Revisiting stuff

I rewatched Equlibrium last week. I’m not sure whether I’d rewatched it since it first came out. Broadly, it was as I remembered: gun kata is still cool, the design is mostly gorgeous, but this is derivative dystopia. Casting spoilers )

As it’s on iPlayer, I’ve started rewatching Cardiac Arrest, since it first aired when back I thought ‘This isn’t Casualty. Cool.’ (I checked and that would be 1994.) It’s been on my list of shows to revisit for years.

Thoughts about 1.1 'Welcome to the House of Pain' )

As all of the show is (allegedly) on All4 now, I’m going to go back to watching it on catch-up TV.

I listened to the special ‘How Parks and Recreation was influenced by The West Wing’ episode of The West Wing Weekly. Read more... )

The Wheel of Time 1.01

With my usual brilliant timing, as everyone else starts watching season 2 of this, I start watching season 1 for the first time. I meant to do it sooner after finishing The Rings of Power, but didn’t. So, I haven’t read the book(s) on which the show is based. I like Rosamund Pike’s work, have done since she popped up with a real presence in ‘Wives and Daughters’. Is it too unenthused to say that the first episode gave me no reason to stop watching?

Hart of Dixie - 3.9 Something To Talk About

I note that the show is now sponsored by ‘Best of the USA’ (which I suppose is a campaign to get tourists to visit the US.) I wouldn’t have made that claim about this show myself.

TWW with reduced onscreen Toby

The West Wing - 5.19 Talking Points - no double bill, mainly because of the timing when I happened to watch it, and it was the last ep on the disc. So, there was also laziness involved.
