Sobotka had a recurring role on Third Watch but other than that I have really seen him in anything else.

Hasselblad posted:Tried watching Luther. Could not understand much that Elba was mumbling. Like the Ozzie Osborne of actors. Rewatching Luther at the moment. It's aces. Love his physical acting.

Syrian Lannister posted:I just finished one. Same. Well, more like "same" because it was almost 6 months ago. Was the first subtitled runthrough for my partner as well (not a native speaker, we tried it subtitleless before but a lot was lost in the non-translation). We still constantly reference it to each other and scream a character's name whenever we see that actor in another show.

I've just started Bosch mostly because of Hector but half way through s1 and I'm really wishing he had more screen time and more character than playboy who ruined his marriage and regrets it who plays the 'bad' cop in interviews by asking the direct questions. Dunno, maybe I'm missing subtle characterizations. I did like the golf scene where Bosch calls him Tiger. Hope his role grows because if it doesn't I'll probably end up dropping the show.

Syrian Lannister posted:It does. That's good because Hector's a much more compelling screen presence than Welliver (to me), and the slightly odd cadence he speaks with is magnetic and that quick turn from affable to fearsome is great. Reddick is also good (and similarly the way he speaks is highly attention-grabbing). He's like if Cedric had played the game the way Marla wanted him to.

I just finished up the last season of Bosch (5) and really wish they had done more with Hector (Marlo's actor, to make this The Wire-adjacent). He's got so much range with just his facial expressions, and his voice is so compelling. I honestly spent most of the show wishing he was on screen when he wasn't. Was the second-gen Haiti aspect of his character written into the show late? It's a marked shift in S5, and with Bosch commenting "even I don't know you" or something to that effect, I'm guessing it was. I'm sad that there is a good plot thread there left dangling. I'd like to see Edgar clear the case with Gary and the crooked cops, even if we, the audience, know what's what. Also, I'm assuming the name of his uncle (Antoine Hector) is deliberately the same family name as his own? I'm only just realizing that Jerry is pretty similar to Jamie. Does anyone know if his character shift in S5 was based off real life? E: I also may have just missed completely obvious clues as to Edgar's heritage during the show as I am a quintessential goon and bad at watching things. Also not from the US nor familiar with the Haitian diaspora so maybe I was just missing things left and right. Shrimp or Shrimps fucked around with this message at 02:38 on Sep 29, 2022 |

Mu Zeta posted:The Wire looked old the day it aired. I thought it was intentional with the non-HD and non-widescreen format. I never saw a police station look so dreary and old on TV before The Wire. NYPD Blue's police station looked old and dirty as hell, and those locker/washrooms
