Though I feel a bit cheated by the sudden erasure of Mekhi Phifer. I thought he was a good addition to the cast.
I agree with you on this. He was the most compelling of the supporting cast. It'll be intersting to see what they do with him on
Torchwood.
But they've downplayed the romance and the two other employees.
I'll also agree with this - this season has been better. The biggest problem has been that the episodes have gotten so intermitent that it always feels like it's being cancelled. I probably didn't let myself get as attached to it as I might have under other circumstances (say, a House-sized popularity).
I only watch because it is better than whatever is on the CW at the time.
I only watch because Tim Roth is a sexy little weasel.
(slowly gets to her feet) I am Scrappy.
If I can substitute "snarky bastard" I'll stand with you, but otherwise no.
I have been in fascination and intrigue with Roth since Rob Roy. When he's onscreen it's like everybody else loses a few degrees of vibrance.
What is that?
What is that?
Upstaging?
Actually, I think it depends on the cast.
Say what you will about Tarantino, but he does get actors with lots of wattage on screen.
It's not like Tim Roth blows Keitel or Buscemi or Madsen off the screen in Reservoir Dogs.

Lord, what an utterly loathsome character. I mean that as a compliment. I'm trying to think of someone more vile - Gary Oldman in Leon comes to mind (I swear they were having a competition for a couple of years there for who could out sleaze who, before they went into who can direct the most depressing debut movie). Maybe Jason Issacs in The Patriot, but with Mel Gibson as the hero at that point in his career it makes it hard to hate him quite as much.
