The first two amputated villains that come to my mind are Krycek from X-Files and of course Lindsey. And I thought they were pretty sexy before they lost limbs. The limb loss did give the slash fic writers something to hang adjectives on beyond "the shorter man" and "the doublecrossing agent" though, so that's a plus right there.
Zoe: So you two were kissin'? Book: Well. Isn't that... special?

Boxed Set, Vol. II: "It's a Cookbook...A Cookbook!!"
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
so you're saying that h/c is predicated on the role reversal?
I doubt it's always true. Not much is.
Isn't it usually a capable lead character? For all I know, there are tons of "nursing Buffy!Jonathan back to health" stories, but those are obviously crazy people.

Someone out in LJ land transcribed and captured an interview that David Hewlett did with something called "Cyberline.com". I don't know, I don't care, but I think I may be in love.
They ask him how he initally got in to acting:
DH: I got into it really early. I had this sort of epiphany, at a probably far too old age, that I couldn't actually be a Doctor Who Time Lord.
Transcript, with link to the audio file.

I listened to that a while ago. He's such a geek. He geeks out with the interviewers about Linux and programming for about twenty minutes. He just comes across as a really lovely guy.
Edited to add that I think I might be a little in love too.

Oh, God, that music. So gorgeous.
Yes. The music in this show, I've loved (especially some in the final two eps). Want soundtrack CD. Now.

Hey, they're going to repeat "Colonial Day" and "Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part 1" before showing "Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part 2" on Friday.
However, there is a new JOA so I will be missing at least "Colonial Day".

You know what I love? I love it when Hammond gets his rank on. Hee. Totally just smacked down Harry in Enigma (where we first meet the Tollan).
I miss George.

I'm still freaked out by George showing up on West Wing as an evangelical preacher. It's quite disconcerting. He is, of course, an honorable man. I think I've only ever seen him evil once, in an old Highlander ep.
Man, does Don Davis ever have good geek-tv credentials.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Well, it's better than Teppard.
