I can't even remember what a piglet is. There's were "people" in it, you say? Hmmm...

I wasn't really concentrating. I, too, intended to review this series. Then I saw it. Somehow, it just wasn't interesting enough. It was unmemorable. In fact, half way through reading your review I thought to myself "Oh, Jamie Bamber's in another turkey". I'd completely forgotten I'd already watched this series. According to wikipedia it aired over here in February. I'd swear that was wrong. It seems like ages ago that I was cursing it.Paul Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02927027468227544676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-46151510506300224792011-06-21T02:26:51.889-04:002011-06-21T02:26:51.889-04:00I also saw the whole series and liked it.

Having said that, where exactly the writers were going with it i have no idea and i have a sneak suspicion they didn't either.jonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-754198005960726352011-06-21T02:03:28.116-04:002011-06-21T02:03:28.116-04:00I must be the only one who liked Outcasts.

Maybe that's the difference between British science fiction and American TV. We expect more action, more something. Most of the British scifi that I've seen is much more slowly paced and slower to develop. But that's okay. I like it.Mom2mykidshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10606601232083514099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-18761740432188991352011-06-20T23:43:42.132-04:002011-06-20T23:43:42.132-04:00I don't remember any smooshed cats, so I think...I don't remember any smooshed cats, so I think I'd go with <i>Hoarders</i>, Josie. :)Billie Douxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141769005175631213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-9399883412985036632011-06-20T23:34:36.936-04:002011-06-20T23:34:36.936-04:00Great review.

...Great review. I laughed, and then laughed again.<br /><br />Hmm...should I watch this or the <i>Hoarders</i> marathon? Does <i>Outcasts</i> have smooshed cats? Because that's my <i>sine qua non</i> for good TV these days.Josie Kafkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17892717530356699008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-20531961736792767812011-06-20T19:39:39.451-04:002011-06-20T19:39:39.451-04:00I think I lasted maybe two episodes.
