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!
Wash: I mean, I'm the one she swore to love, honor and obey. Mal: Listen... She swore to obey? Wash: Well, no, not...

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.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
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.

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.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
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.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

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

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Ginger: she won't ask questions when she doesn't understand something, because she thinks that makes her look stupid.
