Oh ffs.

Although, he does have some talent at acting. He was good in that Bruges movie.

I keep forgetting to watch this one.

I would imagine so. That's how it starts... one episode... before you know it, it's 2 days later and you're watching the finale. :tea:

Yes, I look forward to watching the rest of it. It's interesting and possibly difficult too.

Thankfully I've managed to remain uninformed as usual, so nothing's ruined. :biggrin:

Seth wrote:I want to know where the hell that civil-war era fort they used is. Holy cow, what a treasure.

That's probably Ft Livingston near Grande Isle, Louisiana. Rising sea level and storm surges are taking it. The show portrayed it as on some sort of wooded upland behind the house. It is nowhere near any sort country portrayed in the show. It's in a marsh behind a berm from the Gulf of Mexico. Beach on one side of the berm, dying Civil War fort in a salt marsh on the other. They used CGI backgrounds in the series.

The refinery that plays prominently is a small part of the vast "Tenneco Refinery" in Chalmette, La, where I spent 11 months making a topological survey back in the 90s.

Yes, there a lot of places as ratty as they portray people living. Most are better, but only some south of New Orleans. The locations used in the show bear no relation to where they are in reality. They're in industrial districts in New Orleans one shot, then take a turn and park someplace that's probably Lake Charles, 300 miles of bumpy concrete interstate away, or way down in Plaquemines Parish.

I used to live in Lafitte, BTW. It wasn't that sucky, once you get used to living in a marsh. Come on.
