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.
Michael Praed was pretty and intense enough, but my favorites were probably Will and Nasir. Both of whom (Ray Winstone and Mark Ryan) have gone on to relatively successful careers, as well.
ita, what I think you'll notice most clearly is the editing and the fight sequences. We've just been spoiled in the last 20 years as those have gotten tighter and tighter, and more and more polished looking. RoS really suffers by comparison, although for the time I expect they were pretty good. Also, I still love how dirty everyone was.
didn't react as if a shark had been jumped
I was so impressed they went the way they did with the first Robin, and then got to use the
other
legend of Robin's origins to introduce Robert of Huntingdon. It was smart thinking on their part.
Oh, Michael Praed. *wistful sigh*
That was my point, Matt. Sarah Jane is more of an agent than Tegan. I was saying that it's more satisfying to see somebody who goes out and does things.
Sorry Betsy, I misunderstood—I thought you were citing Tegan as a companion willing to challenge the Doctor and disagree with him, less meek than Sarah Jane. Which is true from a personality standpoint, but we definitely agree that Sarah Jane was the more effective of the two.

Yes! I was so excited by that, even in my fiction-grieving. I was wandering around chirping about the cleverness for what was probably an irritatingly long time.
Still, I was in high school. Perfectly appropriate.
Ray Winstone has probably done the best of the cast, I think--I barely associate him with the show anymore. I did catch Jason Connery in Smallville and one of the Wishmaster movies, and I did laugh nigh unto crying.
Michael *sob* Praed.
Right up there on the inducing-puberty-on-the-spot list.
Who do you think the band was named after, P-C?
{Where and when is the New Robin Hood?}
Right up there on the inducing-puberty-on-the-spot list.
Yes, oh yes. Between him and The Professionals, it was a hell of a kick start.
