Cricket - neverending games with esoteric rules and tea breaks, largely ignored by Americans? Sounds like classic Who to me.

The Fifth Doctor's costume was a cricket uniform, after all.

I love how in the HHGthG books, cricket was why all alien races avoided contact with humans (the game is considered deeply offensive).

That kind of crossed my mind. Has he ever had a companion from southeast Asia?

What's the South-East Asia connection? If you're on the cricket analogy, that's big in South Asia, not SE. The Eighth Doctor had a companion in the novels, Anji Kapoor, of Indian descent. She was from London though.

Plus, a classic Who adventure stretched over days.

And in Black Orchid, he actually played cricket. He was the cricketiest of the Doctors.

And Douglas Adams wrote that story up as a Doctor Who adventure (it didn't get produced, obviously).

My goodness, The Losers was full of so much tasty and delicious men. What I found the most hot? The running and jumping. I don't know how much was stunt doubles and wire-work (one scene was obvious), but watching someone move like that and make it look effortless and weightless (in a non-fake way) is just jaw-dropping get-me-a-mop-and-a-bucket. HAWT!

JDM should always wear unbuttoned white dress shirts. IJS.

I wonder if the actor playing Cougar was hired for his physical skills and not so much the acting, because he got sidelined the worst.

I haven't read the comic, so it may be that his character is the silent type.

--And I didn't mean to imply that I thought he was a lesser actor. I was just trying to think of a reason why he seemed so absent, not just in lines, but in actually being on the camera. Like, not even as much silent reaction shots. And I finally checked and he's got a pretty extensive resume.

Well, he is a sniper. He has to avoid being seen.

True.

I mistakenly ventured into the imdb boards. Um, are people seriously hating on Zoe Saldana for taking roles where she's romantically involved with a white actor?

Of course they are. This is the Internet.
