This is what is called a classic TV show. Going into 2021, still gripping

Damn, Dinklage, way to make lemonade -- theatre majors take heed of his quick masterclass at 20-22 minutes in. It was written way up (almost hysterical) with a few valleys, but he played it way down, quick and flat with a few peeks where they really mattered, peppering the crucial moments with just a few grimaces or body rocking. He made it so the character had rehearsed all these thoughts and words while scrutinizing his own self-doubts and apprehensions, so it came out in a false-calm rush at the first available outlet. Where he peaked was where he was still passionate and surprised at his own reactions, not just at the situation but at himself. It made the character deeper than written, because he had already gone through this potential moment over and over in his mind. That's not just embodying a character, that's embodying a character who knows his own character and has wrestled with it. He made it so that the usually gruff hedonist really understood that "the unexamined life is not worth living." Peter was playing a guy who had done that examination, and even though he wasn't happy with everything he found, he accepted the reality of it. He played a character going through the motions of an act he didn't really buy into -- at least not anymore. In the most poignant part of that, he put himself forward in the role when it needed to be put there. "Trust me, I know when life's being unfair [literally gesturing to his own stature as a real person]. Life... way out of line on this one." He took a demeaning shot at himself as the artist, to show how much his character was disgusted with the fate he saw unfolding. That's not easy to do properly, and it won't play well if overused, so it shows how intense the feeling was intended, counterpointing the rest of that practiced and downplayed ramble. The other moment was him saying "I know" with full expression after so much flatness, letting himself literally rock with that, admitting how much the character's core had been crushed by these experiences. This is Peter Dinklage basically directing himself in spite of whatever the script said. They gave him a vapid rant on paper, and he turned it into enlightenment. A less disciplined or insightful actor would have been screaming it like a madman. Peter made that sequence sublime. What was that Clint Eastwood quote? Yah... "A man's got to know his limitations." Peter showed us a man who was watching his own limitations happen in real time, a man standing at the edge of the abyss and saying, "Well, here I am..."

This SHOW needs to come back,this is the best show I have seen in a long time!!!!!

16:50 She a vegatarian that is allergic to tomatos... priceless!

Outbreak = Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. Just an observation. It still is a good show.

Frankenstein's gardener. 😂

”I'd like to give my two week notice.” 🤣

"I'd Like to give my two weeks notice" said the show.

Ramsey seems to like showing off by informing women that he's a 'great linguist' when he's trying to chat them up. Why doesn't he tell them he's a 'cunning linguist' instead? ;-) I'm sure that would be much more effective.

I can't believe this isn't an international effort. The aliens just needed to go to other countries to infect that population and spread.

someone pls get netflix to bring this show back season 2 and beyond would be a great idea IMHO

O my God....Catherine Bell. She's looking younger and prettier than in JAG.

Thanks

Dinklage is a marvelous Actor. I love this series.

Catherine Bell, JAG, had been a fine addition to the show even it just lasted a couple of episodes. To AlternityGM. Yes, it is a mad, mad world in which we live. On the one hand this show had been a major international success - have seen it at least THREE ( ! ) times on Free TV here in Germany and have bought the DVD - but before this, on the other hand, it had been canceled because of commen disinterest among the viewers when it had been aired on PayTV

Chuck is ill here ☺. He played god from the movie supernatural with the two handsome fellas, the Winchester brothers😉

what a excellent series, a mix of great acting, casting ,writing and directing.

I love this show and wish it would get picked back up by someone but the fact no one wears any PPE around an active infectious agent is driving me crazy. It has already shown to have multiple routes of transmission and they don’t know much about it yet no one is ever wearing protective gear while in contact with infected people, blood, etc. You would even need some type of acoustic protection from it!

I liked the updating the newbie part

"Looking at the tip of the iceberg " Iceberg lettuce 😂

Broad daylight in the field "I'll take you too his greenhouse a couple miles from here." Total darkness with flashlights.

The NASA letted text is around 38:05 but you have to have really good reflexes to read it. I recommend going to 38:03 and hitting pause just as Dr. Molly Caffrey is saying "and can expect him" in the "We also know Manning is out there and can expect him... statement.

if your being bullied the best thing you can do is stand up to them and knock the blocks off

Thank you

All the take out coffee cups on this series are running on empty. And I just cannot believe that with Catherine Bell joining this series, they STILL canned the show!! So unfair! Catherine Bell is an absolute asset to ANY show/series. I still remember her in J.A.G - she is a honey:)) (Judge Advocate General).

Great 👌 movie 🎥🍿🎥

I'm curious, say they are terra-forming the planet into a glass forest...how is that gonna survive a neutron star radiation flare? or does the glass forest form after the burst!

Always marvelous

Good scifi TV series. Never heard of it before I accidentally discovered it on KZfaq. It's hard to believe this unit could keep under wraps all of those bizarre public incidents on the show. These unexplained events would attract media attention as well as inquiries by local govt or local police. Not even the Feds could keep this a secret from the public for too long with strange events occuring all over the country. So in this episode they basically put an entire city, with millions of people, under the equivalent of martial law. That's not going to happen without the public, media & Congress demanding answers.

never heard of this show,but sonds good anyway

This whole series is full of predictive programming.

No point in watching threshold as 2nd siries has been cancelled the ending will leave you with no idea what happened in the end

Why worry about food...water would b the way

On a side note: I recently discovered that Brent Spiner is 73. Though for this series he would be in his late 50s(?). Anyway, I was surprised that they poked fun at his character when the newest member of the team informed him that he had also " hit on her mother ", WHEN SHE WAS 10 YEARS OLD.

RATED TV-14 LV

"NEXT STEP EVOLUTION" JUA-JUA-JUA! AUCH ¡SE ME TRABA LA MANDIBULA!

THEY had brought in CATHERINE BELL to late into the show.

Couple of shows ago i was having the idea that she might be the treat to humanity and not the evolved guy Now one of the so called infected is kinda confirming this again.

The more that i watch this series, I keep thinking that the good Doctor has had an upper lip enhancement. I don't recall seeing her before..I don't have a tv. It has been several years and before that ,I only had a few limited channels, available in the country, so I don't know what she looked like 15 years ago. Last episode, I noticed a lumpy...not much...look on the bottom of her upper lip. on the right side. The plumping might have been a tad uneven. Did anyone else notice this? So many guys have mentioned her lips.....perhaps, someone noticed the same thing.

How the fuck would NASA know about the gamma ray burst ahead of time?? Gamma ray bursts travel at the speed of light. There would be nothing there to see until the it hit us.

What happens I need to know if the vaccine was found pls

The NASA report confirms everything Manning said.

after 11 episodes I realize that is DooDoo from Star Tracks Next Generation. Oh and the boss of the Threshold team character is Over-Acted, so much it spills over to the next scene.

Damn, "DATA" is getting a hardware on...lol

The star of davil is a reflection of the signal ! This is real and happen here on earth now !

As much as I am liking this series, it sure sounds/looks like it is close to imploding. According to Wikipedia, at least 2 more seasons were originally " sketched out ", but here at episode 11 it looks like it couldn't go more than 3 or 4 more episodes before the whole U.S. is engulfed.

Good movie but she is a hopeless actress

Why does he get a pillow ?

hey! I know wen lifes being unfair...made me cry so Pete und myself go on

something wrong about this show.. why send your most valuable asset to field and risk endangering them ?

I didn't want to leave ne way x

Contaminating the cell phone at :30 seconds

this actor is soo familiar ne1 know her name?

brent spiner... seems his role as data was about the only thing he an act at....

agreed Lynchy CB is always gd

tht new doctor in team she is not white she is asian origin from back m not sure but m sure 🤔🤔

Was that NASA information letter written by AI? So clinical a reply, about such a grave finding.

I believe this episode doomed this brilliant series. Not allowed to show GM food as anything other than a godsend on tv, unless in a strictly satirical manner.

its broad daylight , they travel a mile to the green house and its the middle of the night...

Boom. 27:00 That's why this show only lasted one season, I'm guessing.

Lips

Hope you all love when thay don't need your permission to put a chip in you!

i like the propaganda cognitive dissonant blends,..daniel revelationesque,..

'We've collected ever Tomatoe oh oh oh....well, how to demonize a Farmer's Market. If there aren't many other more robust themes for Tomatoe collecting....still a stinker of a series...

I'm never eating tomatoes again!
