So...although I'm up for a good adaptation/translation, doing a US version of Broadchurch and signing Tennant as the lead is kinda not even trying.

(Please keep the accent).

She doesn't really provide a point from which to extrapolate to the Egyptian populace.

You try and explain it to the person who doesn't care who brought it up who keeps arguing with me and explaining that Egyptian art is non-representational and therefore they could all still be white (don't google fifth dynasty sculpture if you want to stay on her side). She then posted this [link] which cracks me up for two reasons--I swear the guy on the left is a brother, and...my name is right there in the middle!

ita, I think he is going to do an "American" accent.

Weren't (many of) the Egyptian gods anthropomorphic animals?

BTW, I have ZERO interest in watching "Broadchurch" again. It is great tv, but if I watch it again, even translated, I will feel like jumping off a building.

I was disappointed in the ending, the reveal on the murderer felt forced. So I doubt I shall watch.

You don't only have race in your head.

Fuck that.

Some shows make the solving the mystery part of why you're there. Broadchurch felt like you were there for the emotional rollercoaster. Perhaps to jump off it.

I don't even understand the point of casting David Tennant as David Tennant, unless the entire point is to skip the accents.

For some reason, the American version of Broadchurch has become equated with the American version of Inspector SpaceTime in my head, which does not really increase the chances that I will watch it.

and...my name is right there in the middle!

They put the exclamation point on the wrong side. Sloppy.

I WAS PROPHESIED BY ANCIENT EGYPT.

I feel destined right now, you don't even know.
