everything inside and outside of it is elevating him to this godlike status, and it's creepy and disturbing.
I would have liked this to be raised (if at all) and resolved within the space of series 3. As it is, it looks as if it will not be resolved at all. I now think Davies likes to play god by making his protagonist into a god, but it isn't what I want to see - especially if he'll persist in making bad decisions.
Although my favourite is when he's talking to Lynda about the impending Dalek invasion, then gets distracted, "Mind you, that one, Bear With Me..." and then gets distracted back on topic, "It's all gone wrong."
Loved it, yes.
Murray Head? Who's he?
He did things in Heroes where I remember thinking, "Really, you don't have to be that good right there.
True! But he exceeded requirements, and in his company, other actors like Milo Ventimiglia and Jack Coleman really shine. I think the writers used that and responded to it, though I may be wrong there - it may be that everyone was just expressing the material better by that point of the storyline. (After all, the plot was thickening.)
