[QUOTE="Willie Oleson, post: 402623, member: 8"] It's nice when they put a lot of effort in the details but somehow it always ends up[I] looking [/I]like an effort, and therefore less convincing. The TV series THE AMERICANS didn't do very much* to make it look like an eighties period drama and I think it was precisely that relaxed attitude that made it much easier to buy into it. Our lives in the 1980s didn't look like a garish studio set, it was quite boring for the most part. The Dutch version is also "permanent" but I agree that it sounds a little unusual in English. [SIZE=3]*unless they [I]did[/I], and did it so well that it looked effortlessly.[/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
