Carnivále


One show I've been enjoying recently is Carnivále, an HBO show from 2003-2005 set in the age of the Great Depression in the 1930s in America. It's a tale of the struggle between the forces of good and evil, personified in the characters of Ben (Nick Stahl) and Brother Justin (Clancy Brown) -- yes you read that right, we have pitted against each other John Connor (from Terminator 3) and training sergeant Zim from Starship Troopers.

The settings and scenery are just awesome, HBO used around 4 million dollars for each episode, which is really a lot of money -- and you see can see great quality on the screen, even the opening titles with the Tarot cards is amazing. Huge recommendation! By the way, you can play some online tarot at HBO's official oldschool site.
