Nov. 3rd, 2008 11:59 amTime for my yearly post, methinks.
Have become addicted to The Bill (weird, I know). One of the things I like most about it is the use of diegetic sound only : makes you realise how horrendously overwrought some of the soundtracks to tv shows are. It also has some of the best acting on tv, and I love cop shows. So there it is.
Another thing I've seen lately is Dead Set, a five day Charlie Brooker series in which zombies rise and the Big Brother house contains the only survivors. I can't embed the trailer but the link is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQjq639WPiU. Pretty good first four episodes - won't watch the last one though, I've spoiled myself for it and it's not the type of ending that I like, so won't bother.
Real life? Work, bleaugh, irritating colleagues, infuriating students etc etc. Though my glum mood is actually due to me thinking I was going to get an Iphone this weekend and having to think again - is it possible to buy anything on this shithole of an island without getting ripped off? Anything at all?
Whatev. Supernatural, you still rule!
