First of all, this series has the best music ever seen in film. Ennio Morricone in my mind has the stature of a Beethoven or Bach or Wagner.. really he's that good, and his music will last that long.

Now that this is out of the way .. to have a series that lives up to Ennio's music is really a miracle.

If you think about it, TV has always been a "second hand" medium when it comes to quality. Well, as TV series go .. this doesn't feel like a TV series.

Even if it's long, and the whole series has two or three arcs over 7 seasons, it's not diluted at all. It's focused from beginning to end so you only grow more attached to the characters, you invest more and more emotion in it. It's like the best tragic movie you can think of, tweaked at 75% intensity, but with incredible peaks of emotion, and keyed to the most beautiful music on earth.

Think about the countless hours you've spent watching garbage in front of the TV, and try to get this series and watch it, as revenge. :)

I can't see anything better being made on TV.

The things that stood out in this movie are:

• the incredible courage of Piper Perabo .. there were scenes that would be quite silly but she delivers them total conviction, and it works

• Jessica Pare is quite lovely and has a shyness and a sincerity about her that's touching ...

One line summary: Shakespearean tragedy about love .. with cute girls making out.

Just my kind of movie :)

PS: I browsed Jessica's filmography and it seems she's in quite a lot of interesting movies ...

This show added a new dimension to scifi, and was so god damn good for a TV production it's scary.

All the characters are close to perfect, and they added main characters as they went along!!! And they did it exceptionally (except with you know who :))

The only thing comparable to it is ST:TOS.

Hell, the puppets on this show are better acted characters than 90% of the actors out there.

Everybody is so god damn impressed by Gollum. I say to the fires of Mount Doom with him! IT is a bumbling fake idiot, not a character.

Bring on Rygel and Pilot.
