30 Days of Telly Meme - Day 02

May 17, 2010 19:54

Day 02 - A show that you wish more people were watching: SpooksI think I'm supposed to pick something relatively unknown, but the amount of people who aren't watching Spooks when it's on seems to be shocking. Not non-UK people, obviously, but Brits when it's on TV every autumn. I mean, if you like your TV relatively fluffy, fair enough, but ( Read more... )

Haha, yesssss!

So agreed. Saving the world gets a little old, but for the complexity of characters alone I love it. And the nostalgia I have for early seasons.......

Yes, those early seasons when they just saved one tiny bit of the world at time and moaned about the inconvenience of doing it in between. :lol:

Yes - I love it still and it never fails to pull out a few surprises, but I loves me the original team, the grid interaction and those days when we still had Howard Brenton writing scripts.

The nostalgia is setting in..... lol.

I still love it, series 7 killed me (Connie! Lucas! Neil Cross!), but you are right - I miss Tom, and the fantastically sardonic Jools, plus 2.5 was the best episode in the show's history ever, and they never set foot outside the pods. :D

Oh, yes. S7 was very cool. And I like our current team. Someone should just lock them on the grid again and, preferably get a famous playwright like... ooh, say Howard Brenton to write it again. :-D

(Do you think if I write into Kudos and ask nicely?)

The S7 team was hardcore, for lack of a better term. The finale was amazing (Gemma Jones, wow). But now they have Ruth back....

Yes! Another lockdown! Except this time Harry wouldn't be quarantined and they would have no qualms over unlocking the gun cabinet. Remember how big a deal that was then? *sigh*........

If you write very nicely, I'm sure... :)

I love the Tom icon, by the way. Now, if he were to come back, my head would surely explode. Seeing Lucas again? Agh.

Heh, well, maybe we'd better not risk having your head explode. :lol:
