Farewell to 'The Hour'

Hour

It wasn't perfect, but it was damn good. So let's raise a glass to "The Hour," the BBC/BBC America series that has been canceled after two seasons.

You can make Emmy acting cases for Dominic West, Ben Whishaw, Anna Chancellor, Peter Capaldi and, most of all, Romola Garai. I hope they are remembered when consideration time arrives.

About

Christy GroszA native of Los Angeles raised by two parents and "Hill Street Blues," Jon Weisman ankled his scriptwriting career and began working for Variety in 2004, subsequently serving as associate editor of features and television reporter before becoming awards editor. He promises not to use this platform to retroactively campaign for Oscars for “The Misfits,” though he’d feel justified in doing so.
