Well, just...

... just gosh!

That were good, wannit?

Well I liked it - and I adored that it was a grey ending, that Jacob didn't win outright, although he won the battle he was fighting, and... yes... (And of course the way is clear for another series, since they didn't defeat Armageddon, or anything like that... *g*)

The worst thing is that I'm anticipating all the criticisms that people will have of it - the Jewish guy was still a baddie in the end (except that he wasn't actually Jewish, if he had no god, just as he hadn't been Christian, so...) - there was too much gore, there was too little gore melodrama/surprises/twists... It was too religious, it wasn't religious enough, the ending was too predictable, too ridiculous, too... whatever anyone can think of, I imagine...

I don't care, I enjoyed it for what it was, just like I enjoy Pros for what it is and don't care about the bloopers and weird plot devices and so on in those eps, either...

Who me? Defensive? *g* I dunno, but I think it did a brilliant job - it did get people talking about it, and thinking about it, and it was different from alot of what's been on lately, so...

Plus - Jacob looked good... *g*

I dunno - anyone got anything sensible to say?! Maybe I should have let it soak in for a bit, but mostly I just want to watch it again, now...

Yes I thought it was brilliant, and he was brilliant!
And I think the actor who plays Michael is excellent in the part... I do find myself wishing LC was playing Bukovac (although that actor is good too).
Now I'm praying (*g*) they'll commission a second series and that the DVDs will have lots of lovely MS extras!

Oh, what a fab idea - LC as Bukovac! Although I'd want the plot changed a little in that case... *g* Michael was brilliant - as you say, they all were, excellent casting all around, I thought, though our MS shines... *g* The psychologist woman was paticularly chilling last night too - reminded me of a scary Scully, sort of non-human, somehow...

I must get my dvds ordered actually - wheeee, hurry up January, and please may there be extras! He sounded so happy about the series that there might be, right? *crosses fingers and all* *g*
