Description

Still, I found it mostly entertaining and far better than Criminal Minds DVD. Breaking Bad starts with us sympathetic for Walter, a teacher who, though a genius, has been passed over his whole life, and ends up with cancer. Wanting only to make $173,000 to cover medical and the costs of raising the kids and putting them through college when he is dead, Walter is sympathetic. But as things progress the situational morality of ‘I had to do it’, ‘I was just following orders’, etc takes over until Walter is a bad guy who does bad things with other bad guys. There is enough of that around that I don’t need to pay to find out that drug dealing causes death and unhappiness. Season three, where Walter has the lowest morality, steers clear of the dirty end of meth, like earlier seasons where peoples heads are crushed slowly in front of their children for refusing to share a hit. The series somehow tries to argue that this is about ‘money and survival’. I know it might be popular but I could not find anyone except maybe Walter’s son who I even liked, and I need to root for SOMEONE when I watch a show. So if you want to view it as sort of modern day pit fighting, then maybe this series is for you. I was disappointed that this series ended up going down such a worn and tired road.

Morality seems the words of this year, as The Good Wife DVD: The Second Seasonwins the Emmy, though the title turns out to be more of the show title than a character description. It is well written and has the plotting of a 15th century Italian city and nobility, which is how the lawyers seem to act. Sadly, the lesbian of season one disappears into a amoral bisexual (cliché’, why yes!). BUT, there is a guest appearance of Michael J. Fox, as a lawyer who is openly disabled and milks it – the way he makes the entire opposing lawyers, judge and even jury squirm with the inability to even know what to call it…his ‘affliction’, ‘handicap’, ‘crippled’? His use of Parkinson’s (which Michael Fox actually has had for almost 20 years) made me laugh out loud the whole time, particularly as he uses pouring a glass of water from a large pitcher into a open glass as tense as watching a high wire act, totally distracting the jury, judge, and even the expert witness whose testimony is supposed to be destroying his case. He returns a few times, and there is a strong hint he will return in Star Trek DVD. The idea of a person with a disability getting literally a million dollars a day to make people uncomfortable is a nice fantasy, as I can see I am drastically undercharging when I make those around me itchy with their desire to point out my disabilities, the need to distance themselves warring with the politically correct voice in their head. Still, if you know a law firm that needs me, I am will to make people extremely uncomfortable due to disability for $1,000 a day (I mean, who wouldn’t want to!).

Good or Bad, The The Good Wife: The Rome DVD the keeper of the three, though for brainless action and a preview vacation, Hawaii 5-0 isn’t bad either. If you love Mad Men DVD, I am sure you will get it regardless of what I say. I am that girl in the class who gets physically ill at people doing bad things, or lying and yes, my face always gives me away (something they must train out of you in law school). But I am left with the puzzler, do people really not know what Aloha means? Does it need to be translated as ‘speaking Hawaiian’? I thought, like how latin, french, anglo-saxon, and everything else mashed into English, a little Hawaiian had slipped in as well. Though, ‘bro’ (like, “Hey my Haole bro!” or “Right on bro”) might be used Doctor Who DVD more in Hawaii, that isn’t Hawaiian. Sorry to all those 15 year old boys who thought they had suddenly become bilingual.
