Harvey Keitel would be brilliant, and what's especially funny is that we just watched Mean Streets for the first time a couple days ago. XDXDXDXD F'in 1973 New York. XDXDXDXDXD (Don't ask how we'd never seen it before; we just hadn't, somehow. XD;;;)
I have no doubt both would be brilliant in those roles, if they were written correctly (which, from the first US pilot, I'll be shocked if they are), and if they got rid of freakin' Jason O'Mara. Because the problem wasn't Colm Meaney as Gene Hunt, let me tell you. The writing failed him, and Jason O'Mara makes the dude who played Jesse Mowatt in the terrible film Unspeakable starring Lance Henriksen, Dina Meyer, and Dennis Hopper look like a fucking Royal Shakespearian. FOR SERIOUS. Did you see the original US pilot? The fact that anyone's hiring O'Mara for anything after that boggles my mind, because it's not as though he's memorably pretty, either. :P
I've written rather a lot, yeah. There are people who top me, though...both in quantity and in quality. Though I give people a close money on volume of crack. XDXD There's some that isn't in this list, too...I just haven't linked it here yet. Have you checked out The Collator's Den yet? :)
