Defiance...
Jun. 5th, 2013 09:31 pmI just watched episode 7 of Defiance, which had me and Pim shrieking in surprise.
What an interesting show. It looked at first like a compendium of science fiction clichés put together in an entertaining way. But now... seven episodes in... we are totally enjoying the many layers of plot and theme, the characters and their interaction, the schemes and their schemes....
Okay, yes, it may fall flat - but so far it's just been building and building, without disappointment.
And it has been surprising me, in ways most TV shows simply don't.

( And, just for my own reference... )
