The weekly Primeval update

Blackett

For the first time since this series began I have had the joy of watching it on the tv screen rather than throught the rather poor definition of the ITV catch up thingy and oh my god there was no difference. Infact watching it on the big screen made me think I could be watching soemthing else on another channel because this was the biggest pile of wank I have watched in a good long time. The problems are numerous with this episode, you would think that with only two more episodes to go they would start tying up a few threads but no. Instead they decided to introduce new ideas such as a Nokia N95 that has an extra transparent flap that serves no purpose and makeup that does not run on Hannah Spearitts face whilst shes drowing but as soon as she starts crying it starts to run as though it were charcoal. Earlier this season we were given the first hint that Hannah was slowly becoming Buffy and this episode she got to do some lovely wire work beating up some sort of future mermaid that looked like a hairless Ludo of Labrynth fame.

It is also becoming more apparent that the writers of this show seem to play alot of computer games. Not only does the CGI look like its straight out of a PS2 game but they seem to see a generic idea and then run with it, this week we had the water level and then from the supposed teaser trailer next week is the sand level. I hope that in the sand they have weapons that are as sand proof as they were water proof tonight.
