After many years of running this bookblog my life has shifted a bit. I will continue to review books I am reading but will be adding in TV and movie reviews as well. Enjoy! Check out my companion blog: http://dcvegeats.blogspot.com/

"La Brea"
The top new show of a lethargic fall TV season, I really want to like this more than I do. I keep watching. A little Sci-fi, a decent cast, but somehow it's not coming together for me. For one thing, it's a little derivative. With huge echoes of "Lost" and "Land of the Lost" there has been, so far, not a single plot twist which has surprised me. It's also somewhat plodding. Despite the urgency of the story there is not a lot of energy in dialog or action to deal with things. Mostly, it's stuff like "planning" to fly into the mysterious rift, dealing with injuries and arguments about limited food stores, etc. So, for me, this one is a current watch but I'm not making any promises for the long term.
