I was watching 24 earlier tonight saw Mark Sheppard's name in the credits and thought, "Badger!"
I almost didn't recognize him and I think it's because he isn't wearing a hat in this show.
Hey, man, where are my pants? I have my hippo dignity!

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
How can he be bad without a hat?

Trying this again!
1. Did I say that he was bad?
2. If he is bad, maybe he is good-bad, but not evil.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Is Mark Sheppard voicing the Geico gecko? It sure sounds like him.

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.
Zenkitty, what you just said about Simon sums up maybe the most underappreciated character in the crew. Better than I could've. I thought Simon in the opening of Serenity was just Simon in his element. Thank you.

That online chat was a farce. A farcey farce. A farcical farcey farce.
Simon is lovely btw, I was thrilled to see that he was the first character to appear on the original trailer.

What is even happening?
A hodgeberry sister?
*shaky fist* Time and tide had managed to sweep that out of my brain, and I was all pleasantly swoony over movie!Simon. Now I gotta hurl.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I hope so. I am in love with that little lizard.

I agree. While it was deeper into the whole military-ruled section of the Alliance than Simon was used to, it was still the Alliance. From the Firefly flashbacks, I gather that he grew up with the mid- to upper-level Alliance folks, talked the talk, probably knew the fine gradients of social standing and such. It would have been far easier for Simon to infiltrate the research facility than, say, Mal, for all Mal's military history.
