The best thing this series did was remind me that I really like the Eels.

Re: HBO: The Jinx
I thought it was very well made and artfully put together. Gripping and tense, with some humor to it. Not sure if I'm just desensitized to human atrocities but I didn't exactly see it as the deeply disturbing thing people keep describing it as. Mostly i saw it as a document of an oblivious sociopath and the sheer ineptitude of everybody around him. Kind of like Pearl Jam March Madness.

It was basically a 5 hour long episode of Dateline. Not that that's a bad thing. Though it would have been better with some scenes of Keith Morrison walking around randomly.

Re: HBO: The Jinx
Reaching back a few pages for this because I just watched it yesterday...and I can say that this was not the case! I knew Durst had been arrested, I knew the final episode included a "bombshell" and a supposed confession, so I thought I was prepared for it. But as they started the final interview and Jerecki started to pull out photos, I found that my heart was pounding. How would he respond? Considering how cold-blooded he'd been during everything (testimony, interviews, etc.), I fully expected him to shrug it off. But, man: when you could see his stomach start to turn (the burp!) when he realized he'd basically been caught...I've never seen anything like that. Great stuff.durdencommatyler wrote: The final episode was a bombshell. It was one of the best series endings I've ever seen. It shook me. Of course, news is news and spoilers are hard to escape on the internet. So someone watching all of this tomorrow, for the first time, might not feel what I felt.
