actor that played Captain Freedom

Yeah...he was good there, too.Wacko(or Method) or both, apparently, though. "Vic Hitler...you ever think of changing your name?"
"No, why?"

(Sigh) "No reason." La Rue was FX before its time, wasn't he? I think I watched up to Season 3 on DVD(and wrote this big gushy essay for The Hat, too) but my queue is so long, I haven't checked to see if more are out.

OMG - you have no idea what's coming, do you? If you've only seen thru season 3, OMG. No, SERIOUSLY.

Or did you watch it back in the day, and the reviews were on what was available?

Oh, yeah, I watched it all in syndication once when I was, like sixteen, but there's a lot of stuff I haven't seen since.(I still remember that Franz punched the jerk chief in the nose in the finale and it still makes me happy to think of it,but there's a lot I probably don't remember.) I loved the Smirking Black Criminal that Belker was always arresting that gave the funny names every time (i.e. Marcel Marceau and Jean-Claude Killy) And Belker's end of his mom's calls.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I have been watching "Coupling" season 2 and man I have been helpless with laughter today. That gets me in my funny bone even though I saw the series before. Jeff's birthday episode just made me lose it.

Nobody plays here first, at least. Although I still vaguely remember when people were SOL unless they drove to LA or San Diego. Wasted on me, unfortunately...I'm the anti-Gleek. I've never moved so fast to change a channel in my life. Despite my high-school choir experience.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'm not sure I needed to know that.

(what with the whole needing to leave the house sometimes thing)
