Yes, I know it's a big pile of shit. |
I re-watched last year starting at S3, as I couldn't be much arsed watching the Sinclair years again, not to mention the execrable Jack the Ripper episode. Series 3 is when it starts getting proper ace, get some Super Lemon Haze in (or equivalent) for that one. I always liked the cut-price Bruce Willis that is Garibaldi, and Sheridans cheesmungousnous has to be a postmodern subversion of the action lead character, nonetheless, still ace. Now if they re-imagined to be darker and look like BSG, yet with the same premise, that could be the best thing ever.
On another tip, I'm well looking forward to the forthcoming 2 part BBC adaptation of Martin Amis' 'Money', hands down one of the greatest novels of the 80s. But can Nick Frost hack the lead role? Fuck knows, hope so.
