It's Buffy, rewritten.

You're better off with a Buffy DVD.

It's very violent, lots of action, but still dull.

Disappointing.

psychomum5 · 17/01/2009 20:14

the 'smite' word irritates me big time.

as does the shockingly bad accent from galvin!

Tortoise · 17/01/2009 20:15

I love the word Smite.
Haven't got into this episode but others have been ok.

psychomum5 · 17/01/2009 20:17

oh but it just makes me cringe.

make me think they are going to flick their hair or somehting.......

almost like teen girls 'smite' other teen girls with that 'flick'...!

poppy34 · 17/01/2009 21:14

siriusmew · 17/01/2009 21:16

So many bad things and so little space.
1.Galvin's accent
Took me ages to place it - Agent Smith from the Matrix anyone?

  1. Ruby.
Anyone who has seen this will know why. Red trousers, tartan jacket and leopard spotted boots. Enough said.
  1. Luke
Has one expression which he uses sparingly I quite like the blind woman - just how does she manage that eye-make up?
  1. The baddies/freaks/half-lives wear hoodies. Even ds thought that was crap.
SpongeBrainedHalfWit · 17/01/2009 21:22

Not seen it. DS2 wanted to watch it. When is it repeated ?

poppy34 · 17/01/2009 21:37

siriusmew - school fees may have possesed him.. the blind one also has v.bad make up and is basically a rip off of one of the charmed characters.. again cheese done much better with bigger budget

KayHarkerNeedsToSleep · 17/01/2009 22:47

Oh I was so disappointed. What is with the creatures being made up like 'aliens' in Star Trek: The Next Gen?

Things like Buffy and Doctor Who work because you are drawn in to a believable world, even if it's slighty alternate. But this is just full of little touches that just take you completely out of the suspension of disbelief.

The silly prosthetic make up, the jarring language - 'smiting'? ffs - and most of all that accent Glenister is doing. I'm stunned that a southerner who so convinced me he was a Mancunian can be so comprehensively chewing over an american accent.

Gutted, actually, I did want to like it. tries to be positive Glenister does look damn good in a long black coat. Thank goodness Ashes to Ashes is back soon.

yes it is awful but it's kind of amusing awful like that dodgy one about the Archeologists was (can't remember the name it was so bad) - we're watching cos there seems to be a bit of a lack of saturday night telly at the mo and sometimes mindless crap serves its purpose. But agree the american accent is especially bad

meridian · 18/01/2009 20:05

when I told DH I set it to sky+ and he asked what it was all I could say was A British Boy Buffy.. but without the Whedon wit... its not horrible.. its jsut not great... it needs to take itself far less seriously.. and the mum annoys me.. she must have vodka straight up in her tea cup because she isn't annnoyed/worried/or curious about the lame boy buffy..
