Yeah, stick with it. It is a great piece of TV drama. I have seen the film version and the TV one(plus I have read the book). The TV version has so much more of the plot. It is a lot more involving dramatically.

Last night I caught up with 'The Good Wife'. The guy from 'The Big C' was in one of the episodes(the actor who plays the mad brother in 'The Big C'). I also saw last week's one with that pervert guy who keeps reappearing.

Well Sienna Miller in the black outfit is nice. The rest of the film is standard action fodder fair.

Last night I watched some more of 'Grimm'. There is an ongoing storyline which hopefully will developing into something quite good. Hopefully the main characters will find out about it soon.

I also watched more of 'Alcatraz'. A shame that this has been cancelled. :evil:

Just watched Hobo with a shotgun. WTF :lol: . This film is just plain crackers, killing someone with the stump that used to be your hand, love it! It reminded me of those shoddy 80's film's you find languishing in the bargain basket in your local corner shop.

No use now but I must admit while Avatar was a pretty ho-hum film in rewatching the 3d was handled beautifully!
Absolutely took my breath away at some points!

I got season 4 of 'Damages' in the post. It was a French DVD import(thank you to the BBC and Sony TV for not picking up the UK TV rights by the way). I started on that last night. It is an improvement on season 3, which I thought was a bit of a letdown, especially after the amazing first two seasons. John Goodman and Dylan Baker(aka Colin Sweeney the pervert guy from 'The Good Wife') guest star in this season. The Afghanistan storyline does make it topical and kind of reminds me of 'Homeland and a bit of '24'. This time there is near enough no use of flashbacks. It lacks some of the suspense of previous seasons. I think season 5 is going to be the last one.
