Wow, I'm kinda loving the Daniel and Rodney Show.
Oz ,'Beneath You'
Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon
A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
I'm watching the Peacekeeper Wars on tv even though I have the dvds.
Going back to US LoM for a moment. For those who ahem these things, there is a copy of the preair pilot doing the rounds. This one starred Colm Meaney as Gene Hunt and apparently followed the UK pilot script more closely. The network didn't like it, so they recast and rewrote and reshot the pilot.
(and it sucked.)
I heard that the opposite was true: the Kelley pilot was less like the original and the new one is more like it.
The one they used is very like the original.
(and it sucked.)
The original? The aired version? Both?
the pre-air pilot was awful, Jon. the aired one was...eh. nothing will compare to the original for me.
Thanks. I forgot the first ep was on the other day and didn't record it. I loved the UK version, but was wondering if I should bother with this one. I think I'll wait. I still haven't gotten around to watching Ashes to Ashes, even though I ahemmed the series.
I think that they need to get away from strict reproduction of the British original.
I'm going to say the same for Eleventh Hour- I'm watching the British version and it's excellent and the US first episode is exactly the same. . . only not as good.
The aired pilot of LoM was...fine, but it made me long for John Simm and Philip Glennister.
