What's the connecting thread - Simon?
Actually it's Christopher Walken's wife, who's the biggest casting director on the east coast.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Still don't like Fiona. Don't hate her like I used to, but don't like her yet.

Interesting. Huh.
Fiona's growing on me, but yeah.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I like the character a lot more than the actress.
Sometimes, I like to imagine her played by Stephanie Romanov or Amy Acker.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
I had a moment last night with Jeffrey Donovan and Gabrielle Anwar and the lotion girl where I was all "Who are these fugly, squinty, skin-stretched hags?". Harsh, but there it was. Fiona equally pisses me off and annoys me just about as much as ever.

Ooh, yeah.

Oh, so Georgianne Walken is Mrs. Christopher? I mean, it makes sense but you can't take stuff like that for granted either. I noticed the same actor bingo, Brenda. But I never finished the whole series...it's pretty intense, and there's no cornerboys kicking it on the couch talking about McNuggets to break it up. And I was never sure where they set it, although the governor being such a tough-on-crime douchebag does kind of make Florida a good guess during that time. I never knew Ivanek could be so loathesome...I mean, he's always "behind Blue Eyes" guy, even though his eyes are brown, but mostly he's a mild-mannered bureaucrat(And my choice to play Patrick Fitzgerald in the Blago movie, if there is one.)

It's funny. I was just so convinced it was Florida I basically thought it was canon. Apparently not.
I noticed also that the music director is Chris Tergesen. That can't be a coincidence.

Heh. Except for the fact that Bodie is totally one of the bangers in S1. But yeah, I take your point.

I could be down with that.

You're right; he was. Damn, Ms. Brenda, your shit is tight today. Fitz is taller, but the second I saw him I was like "You go, Ed Danvers." Of course, I was oh-so-ardently hoping for a Rove perp walk at that point.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I enjoy Burn Notice as "candy" television, but I really dislike Fiona, and it throws me when other characters react to her as if she's the hottest thing walking, when to me she is terribly skinny and not pretty at all.
As for Leverage, I didn't realize it was about thieves and conmen! I ought to start watching it.
I like In Plain Sight, and Marshal Marshall is a big part of why. I also identify with Mary, in that I think she is what I would have become if I turned my anger outward instead of in. Also because the people she loves keep fucking up her life.
