Hotel Babylon

I don’t usually do TV reviews, but I really enjoyed “Hotel Babylon”‘s BBC premiere last night. A decent break out of the starter’s gate — characters it was possible to empathize with / lock into quickly (with the necessary touches of ambvalence in background or motivation here and there), and with camera work out of “CSI” by “Vegas”, though those particular idioms not overdone. A nice piece of work: it’ll be fun to see where this goes.
