In Treatment

Gabriel Byrne plays the leading role of a new American drama series of HBO an adaptation or rather a remake of an Israeli series BeTipul. His acting makes the character of Dr. Paul Weston authentic. The series is about a psychologist who is counselling with completely different individuals throughout a week. He sees four patients, on Friday he has to undergo the same treatment he usually gives others at the end of the first week.

The Body Farm

Yesterday a new BBC crime drama series kicked off. I was startled first noticing that the whole series will be about body farms. After coming around the idea, I was curious which perspective would the makers choose. Obviously, they may have chosen another, a more fascinating point of view to present the notion of body farms, but they have focused rather on the investigation part of the story.

Dirk Gently

BBC Four has decided to adapt Douglas Adams' Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency. However, as I looked for some comparative opinions about the the book and series, I concluded they had nothing in common. I did not read the previously mentioned novel, but I did read The Salmon of Doubt and I have to admit that I did not have any kind of expectation toward these series. Except I know Douglas Adams, thus I prepared for something funny.
