Nora - Mr. Saxon was mentioned by name in "The Runaway Bride," his name appeared in an article headline in the newspaper that the Absorbaloff was reading in "Love & Monsters," and Vote Saxon posters appeared in the Torchwood episode "Captain Jack Harkness."
Kaylee: Is that him? Mal: That's the buffet table. Kaylee: Well how can we be sure, unless we question it?

Thanks, Invisible Green! I think I need to do some rewatching of stuff. Also need to see Torchwood.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Huh. Maybe the sluttiness is a residual effect of the post-Time War trauma.
I think maybe Captain Jack rubbed off on him a bit. Er, maybe I should rephrase that?
In TDF, I'm wondering if Bob died of the same mysterious and inexplicable cause that killed NatashaKate Beckinsale in Van Helsing. They didn't make it clear if it was the effort of resurrecting and killing Justin, the spell that brought him back dissipating once Justin was gone, or something that was going to happen regardless.
The Carnivàle-esque take-life-to-give-life thing certainly helps explain what was so awful about Bob finding a way to raise his beloved from the dead that he was imprisoned for all eternity. Didn't he say that he restored life to her more than once?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Er, maybe I should rephrase that?
Oh, please don't!

I thought that it was a result of the lifeforce going from Justin through Bob to Harry. Harry kept shouting "let go, Bob". The life force going from Harry to Bob seemed to be conducted through Bob. I think that the force going back into him after such a short time is what killed him, like overloading a battery.

This makes sense, although it seems odd that while a lot of lifeforce was taken from Harry, he only got zapped back with it for a second or two. But Bob kept absorbing it, so that "overload" theary makes lots of sense.
Only, poor dear Harry just got his life shortened (good thing wizards live for a long time!) cuz he didn't get it all back (just enough to magically release his bonds that he couldn't undo before for whatever reason (and which were also a pretty shade of blue).
Maybe if they'd shown magical bonds that got obliterated with the redistribution of lifeforce my inner magic-geek would be pleased as punch, and my inner make-sense-damnit!-geek would be satisfied.

Nora and Invisible Green, good catch! I hadn't picked up on any of that.

Art Crawl!!!
We're getting season 2 of Life on Mars in August!!!
Matt Roush: Happy to help. BBC America recently unveiled some of its summer plans, which include the return of Life on Mars in August. Also, as a cult alert, look for second seasons of Hex and Afterlife, as well as a fifth season of guilty pleasure Footballers Wive$, in June
Ooh, and Afterlife -- that was a good show. (They've been bombarding us with Hex ads for weeks now.)
