I really like the background music on this show, especially the piano pieces. Anyone know who's composing the background music? For some reason, AMC doesn't list them, only the music directors and music supervisor.

Yay! I started an AMC thread.

I think the Adam/JR scenes are going to be fun to watch

Toups, this is the best I could find. Here's the list of the music team when AMC last won the Emmy in that category for 2005. They're nominated again this year, but the Academy didn't list individual members for any categories. Grr.

Terry Walker (music supervisor)

Jerry Pilato (music director)

A.J. Gundell (music director/composer)

Gary Kuo (composer)

Dominic Messinger (composer)

R.C. Cates (composer)

John Wineglass (composer)

Brian Comotto (composer)

Loris Holland (composer)

Brian Tarquin (composer)

Kim Oler (composer)

Peter Fish (composer)

Tom Spahn (composer)

Jim Klein (composer)

They usually do well in the Music Direction and Composition category....they might win this year, although I have predicted they will get Technical Control and Multiple Camera Editing for the technical categories

So, anyways, I've just been catching up on the shows so far this week and B&E have really been improving (unless there's some other influence in the show's upswing). Jake's return is really being handled well, I love Erica in prison, I love the GhostDixie story, the Hubbards, heck even the Ryan/Annie stuff has been a little more tolerable lately. There's been lots of references to history (I almost died when Dixie played the 'videotape' of flashbacks, that was GREAT), more vets, and most importantly -- I think there's been a LOT of HEART. Real friendships, real touching moments -- more than just rapes and lying about babies (I'm looking at you, Megan). Additionally, I think the latest crop of newbies (Frankie, Colby, Cassie, nuJake) are very strong (I really like the new Colby, although I wasn't a big Ambry Childers fan). Well done -- whoever the hell is responsible.

I am sure Nixon has influence on the show and we will find out soon (or hopefully) that we have a new head writer or writers. I like Jake's return so far and Erica in prison is fun. Ghost Dixie/Adam is just a hoot, given the history of how he drove her crazy to commit her to a psych ward to get JR, anything Jesse/Angie is great, I cannot get into Ryan/Annie love scenes but that could be because of my hate for his holiness ....I loved the tape of DIxie flashbacks. Anytime they do a nod to history, I like it. The vets are coming out more...we should be seeing more of Opal next week and possibly tomorrow or Friday. The friendship that is brewing now between Aidan/Jake/Frankie is just wonderful to watch. I am liking newbies as well, like Frankie, Cassandra, Rob, Dre, and Samuel...oh and Ritchie

Yeah, I have that old list. I'm looking for the latest updates - I wonder why AMC doesn't list the composers.

I'm so mad about the emmys not listing the didn't list individual members for any categories too!! As a person who keeps track of behind the scenes details, I really need it!

Yup! That's what I've noticed this past week. There's been some really well written/acted scenes and that is what's attracting me to AMC.

Well Toups we are glad to have you as an AMC viewer
