Now filmed in all-new Wobble Vision tm
Feb. 26th, 2009 04:17 pmCan anyone tell me if this week's House is less hand-held than last week's? We had to bail on the episode a few minutes in when
lilacsigil went a nasty shade of green. And it was such pointless wobblevision that it made us both too mad to persevere, so I think we won't bother ahem-ing it this week unless the directors have gotten over their little fad.
Law and Order UK also had a lot of hand-held footage, but at least they used it for dramatic purpose as opposed to the cheap lulz of watching
lilacsigil fall off the sofa.
OMG FREEMA I LOVE YOU IN YOUR BARRISTER GET-UP!

I really liked the episode, actually. I wasn't expecting to; when I heard they were adapting an episode from the US for the UK show, I was worried that it would be all MY FORMAT IS PASTEDE ON YAY. It wasn't - there was a distinct and individual atmosphere to the show that I really liked. I don't think the characters have really gelled yet, but I like what I've seen of them so far. I am looking forward to watching more.
I've started watching Hex. It's... it's very fraught, isn't it? All those insouciant young people rubbing against each other. Hmm. But Jemima Rooper (from Lost in Austen) is brilliant. And I quite like the show, though I suspect I'm a couple of decades too old for it. I find myself shaking my head at the silly young things. (Note to self: get this for your baby sister's next birthday!)
ETA: How awesome are Weta for doing this? And how gorgeous is Nadya as a mermaid? I love she wrote to them and asked them to make her a mermaid tail.
