The Freak

Last night I stayed up way too long again despite the fact that I was very tired. Why? Last episode (692/692) of "Prisoner(: Cell Block H)" or in Swedish - Kvinnofängelset ("the womenprison", kind of). An australian show that originally ran from 1979-1987. A b-series really. It has been showed twice in Sweden, always late at night. It has recived a sort of cult status amongst the weirdos who watches it. It's so bad it's actually good. But it's not bad just like the ordinary shitty soaps, it has something. Selfirony and some kind of deeper stuff to sometimes. Anyway, Joan Ferguson - the Freak, is the show. The evil screw who is a very lonely dyke. She is so great, and lately she has been kind of human too. But now she finally got what she really deserved, once and for all. Oh, I hope they'll show it from the beginning, but maybe not so late at night (even if that's half the point.) I remember watching it late (but not that late)at friday- or saturdaynights, if i was home, when i was around 15-16. And then since when they started to show it again a couple of years ago I've watched it from times to times. It sure has something, in some absurd way. Haha.
