Spike: We got a history, him and me. Fred: What? Spike: It was a long time ago. He was a young Watcher, fresh out of the academy when we crossed paths. It was a, what-you-call battle of wills and blood was spilled. Vendettas were sworn. It was a whole-- Fred: My God you're so full of crap. Spike: Yeah. Okay.

Make room for me. I was just rewatching a couple of eps today. Adore.

Mmm. Avon.

The Boston PBS station, so far as I could tell, only showed Colin Baker's episodes when I was a kid.

That would have been Tom Baker probably, as Colin Baker is mid-80s, well into my Who viewing.

Oh, that reminds me, last week I finally watched the first few eps of Farscape.

This reminds me of a miscommunication Paul and I had tonight while watching Due South. Two nights ago, Paul mentioned that Fraser reminded him of Captain Carrot. Tonight, I said, "Carrot crossed with Kryton." He looked really confused until I clarified that I meant Kryton, not Crichton.

Though I'm now amusing myself with Kryton/Crichton, and wondering who I could bribe.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

There's a new D&D campaign setting where you can basically play a living robot. I started out consciously modelling my character on Kryten. (He has a decent Int of 14, but Wis and Cha are both 6. He's great fun to play.)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Sorry, I just love Jake Johannsen.

He had the best bit when he was coming up in SF. It was about how the punks on Haight street had hair that was....trying to get away...from their heads.

Sorry, I can't replicate his timing with ellipsis. But you can imagine it.

And I still think about that when I see certain egregious hairdos.

(Incidentally, that's a great unused band name of the New Wave era: Egregious Hairdos. Up there with Disturbed Furniture and Practically Ashtrays.)

Speaking of Due South, Ple, I will be sending you Slings & Arrows so you can revel in Paul Gross being insane and sexy and charismatic.

t confession Billytea, were I younger and not married and blah blah blah AS and all that jazz, I'd find that incredibly sexy

Signed, first long-term online handle was from Red Dwarf, sat through every single RD telethon the local PBS station had, and spent her first trimester watching the DVDs, and re-reading the tie-in novels, script books, and RL's biography.

I'm totally down with that.

I'm due for a rewatch of Men With Brooms so I can see him naked, too.

Hmmm. This is probably best whined about in LJ.

Mmm. Avon.
Verily.

But let's not forget Crichton the robot from Buck Rogers!

Well, okay, let's. But he's there, just the same.

And on that note, I must sleep.
