Mal ,'Out Of Gas'
This thread is for procedural TV, shows where the primary idea is to figure out the case. [NAFDA]
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.
There was this fabulous song that began rap-ish as Charlie was coming out of the prison, segueing to the scene of the Apartment of Pot and Snake, and googling what I can hear of the lyrics is giving me no love. *sigh*
Someone on my Flist recognized the song! It's Teddybears' Ahead of My Time (feat. Daddy Boastin'). I love it. It makes me chair-dance.
Remind me, if I ever come to LA, to find the music supervisor on the show so that I could make out with her/him.

Alas, I don't own the series (although I've watched and liked it a lot); I do, however, have Band of Brothers, and I may be rewatching that one soon, although I'm not sure I'm up for it. Several episodes of the show reduced me to a sobbing wreck the first time I watched them.
I love the wrinkles around his eyes.
I do, too, except those times when I look at them at a certain angle and they remind me of those fake eyelashes on Alex de Large from A Clockwork Orange. See?

I haven't tried this with the nbc streamer. At times though, it jumps back to the beginning for no reason or hangs up and just stops. The cbs streamer also seems non-mac friendly but it only stutters. None of this other bad behavior.
