Calling all Profit and Adrian Pasdar fans! At brunch this weekend,
linaerys and I agreed that there really should be a community for this show, and thanks to her initiative, now it exists:
boxofwrong It's for all things Profit. So come post stories, icons, talk about eps, or simply drool over the badass hotness that is Jim Profit. And please pimp!

Thought I might make use of the community to post some episode commentaries as I watch. If my brain can get past the "OMG! Adrian Pasdar naked in a box!" stage, that is. ;)
(Though really, apart from how visually stunning the naked-in-a-box shots are, there is so much content contained in that one detail of the show, and it places the viewer at such a vertiginous psychological precipice, that the naked hotness actually has very little to do with why it stays with you. It's just...such a box of wrong!)

Hee! That is one of the great universal truths!
There's some seriously out-of-date technology and ugly clothes that make a person giggle when rewatching the show, but the story itself? Oh, my! Jim Profit has to be one of the most fascinating characters ever to make it onto television. I watched the DVDs and then rewatched all the eps with some friends, and the second time around, I was sad all over again that there wasn't going to be any more. It's just a shame it didn't come out ten years later, because it would most certainly be the darling of Showtime or HBO.
I can't wait to hear your thoughts on the eps!

You know, now that I have the eps on my computer, I could actually upload them to somewhere and post the download links in the community. That should be a safer, more reliable way for people to get them. I'll get on to doing that.

No seriously, I'm embarrassed!

Out-dated technology and ugly 90s clothes not withstanding, I highly recommend the show!
