graculusThanks to the lovely ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
obelix who I never seem to get to see around online at the moment, I came home from my holidays clutching a set of the Man from UNCLE boxset, the one with all the episodes in, which I smuggled through customs and am now enjoying. I've watched all of season 1, including the bits in the colour version of the pilot where IK is very decorative and am now at 'The Discotheque Affair' in technicolour season 2. Much love for the boys, who really are so very married. The extras are cute too. And then when I'm done with all those episodes, I have the whole run of Wild Wild West to watch. :)
In other news, am I the only one who was somewhat underwhelmed by The Golden Compass? Yes, I know I'm behind the times, but I rented it the other day and was very much left thinking 'is that it?'. It just seemed to stop as it was really getting going. I'm left wondering if the books (though I haven't read them, so it's just speculation...) would probably have made a better miniseries, though of course they couldn't have afforded the same SFX budget. Any thoughts from the folks who have read them?
