So I looked it up.<br /><br />I'm pretty disappointed.Laure Mackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00692780015410946019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-17009727266486966972014-06-02T10:34:05.148-04:002014-06-02T10:34:05.148-04:00I really like the Wil Wheaton show.

I really like John Malkovich, but I would disagree slightly, with you Chris - I do think it was awful.

As always, the joy is in the details - I was curious enough to look up "I Wanna Marry Harry" and found it was a reality show about a group of US women under the impression they are competing to marry Prince Harry. Words....they fail....<br /><br />I can recommend Big Ballet, though - I don't know if this is the UK show I saw or an American adaptation, but it was a very touching series taking a group of women who love to dance but think they are too big to do so right through to a performance of Swan Lake. It was fantastic.

If anything, the premises for both shows sounded like the TV equivalent of reheated take out food.<br /><br />It's a shame that <i>Crossbones</i> didn't work. John Malcovich is one of my favourite actors so I'm thinking of checking the show out. <br /><br />Meanwhile, I'm very curious about the Wil Wheaton show. Hopefully, he'll polish the rough spots (such as laughing before he's finished telling the joke) soon.Lucehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05612987173174005233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-12774311513203329622014-05-31T23:33:24.282-04:002014-05-31T23:33:24.282-04:00The plot of Gang Related sounds like at least half...The plot of <i>Gang Related</i> sounds like at least half of it was taken from <i>The Departed</i> (which was based on <i>Infernal Affairs</i> anyway).<br /><br />I tried to read the book that <i>Labyrinth</i> was based on, and had exactly the same reaction you did to the show, Chris.<br /><br />Also, ditto on Will Wheaton. <br /><br />That kitty has a peg leg!
