Description I've always wanted to do a painting of Tim Roth because...well, he just rocks.

I haven't seen Lie to Me but with him in it, it's something I would watch.

Has anyone else seen it. Is it good?

Just when I think you've painted all that is awesome in this world you go and paint Tim Roth! Bloody blinding work once again. I have to say, you do have an impeccible taste in actors; Mr Roth is rather brilliant.

As for Lie To Me, it is a great show and I think you would really enjoy it. It seems that the prevalent belief is that the first series is the best but I personally prefer the later seasons. They settle into what the show wants to be much better and spend less time worrying about explaining expressions

If you don't have Sky tv you will be probably find it here: [link]

Hahaha, thanks so much mate. Roth is amazing. I'm going to have to do a bunch of portraits of the actors I love. It'll keep me busy and very happy

Thanks for the link mate. It's definately something I'll have to look at. I don't watch too much tv so I need a new series to sink my teeth into.

You are most welcome dear Skrewt! I have just heard that the third season may end up being the last, so you may not have that much to catch up on in the end anyway .

I was intending to put a bid in on this on eBay too but got online 30 minutes after the bloody aution finished. I was not impressed

Oh noooo, both to the end of the series and for you missing out on the auction.

It always seems that most series don't last very long nowadays. You end up following them and getting to love the characters and then the bleeders that be cancel it. I think that Human Target will probably go the same way

Yeah, bloody typical isn't it? I really do like the show too. Other than the Mentalist there really isn't much that I watch on tv. I wanted to see Boardwalk Empire but after the first two episodes missed too many to catch up on.

I haven't seen Human Target, is it worth catching up on?

Yami-Pimea [2011-02-24 16:00:57 +0000 UTC]

I agree about Tim Roth. :3

I've seen Lie to Me and I really enjoyed it. It's not like an usual eeeh... police/FBI/such thing related series and is based more on psychology so... I pretty like it. And the character he plays is nice. A bit provocative but nice. XD

VanessaManic [2011-02-24 15:18:00 +0000 UTC]

You rock, you know that.)

I've seen Lie to Me and I like it. Tim Roth is very charismatic there.
Nice idea, nice actors and interesting episodes. I like season one most, the rest is not that great, but of course, it's just my opinion.
I haven't seen the very last episodes, have no time right now, but I plan to watch the series further.

Oh good, I'm not the only one XD Thanks so much mate. Funnily enough the one bit of his face that I had problems with was his jaw on the left (kept doing it too square, for some reason).

This is very nice! I watched two episodes of Lie to Me. Honestly, I thought it was a terrible show. Tim Roth is the only decent thing about it.

Ahh, it's good to hear another opinion regarding the show. Goes to show that a good actor can elevate a mediocre/poor show

I'm probably one of the biggest Lie to Me and Tim Roth fans....WHY HAVE YOU NOT SEEN IT?!?
If you love Tim Roth, you'll love Lie to Me. It's as simple as that.

I haven't yet seen it advertised in the UK Maybe it'll come on soon or else it's just hiding from me.

I do love him. He's a blindingly good actor and I'd watch him open an envelope

Not sure how helpful this is, but I'm from the UK and used to watch Lie To Me on Sky 1. I have no idea if it is still shown on that channel though. Also, amazing painting

Thank you. Unfortunately I don't have Sky. I would have thought that fiver or five usa might carry it, but I haven't seen it there so far. At the same time, I don't want much TV so I may have missed it on one of the channels.

I hope you can find it over there! It truly is an amazing show.

And if you're a fan of Tim Roth you have to check out The Legend of 1900, and Vincent and Theo. Those are my 2 favourite movies with him. (And Reservoir Dogs, Skellig, Funny Games, Four Rooms, Little Odessa, Captives, Invincible, To Kill a King........)

sullen-skrewt In reply to Jackolyn [2011-02-23 18:50:51 +0000 UTC]

Oh, I would love to see Vincent and Theo! I love Reservoir Dogs and I remember seeing him in Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead and being very impressed with seeing him and Oldman together

Definately will try to catch Lie to Me when it comes on.
