Harry's Law S01E01

Got around to watching this the other day and... hey, I've been a huge
fan of Kathy Bates since "Misery", but this show feels so... try-hard.

Okay, I hated it.

But I considered watching the second ep just to see if I grew to like it
- or, maybe, it TONED THE FUCK DOWN or something - but then I noticed
that it's from David E Kelley, who gave this world the vomitously
self-righteous "The Practice", the insufferable "Ally McBeal", and
sickeningly successful "Boston Legal".

What the fuck was I thinking?

Oh, and look: it's been renewed for a second season. Yay.

Never thought I'd be this excited about a frocks-and-socks kind of drama
but here I am.

Breaking Bad S04 - Update

Oh don't you worry, darlink, I'm up to date with this little puppy.

But I'm HOARDing it. Because it's precious.

And it's so so soooOOOooo good, that when I want to watch another ep, I
GODDAMN WILL watch another ep.

Unstoppable (Tony Scott/Mark Bomback, 2010)

Post-TINML, this Tony Scott migraine was bearable - and rather entertaining.

Almost, Allah forgive me, ENJOYable.

This is Not My Life S01 - Final Word

I have to tell you something: TINML spoiled me.

Spoiled me something ROTTEN.

I had feast - a depraved and indifferent ORGY - of take-aways from that
show that when I sat down with some comfort telly of "Law & Order -
Season 6", I FUCKING CRIED.

HERE was television drama.

And it was made FIFTEEN FUCKING YEARS AGO.
