I know there are words in this blog post, but all I could see was Benedict Cumberbatch!
ReplyDeleteAnd I was thinking of not posting his pic today.....
Deletehe looks similar to his role in Atonement
DeleteI forgot he was in that one... but I generally forget his roles quickly :)
DeleteDELIVERANCE CREEK... looks good and i am not a fan of westerns. so yeah.
ReplyDeletefingers crossed, we do like Sparks' work
DeleteMAGIC sounds my kinda film. Especially with the dulcet tones of both BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH AND JIM BROADBENT :)
ReplyDeleteBroadbent is one of my all time fave actors.... always such a bliss to watch
DeleteAgree.
DeleteI will forever adore his role in MOULIN ROUGE... absolute delight
DeleteEven I like that movie and I'm a blue cowboy. No, not rouge... blue. Hello!
DeleteOh hi Wendy!
DeleteToo bad Nicole didn't sing TRUE BLUE in that one.....
DeleteAh... Nicole. Would that have required a mic?
Deleteyour own mic? :)
DeleteHmmm...a Nicholas Sparks TV series. That sounds different. I don't think he's tackled westerns before, has he?
ReplyDeletenot that I know... but I don't know much about it :) And I have to give a shoutout to wonderful Christopher Backus from the show's cast who just gave us a retweet!
DeleteI liked Lauren Ambrose in "Six Feet Under" -- nice to see her in a new series. I'm sure she'll be terrific in it!
ReplyDeleteI'm especially looking forward to see what Chris Backus does with his role and Wes Ramsey too
DeleteDeliverance Creek looks pretty intense.
ReplyDeletewe're keeping our fingers crossed... the cast is very nice, a number of them have tweeted about our post so we're wishing them all the luck with the new show :)
DeleteMagik = Benedict Cumberbatch and Tom Riley....
ReplyDeleteOh I do like it here :) I get to find out about all the cool things I can watch. I'm starting a Desmond list!
Glad you're enjoying your visits to the House of Dezmond :)
DeletePS I've left a couple of comments at your place, but I'm not sure if your site is publishing them :)
DeleteJules! Oh Dezzz isn't she one hell of a lady? And we mean that in a good way.
Deleteyep, her site seems to hate my comments :) and feeds on them....
DeleteJust let her know. I had the same problem until a week ago.
DeleteI told her here many times....
DeleteDELIVERANCE CREEK looks promising.
ReplyDeletethe ladies will love it, methinks
DeleteOooh, I haven't seen Lauren Ambrose in anything since 6 Feet Under. I really like her in that. Deliverance Creek sounds like one I could really get into!
ReplyDeleteIt starts in a few weeks!
