Re: TV: What Are You Watching?
The Cowboy Bebop live action is weird in that it is too much like the anime and not enough like the anime at the same time. It's too much in really superficial meaningless ways, and not enough in all the important ways. It has all kinds of little visual nods to the anime that are background set dressing, but they used so many in the few episodes there are that I wonder if they could actually do a season 2. But in story and character, and actually getting what makes Bebop great, they blaze their own trail, and it usually doesn't work.
