I hadn't realized just how long it had been since this show was on until I watched the first episode of Season 2 tonight and it all came back to me. Because of the writer's strike Season 1 was only 9 episodes long! Thankfully the new season has started and Season 1 on dvd arrived from amazon this week! I'm crossing my fingers for some good special features!
Star Lee Pace, is also in the movie I recently mentioned The Fall. Other star, Anna Friel is in this great little gem of a movie, Me Without You. And Kristin Chenoweth is just awesome at everything she does.
This show is like a mini movie each week! What a great first episode, bees bees bees and a ton of books at the very end! Did you watch tonight?
I think I'm going to put the DVDs on my Christmas list. And Mad Men.
ReplyDeleteOf course I watched it last night! I loved the bees thing like Burt's Bees and I was so jealous of all her books at the end. :)
ReplyDeleteI just finished watching it and loved it!!!!
ReplyDeleteLenore- High Five! I wish I was in school still so then during a break I could watch all 9 episodes right in a row. I'll just have to find some time in between tv and netflix to rewatch season one. Mad Men is awesome toooo! Some great special features, but watch out, on disc three i think it is the special features totally discuss the ending! But if you have already seen it, it won't bother you. I had to watch it so I could send the disc back but I didn't want to!
ReplyDeleteAmanda- Yay! I was totally loving the bee thing too. *glances at burts bee's lipgloss*. I was so jealous at the end too!
s. krishna- Yay!!! I love that they get semi-known people as guest stars! All 3 Bee employees are great actors!

LOL! I am so out of the loop. ;)
ReplyDeleterobin_titan- Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was so excited for the show to premiere last year, I'm a huge fan of the movie Amelie and aesthetically this looked really similar! It was actually better than I expected, like so good it belongs in a movie! I love Dead Like Me! I wonder if I knew it had the same creator last year, maybe I had forgotten! I just opened the Season One dvd today and it's so cute, like the Pie Hole Menu!!!!!
ReplyDeleteJ. Kaye- Didn't you give up tv? When's that ban lifting? We will have to give you some good tv recommendations!
What happened was I gave up TV in order to read more. Had the DirectTV box taken out and put in my closet. A couple months later, my daughter took the TV from my bedroom for school purposes. When her DirectTV box broke, she took that. So next year, when the 200 goal is over, I won't have a TV or box to use. I think my TV days are over.
ReplyDeleteThe ban is lifting when all the books are off the shelf, review books aren't included. :)
J. Kaye- I love tv way too much to give it up LOL! I typical weekend for me going movie/reading/movie/tv/reading/tv you get the picture ;)
ReplyDeleteHow are the special features then?
ReplyDeleteAmy- Plentiful! I really liked them! Two things I didn't like, not much from the actors besides Lee Pace and between each several minute feature you'd have to click to the next, probably did it 15-20 times. But there was actually a lot more than I normally see for tv on dvd!
