We stopped watching somewhere in season two, but there's a nice interview with John in the most recent issue of Out that made me want to check it out. Re: Bill Pullman as Oswald, John is quoted as saying, "You're going to like Oswald, but be pissed at yourself for liking him."
One of the things I always liked about the original was that it took place in Wales, so I'm sad that it's being Americanized.
stereotypes such as the young (glamorous, of course) girl reporter/investigator... and the heroic agent rising from his sickbed, quaffing painkillers
The fact that the entire female cast can't seem to scrounge up a single pair of sensible shoes among them -- everyone, including on duty physicians, wearing 4" stripper heels -- had me howling throughout.
And a hospital that left a vial of pain meds sitting out to be snatched by any AMA self-discharging patient would lose its accreditation faster than you can say JCAHO.
That said, it was lovely to see Gwen's face when she first sees Jack again. That made the whole episode worth it to me.
