La Nutty in Natter. We don't need no steenking context:

Friends don't let friends look like Farrah Fawcett-Majors. That goes double if you're a man, and triple if you're the ruthless ruler of the known world.

From Bureaucracy"

Daniel C. Jensen

I hear tell a city council meeting got so worked up about snowbound fire plugs once that a member stood up and proposed that nearby fire plugs should be cleared two weeks before any fire.

It was voted on immediately and passed.

Topic!Cindy

Daniel, I didn't know there was a city outside Sang Sacre, run by Buffistas!

DxMachina

Cindy, I think you missed the part about it being voted on immediately...

Friends don't let friends look like Farrah Fawcett-Majors. That goes double if you're a man, and triple if you're the ruthless ruler of the known world.

I'm trying to guess the context and all I can come up with is Khan. KHAAAANNNN!

DavidS says something profound in Angel:

I feel like people who are obsessing with Lorne as the Mole Of Evil may possibly have misplaced their frontal lobes deep in the cloaca of Pod!Giles.

Box Set starts out comparing series, again:

Katie M:

Actually, Farscape managed to hang on to a pretty good arc/standalone balance right up to the end, I think.

Consuela:

Pretty much, more so than Angel, I think. But the characters remember, and the characterization evolves over time (unlike, for instance, Stargate *g*).

Katie M:

Hey! Daniel's hair is much shorter than it used to be.

Consuela:

Thank god, or I'd never know what season it was.

... actually, even that doesn't help that much, just gives me a rough estimate of "early" or "late". ::shrugs::

Clearly the makeup & costuming people need to learn the fun of changing hairstyles to match the character's emotional states, like on Farscape. S2 Crazy!Hair, S4 Glamour Eyebrows, and so forth.

JenP:

Yuh-huh. And Jack's is much grayer. They totally evolve. Sheesh.

Katie M:

And Jack had that really hot period, S3-5!

To be fair, there has been some character development, particularly when it comes to Daniel. (Jack too, but as Jack's character development is at least somewhat tied to a decrease in IQ, I try to ignore it as much as possible.)

Emily:

And Teal'c's face slowly loses that I-smell-something-foul look.

Katie M:

Yes! Which CJ must have been incredibly grateful for.

ita :

Indeed.

Sue, in Natter:

Context? You must be joking.

Is anyone else picturing Gus in a milkmaid outfit right now?

Allyson, about Angel's constant reinvention:

Vampire broods, cracks a weak smile, gets heart ripped out, flips the fuck out, learns the true meaning of christmas, rinse, repeat.

In Natter, I pitch it, and ita knocks it out of the park...

ita: Wow. Just heard that a cousin found out her fiancé was otherwise engaged. Like, engaged to get married next week. Perhaps he intended to be divorced from his 2004 bride in time to marry my cousin next May. No one's sure.

Why do people do things like that?

DX: Short-term memory loss?

ita: He'll be lucky if that's all that's lost.

Yet another "makes perfect sense for Buffistas, less so for the rest of the universe", from Natter:

DXMachina: Bob pre-dates Batman, carrot-wise, anyway.

Natter:

ita:

which now works, thanks to a D-link card -- the Linksys just didn't have enough granularity of settings, so I never managed to make it work with the same brand of hub

msbelle:

you misspelled blah blah blah blah blah.
