So, what do we have up for judging this week? Perfect Day, Superstar and The River all return for a second crack at victory. You know what to do.
So, where was I? Or, where should I have been? Ah yes, Colors. American dramas such as Cold Case really like their baseball themed episodes don’t they? I can see they are a rich vein for stories as it is an American national sport and is played by everyone from young children to highly paid professional athletes. There is lots of scope for tales of improving ones circumstances (aka ‘The American Dream’™) and over-coming adversity. They also allow for exploring the darker elements of jealous, hate and greed as well. Colors presents the case of a murdered young black baseball player from 1945. Clyde Taylor had been very successful in the segregated Negro leagues and was on the verge of moving to the majors, a big issue in those days. 60 years on can the squad track down his killer? If only they’d ended the episode (number of four of Cold Case season three) with a montage of the police team playing baseball… Oh well, maybe later We didn’t quite crack the century with this set of 99 HD (720p) Lilly screencaps for the KM UK Summer Of HD 2014 now in the Gallery.
Well, slightly different… ish. I thought that today, what with it being a Friday, was a good day to post something a little more unusual. What you see on the right is a sketch of Kathryn done in pastels by artist Dan Moroboshi. I found it on the Flickr photo-sharing website and asked Dan if would allow me to share it with you all here on KM UK. He generously agreed. Thank you Dan. You can find more of Dan’s work on his Flickr page here. And you can find a large-sized copy of the sketch in the Drawings section of KM UK’s Fan Art in our Gallery here. If you would like to see your own Kathryn-themed work posted on this site then please contact me, we’d love to see what you can do. In case you didn’t get it the subject is supposed to be a play on the name of the (currently) popular kids toy Moshi Monsters. Kids today don’t know how lucky they are… In my day I had to work 25 hours a day and eat gravel… Gravel? You were lucky. We had to eat poison… What? You try coming up with witty and relevant subject lines!
Which will triumph this time? There’s only one way to find out… VOTE!
Speaking of the boss, 8 Years was one of the handful of CC episodes to contain music by a single artist. In this instance the plot was worked around the songs by Bruce “The Boss” Springsteen. I’m not au fait with this young person music but I gather it is popular. Quite how it fits in with a crime that occurred way back in 1988 I can’t imagine This must also be one of the few episodes of CC to include the title in the opening sequence when it shows time has passed with the caption “8 Years Later”. The gap shows how the lives of four close friends have changed and culminated in the death of one of them. After revisting the past to solve the case the show ends with various squad members revisiting the past in the own lives. John meet his ex, Nick (Jeremy Ratchford) succumbs to temptation, and as for Lilly… Her reminiscing with a witness about a wild/romantic interlude in her past gets her thumbing through the photo album. Who could the shy be-helmeted gentleman be? This latest post as part of the KM UK Summer Of HD 2014 brings us 127 HD (720p) Lilly screencaps in the Gallery. Update: Ooops. I jumped the gun. I was supposed to post the most recent poll winner, which was Colors, here. That will be posted next week now.
