Oh, that's right. Brad Dourif was an insane Vulcan on Voyager. I'd totally forgotten.

The world is a weird place.

Brad Dourif played serial killers on Babylon 5

I thought he played one of the techno-wizards and was a kind-hearted priest. It was the episode "Garden at Gesthemane (sp?)," I believe.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

I've never understood the Speedman appeal. He looks very...dull, to me.

It's the sweet and dumb boy-toy appeal. I imagine him to be good-natured and low-maintenance, sort of like a bouncing golden retriever. And enthusiastic if unimaginative in the sack.

Indeed. Doesn't the universe end if they appear in the same scene together?

Wow. Talk about the creep-off to end all creep-offs.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

And enthusiastic if unimaginative in the sack.

Well, if the guy in question takes direction well, it's a good start.

Passing Through Gethsemane. He was a monk. And also a serial killer, prior to be being a monk. But not a technomage.

He wasn't a Vulcan on Voyager. It was one of the Detective Tuvok cases, and they did a mind-meld, so maybe that's the source of confusion. And then in another episode he died heroically, but I'd given up by then.

I can remember all this crap, but do I have to look up the spelling of Gethsemane. There's something very wrong with me.

Oh, oh, not Vulcan. Betazoid? I can't believe I'm going to have to go look this up.

A monk, right. For some reason, I was remembering the monk as a technomage. It's been a few years.

Always Anti-fascist!

Wow, I couldn't think of him as a creep now...the doc being the kind of damaged soul that lends my fan's heart to great character love, although with the doc, it's not porn for me. I would like to see him get somebody on TV, though. Although he wouldn't be in Deadwood if not for the grave-robbing convictions so maybe it's not hard to see how that actor got the call.
