Bar None review, and other updates
Here’s a pretty unique review of BAR NONE for your delectation.
What I’m up to: just getting into THE WIRE, four episodes in to Season One and I’m hooked. The 5 minute ‘crime scene’ scene where the only word uttered was ‘fuck’ is genius, the characters are real, the writing intelligent and compelling. Brilliant stuff. Now I have to watch it all before anyone tells me what happens. (Yeah, I’m late catching up on this series … I’m always late. I’ve only just bought STATE OF PLAY and EDGE OF DARKNESS to watch, too).
What I’m listening to: Death Magnetic by Metallica really is a bloody good album.
And another thing: Lost Season 5 … finished watching it last night, and … it’s OK. I’m glad it’s finishing next season. I laugh out loud now, more than gasp in surprise. Too many staggering revelations just make for comedy. But it’s still compellingly written and quite addictive stuff. And Kate is a hottie (Tracey is a Sawyer fan).
By the way, exciting news still incoming soon. Here’s a clue: keep your eye on Variety.
