TV watching
Jan. 24th, 2012 07:49 pmIs anyone else watching Alcatraz? I've seen the first three eps and so far I like it. The basic premise and mystery are interesting - typical JJ Abrams, I guess. I hope it doesn't get too complicated, though. (I gave up on Lost when it got so complicated I just couldn't care any more. Someday I plan to watch the rest of the series, but I'm in no hurry.)
How about American Horror Story? I'm only a couple of eps in so far but it looks good. A bit of a weird mix and way too OTT but I'm enjoying it.
Anything else new on TV I should know about?
Right now I'm enjoying a Farscape marathon having finally acquired the series on Blu-Ray. It's got subtitles! The original DVD release didn't have them. Farscape was always a series I had real trouble following, partly because of the quirky dialogue and partly because the soundtrack tends to obscure things. Subtitles are essential and boy do they make a difference. I'm actually getting the details. It's like the difference between Monet and Rembrant, or like watching with and without my glasses on. I definitely see better with glasses :)
