HBO incestuosity

LOVING it! Am on Ep. 5 tonight.


Enjoy

Been watching it streamng?

thats how all the cool people watch stuff

 

[Orang Utan]

nah, the cool people torrent!

 

[madamv]

I'm on ep 7 of season 2 atm...

I am well jealous of all the peeps watching tonight for the first time. *sighs*

 

[PursuedByBears]

you say that about everything!!

No offence AS but I think we all guessed you wouldn't like it...

 

[starfish]

Looks good so far but think will watch rest via my mates d/l. This is too late for me.

[Orang Utan]

apparently they DID cut loads of sex and violence out - for shame!

 

[DotCommunist]

No balls.

I thought I saw some filth missing from the jason stackhouse hook sex scene

 

[dodgepot]

that was ace

 

[Strumpet]

 

[big eejit]

I enjoyed it. Plus it had Lucinda Williams blaring out. Which can't be bad.

 

[kabbes]

I've got a screen turned on its side beside my bed for such an eventuality.

What, really?

 

[kabbes]

Score one for the torrenters then.

I watched the first half -- will catch up with the second half on 4OD at some point.

I might torrent the rest, on the grounds that trying to keep up watching something weekly is hopeless. OTOH, I struggle to get a torrent running higher than 100kb per second, for some reason, which always puts me off doing it.

 

[The Octagon]

Enjoyed that, sleazy and funny (and in a way, a perfect counterpoint to the usual 'serious' HBO fare).

What did they cut out then?

I get the feeling I'm going to have to move to torrenting and let Channel 4 know I stopped watching because of the cuts.

 

[g force]

Yeah they did cut a few bits. For those that haven't seen more than this episode and are a bit "meh" it gets much, much better - as first eps go I thought it was pretty poor (compared to say Six Feet Under). But after that it hits its stride

 

[Griff]

A goods evening's telly with that and Generation Kill.

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

Suplex doesn't have HIGH standards. He just has very rigid and unusual standards. It's perplexing but he's no aesthete

I just don't like teen american pap TV drama.

 

[The Octagon]

I just don't like teen american pap TV drama.

You Iconoclast, you.

 

[Griff]

I just don't like teen american pap TV drama.

It was hardly that.

 

[kabbes]

It's true -- if you avoided it because you thought that it was teenish, you missed it for the wrong reason. Childish possibly, but not teenish.

I rather liked it but I suspect that I like rather different things to you anyway.

 

[May Kasahara]

I enjoyed it well enough and look forward to it getting better.

 

[g force]

Def gets better....but don't think it's going to be the greatest TV programme, the hyperbole around it it astounding and a sad reflection on the state of TV in general.

 

[Thora]

that was ace

Just the Jason Stackhouse hook sex scene or all of it?

 

[dodgepot]

all of it. all of the programme.

i want to speak like they all speak. that accent is way cool

 

[Thora]

Yep, and Anna Paquin looked great.

 

[dodgepot]

i had to google who that is. and now i know. and i also now know what else i've seen her in (x-men.) so cheers

 

[Buddy Bradley]

I liked it, except for the strident southern accents. I'm sure they're reasonably accurate, but they do grate after a while.

 

[dodgepot]

grate? they're wonderful
