ya, juz read dat a lot of viewers find the sonya character annoying and slammed the actress. me don't find the character annoying because it's meant to be dat. hence the :s22:.
previously, me named the two lead actors and not the characters they played. juz personal preference, the two leads could hv been someone else.

anyhow, the bridge became the third highest watched premiere for the cabler. renewal news any time soon?

the bridge second week's viewership ratings plummet almost by half. no worry, it happened to the americans too which got renewed. unless it plummets even more instead of stabilising as the weeks go by. :s22:

there would always be ppl who stubbornly compare wtih the original & those who couldn't accept the sonya character & those who lost interest in the female lead that acts this way

yes, there r some viewers who compare. but there r some viewers no watch the original and find sonya character annoying without knowing y. anyhow, it's tv. even real life issues like dat cleaning saga also opened for various interpretations to selected documents and fabrications like putting words in another person's mouth. ya, me know off topic. but dat's life. :s22:


back to the bridge, me like the opening theme song. here's he full song. more info by going to the youtube page. kinda sound bob dylanish.

juz when me tot it's a true blood poster, it's actually the bridge art.

imo, the best looking art for the bridge is the non-photographic one seen a couple of posts above.


this poster seems to signal killing of women but woment :(




for me, music sets the feel for the show.


i didn't have such habit, would go direct to the show

With the innate humour, good pace & cast & the development has been good so far ; feel the watchability is sustainable

The Bridge Producers and Diane Kruger on Sonya's Asperger's - AUGUST 6, 2013
http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/08...yas-aspergers?abthid=5201a3ffd9a6f78d3900002f

Diane Kruger was asked about playing the role, and remarked, “It's been a very long, difficult process. I didn't know very much about autism or Asperger’s. So I found myself for months and months reading books and studying what living with a condition like this could possibly mean. But it was very difficult for me to really grasp what you know, what that would be like. Because it's not an affectation. It's not something you can put on. I felt like I needed to meet someone who is living with Asperger’s to understand. You know, no line is ever just saying the line. There's never a scene I do on the show that's just saying my lines. I had to shift my point of view of the world from someone who's living with Asperger’s.”

Alex Plank who has Asperger’s, and he ended up becoming an adviser to the show. And he's on set every day that I work, he allowed me to ask some really uncomfortable questions that overwhelmed him at times. But I think he's been instrumental to, certainly, my performance, and also, I think, for the writers, because he does go into the writers’ room and, I think, helps everybody understand what this is like



TCA: 'The Bridge' Murder Will Be Solved 'Way Before the End' of Season 1 | TheWrap TV - Aug 2, 2013

FX's "The Bridge" will not be recycling Season 1 plots for its next season, which has yet to be announced by the network but expected as a result of strong critical reviews.

The murder will be solved well before the end of Season 1, showrunners Elwood Reid and Meredith Stiehm said Friday at TCA.

Reid added that Season 2 will not focus on one big crime, "We're going to get into different crime stories, kind of like the wire did."

guess they hv too. serialised cop show solving single crime in one season is not very popular for amerikan viewers. however, overseas non-u.s. viewers r cool with dat. dexter no count as it's a hybrid show.

the killing, season 3 juz ended. this show got a miraculous renewal after a cancellation. but will it see a season 4? probably not. gotta see how the new cop show, low winter sun premiering next week performs.


anyhow, the bridge has not been renewed yet. but it shld be a done deal soon. unless...
