What I'm Into This Week



JOHN CARTER - An impenetrable mess of a narrative, more boring than not, but its sense of scope is impressive.  An interesting failure.   




HBO - It's time to catch up on all the good tv I haven't watched in the last decade.  First, I'm finally finishing off Deadwood, which I had last left off about halfway through Season Two, and I'm also starting the final season of The Sopranos.  Tried No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency - Cute, but nah.




BREAKING BAD - I had dismissed this series after having seen the pilot, but my friend Greg convinced me to give it another chance.  Having finished the first season, I'm glad that I did.  Subtler than it initially seemed, this show about a high school teacher turned meth cooker has a number of compelling characters, all performed admirably.
