Bill Bailey's Remarkable Guide to the Orchestra
[2nd watch]
This is one of those things that's not really TV (though it has been shown on TV) but is not really a film either (it's a filmed live show, which I watched on Blu-ray), so where should I list it? Well, it's here now; and whatever it is, it's very good.
Leverage
5x09 The Rundown Job
This is listed as episode 10 on IMDb, but comes up as episode 9 on Amazon Prime. Seems the pair were originally broadcast on the same night, with this one first, so it's IMDb that's wrong in this case.
More interestingly, it felt like a backdoor pilot for a spinoff, or possibly a new direction in season 6: Nate and Sophie not only don't appear, they aren't even mentioned; while Eliot becomes team leader due to his military connections as he, Hardison and Parker take down a would-be terrorist. It's more like a low-budget 24 or something than a regular heist-based episode of Leverage. I was fully expecting to check the IMDb trivia and learn it was intended as such a relaunch, but there's nothing there — which is almost weirder.
