what you're missing







if you aren't watching, you should. if you are watching - don't you love to hate the pedophile character? that actor is fantastic. although i didn't see last night's episode (it comes on fox, monday nights, 9pm), i did record it and i did watch my tape of the previous episode which i didn't get to see as it aired - it was a well-deserved escape from the drudgeries of a crappy monday (see previous post). not only is the protagonist hot, but the story is fun and marginally compelling. it's definitely suspenseful along the lines of 24, but slightly more understated. anyway, if you haven't watched the first few episodes, you have missed a little bit of the story, but could easily drop right in on the fun - the premise isn't hard to catch on, dude's brother is possibly wrongfully imprisoned for murder and someone wants him dead. fast. or just check it out when it comes on dvd. i promise it won't disappoint (even though picking apart the factual fallacies, such as death row inmates would never be allowed to mingle with general population anymore, is so easy, it's also half the fun.)

Sweet cracker sandwich (borrowed slang from Bucky Katt/Get Fuzzy) - Good Lord that boy's hot!

Thanks for the eye candy, nik...

anytime. what makes him hotter is that he's british; of course he doesn't use his accent on the show, but one need only imagine...

i think he was in The Human Stain as well.

i saw an article in the paper this morning that said your man may have the star power to replace tom cruise as hollywood's leading man. how ironic is that?
