TV

Cracker
2x05 The Big Crunch Part 2
I do like a good, well-written drama where none-more-moral Christians end up aborting, murdering and causing suicide. There are few more open to corruption for personal gain than the none-more-moral-than-we.
Once again, I thoroughly look forward to Fitz getting his hands on them in Part 3.

The Speaker
1x08 Episode 8 [season finale]
Duncan? Duncan?! No. He should've gone out weeks ago, if not right at the start, and certainly didn't deserve to win. While his speeches were well written his delivery was like a used car salesman crossed with a spin doctor, and as endlessly irritating as that sounds. Irene, on the other hand, spoke well and intelligently, touching without being irritating. What a mistake.
As for the series, though marred in early rounds by tasks that weren't really relevant to the series' aim, and though they picked an appalling winner, it had a very positive message and was clearly a positive experience for many involved. It wouldn't hurt to see them have another go.
