橙子换马甲 • Bob & Rose:Straight as Queer
Have to say it's a disappointment. Lesley Sharp and Jessica Stevenson, with script by Russell T. Davies... well, I thought the combination's strange but he should be ok.
It obviously didn't work, disaster, wrong cast and a waste of actors. Lesley Sharp, actually I personally think she could be sweet in a Mike Leigh film, but an RTD romantic drama? No, she's way too tough. Maybe that's why they cast her. To convince the audience that the complete gay does have reasons falling in love with a woman. And as she's not the prettiest woman in Britain, although there's nothing wrong with her performance, all those close-ups didn't do her any good.
Jessica Stevenson, I loved her in "Spaced", lovely loser, like everyone else in the gang. So I hate to say it, but she didn't do as well in "Black Books" and Confetti and Four Last Songs. She's more suitable to Simon Pegg stuff, well Simon Pegg himself is not quite in good state right now. She did a good job as this pathetic desperate female friend to the gay Bob here in "Bob & Rose", it's just the part was even more pathetic than I could take, utterly unlovable.
Alan Davies's cute, selfish and sweet as a child. I might have fallen for him, had this TV series written by someone else, or can I say someone better?
I know RTD's got a lot of fans. kk said he's amazing dealing with sexuality in Torchwood. But I was watching The League of Gentlemen, so RTD's nothing special. In this one, Bob just won't stop claiming although I love this woman and enjoy having sex with her, I'm still a complete gay. Doesn't make sense to me. What's so important about his sexuality, about being completely gay? What about Rose's sexuality? Should she be upset for not being seen as a woman? Or should she feel honoured for being loved by a complete gay? Thank God this almighty woman solved this problem by ignoring it. After all, it's only sexuality.
I haven't watched his world famous Queer as Folk, but from what I've seen in "Torchwood" and "Bob & Rose", I won't even say he's mild. No, he's just so straight, posh and straight, in other words, a bit boring to my taste.
