You Give Great Face

Two shows I'm in the middle of watching as we speak: the fabulous, creative new Caprica and season two of The Tudors. I'm just finally getting my Tudors act together, okay, guys?

Caprica takes place 58 years before the "Fall": it's a prequel to the events that began Battlestar Galactica. However, unlike BSG, there's no hot coeds running around a huge spaceship and being awesome. Instead-- and I'm halfway through, so bear with me-- there's a hot dad, an annoying dead daughter, and the potential for some cool "Holy shit! That's Admiral Adama as a child!" moments.

I mention this because the aforementioned Hot Dad (a truly amazing Eric Stoltz) was wearing some pretty glasses in this scene:

Good face.

As far as Tudors goes, I had no idea we were on the third season until it... uh... premiered the other day. Whoops! Now, I am enjoying my catching up time. Peter O'Toole makes a great pope! And he gives really really spectacular face:


Well done, everybody. Keep up the good work.

TV reviews that happen to make more sense? Right this way.
