Guess who's sleep schedule is backward again? I never can keep it straight... To amuse myself this week, I watched all five seasons of BBC's Primeval (2008-2011) which I found posted on youtube.
For those that aren't familiar with it, Primeval is a British syfy series, in which a professor, a lab technician, a college student and a zookeeper discover rips in time called anomalies, which temporarily allow the passage to and from whatever time period the particular anomaly leads to. This phenomenon results in creatures from the distant past and future passing through to the present time, resulting in alot of chaos.
Now, generally speaking, I don't like shows or movies about time travel. I don't particularly know why, but they usually annoy me. This series, however, didn't. I actually found it rather gripping. It helped that the show has an excellent cast of pretty British actors/actresses, including some of my favourites. Furthermore, British humour makes much more sense to me than American, so there were several scenes that made me laugh.
I didn't like all aspects of the series, nor all of the characters, but for the most part, I quite enjoyed it. Now that it's over, I'm trying to find something new to watch. I'm thinking about trying BBC's Sherlock.
