I forgot who here watches it but last night was really something. Holy-moly! How do people come up with such stuff? If this show doesn’t win some Emmys, I don’t know why not.
I watch it! I am so creeped out by this show but I keep watching anyway. That main actor, James Purefoy, is too good in that part. His performance is so eery. The one thing that I find a little odd is that he does have all those followers and they always seem to be in the right place at the right time. But the show keeps me watching.
even though the graphic violence forces me to turn my head at times. I think Kevin Bacon is also a terrific actor, and love the twist that Ryan and John are in love with the same woman, and the ways John finds to entice Ryan into chasing him is brilliantly creative on John’s part. I don’t know if all cults and their leaders would go to these extremes, but it is amazing how John works his people into doing the things they are willing to do for him. Great show.
Don’t know if anyone is following Red Widow, but that’s my favorite new show right now. I tape it every week, and it just gets better and better each week. The actors are amazing, and the storyline is terrific. I like the mafia-type crime-lord family background of it, and Goran Visnjic is another actor hitting it out of the park. I can almost feel his fearsome charm toward Marta right through my TV, and the fact that he bears a striking resemblance to Gilles Marini makes him that much more pleasant to watch, for me at least.
is probably my current favorite too. I just feel so helpless and frustrated for Marta and I think she is perfect for the part also. She shows her emotions so well without uttering a word. And I love the way she is so calm around the kids, not the way they show you on soaps but very realistic. Excellent show. And I like Goran much better on here than on ER. But he can’t hold a candle to Gilles IMO.
Between Red Widow, The Following and The Americans, I can’t remember when there have been so many good dramas on at the same time…and not on a premium channel.
