still I realized that the sun was setting and it was a spotlight shining down on Charlie. Which? Awesome. It was probably a product of necessity, but I just enjoy that the light was "unnatural", in some metaphorical way that I can't articulate.

I love the wrinkles around his eyes. *snugs Damian Lewis from afar and in a non-stalkery fashion*
We should all watch Forsyte Saga togeter as methadone until the strike ends and we get new episodes.
