The fantastic production style of season 1 and 2 have just disappeared. Even the soundtrack by Murry Gold is disappointing.<br /><br />Worried it's been 'tinkered' with by American producers to fit the US Market...<br /><br />Watched episode 8 last night. Will watch all of it, but so far, I believe that most of the series could have been nicely put into a two or three parter. Not 10 episodes.<br /><br />I do hope there is a season 5 and there's no more pandering to US audiences and they go back to the UK. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#A3B9CC"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>Johnny</b> <br /><small>Member # 878</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2011,7,29,6,11,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">August 29, 2011</span> <span class="timeformat-0">06:11 AM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> It started off being the very worst of RTD's cheesy, messy writing, with buzzwords being given prominence, then completely forgotten (remember the Soulless?), every single male background character being an old fashioned gay stereotype, cringe-worthy news reports, coooonstant references to the differences between British and American English ("PANTS MEAN TROUSERS!!"... an actual line) and the central plot point being repeated ad infinitum ("Don't forget, nobody dies now!"). <br /><br />But episode seven was very well written. For once the show really focused on just three characters and took the time to flesh them out, explain their motivations and make them feel like real people. It's a shame it took this long. <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
