Too well made, probably. Apparently one of the reasons for its premature demise was that the show cost so much to produce.
Oh, and nobody watched it either because human beings are inherently morons who'd rather watch
Celebrity: That's My Arse - Live! than one of the greatest TV dramas ever made.
Bitter? Much? Certainly.
Hard to justify spending money on gritty thought provoking westerns that doesn't do well ratings wise. It sucks but that's showbiz. I may buy myself a set too, actually, but probably just on DVD.
Do you find Blu Ray makes a big difference to your viewing pleasure, though??
I had to do some long ting to get
Basically, I looked on gumtree to see if anybody was selling it for a reasonable price. No such like. But then my bulb brightened. I came across a bloke selling
The L Word entire series boxset for £25. I then went on the website for CEX (Computer Exchange) and checked out the exchange value for the series. It was £40 worth of exchange vouchers for
L Word, which meant that I would make a good £15 profit even after using the vouchers to buy
Dexter from the store. So I went to get the
L Word and to my surprise I met 3 hardcore looking chavs who were more than happy for me to look through the set for a good 10 mins, making sure every disc ws crisp and clean. I found it hard to believe that these guys were fans of the show, so I assume they stole it off one of their relatives or whatever. No biggie, I didn't care, so gave the guy the 25 quid, got went to the Computer Exchange store all the way deep in north London, which is VERY far from me, exchanged the ****er for the vouchers and got
Dexter.
Haven't watched an episode yet, I did the manly thing and borrowed the set to my sister, who is becoming a big fan of the show. Plus i've had crap loads of work to do so it's difficult this week. But come the end of the week, i'll be almost up to date
EDIT
Forgot to mention that
Dexter was 25 quid in CEX. So made 15 quid profit
