    Anyone still following it? I've been watching it for a while now and I'm really starting to like it, tonights episode was... weird, though. Usually it's sex, sex and more sex, whereas tonight it was religion, religion, moral issues, and more religion. Great ending though, delving into Christian's character was interesting. Matt's tears at the end didn't make me feel any sympathy for him though, the stupid fucker deserves jail.

    Hey again kaids. It was a good, but a bit harrowing. Felt like I was watching another episode of Special Victims Unit...

    I couldn't look at that girls smashed up face, too nasty.
    I predicted that the womanising surgeon guy had been abused when he was a kid as soon as they showed the priest on the TV after he was released. I'm great.

    Good show so far.

    Excellent show gets better every week. Last nights episode was weird, it showed way more of the different characters personalities than before. The girls face was awful

    Stopped watching it myself. It started getting repetetive after only 3 or 4 episodes, so decided to go for 24 instead. mmmmmm.... much better.

    I have to agree with most of the previous posters, it is getting better every week. I thought the threesome scenes were brilliantly done, and Christians blonde girlfriend is a great piece of acting. Last night was odd though.

    Is there a new season of '24' on? The one I'm watching is tiresome, repetitive, with irritating soap operaesque elements. And I've seen fifteen long hours of it...

    Is it just me or is the young fella in it freakily like Michael Jackson

    LOL.

    Thought last nights episode was good. Jasus, how bad would you feel if you were Matt? He should be made donate his facemask to the girl.

    Yeah I definitely enjoyed it last week...the scriptwriting is taut and fresh, unlike the towdry, tired bombast that 24* is currently displaying in spades.

    (I'm the biggest fan of 24 but I firmly believe that the show should have remained a once off season)

    i'm watching it on TG4, how many weeks behind Sky are they?

    the resemblance with Michael Jackson is scary btw

    If I've worked it out correctly, TG4 are showing episode 4 tomorrow. Sky just showed episode 8.

    Enjoying the show so far, though I don't like the hit 'n run plot. It's a little cliché for what is usually a pretty damn inventive show.
    Hopefully it will get wrapped up fairly quickly, I don't wanna watch the remaining episodes with it getting dragged out-- I can watch 24 for contrived-dragging-out-of-plots :rolleyes:

    As for Christian's abuse thing, it was definitely foreshadowed before this latest episode.

    Bloody hell, that episode was heavy, very depressing. Absolutely superb TV though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,208 ✭✭✭loismustdie


    yeah, was relly depressing. what's the story with the surgeons wife though, dis she know about the affari? and did the surgeon care about her other than patient?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16 krom kruak


    I watched it a few and found it predictable with sterotypes and re-hashed urban myths, e.g. Fat girl wants lipposuction so shoots herself, a old wrinkly bitch uses blackmail to get sex from younger doctor intercut with clips of operations so the female of our species can cover their eyes and say "uughh thats disgusting".

    Boring, boring, boring. I could have wrote myself only I couldn't believe that people would fall for it.

    What? Did you watch the episode? If you watched the episode you would not ask that question.

    It was overly depressing IMHO - show needs a few more laughs, a bit more black humour to be able to distinguish it from being run of the mill.
