You don't watch L&O: UK?
There's a L&O UK??
Looking at IMDB, I see he's been in lots of things on British TV that passed me by. This is the one place where the 'I hate UK TV' thing counts against me.
Spike: Lots of fuss over one girl. Other things to do around here--important things. Angel: You know that whoosh thing you do when you're suddenly not there anymore? I love that.

I don't watch it. But a friend of mine has been posting amusing picspams.

Is it actually worth me breaking my near-total* moratorium on UK TV for?
*I watch Doctor Who, Torchwood and Being Human. And those via the internet.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I wonder if he is the one who came up with the whole mind-wipe, switch-out personality thing or if he refined the idea. Or if he just does it really well. Do we know?
It's explained in Epitaph 1 that Topher didn't come up with the idea but he figured out a way to make the process go much faster. It used to take hours to do an implant and now it takes minutes.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
Ah, thanks, Jon. I've been meaning to watch it. It's on iTunes. Guess I better get at it.
That makes me feel better about Topher. He's a geek, but not an evil genius.

Sepinwall put it really well:
He's worked so hard and so fast proving he was the smartest kid in the room that he's only now coming to realize he should have slowed down to ask "Should I do this?" before he asked "Can I do this?"

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
I don't like Adelle's new haircut. It makes her look far less scary-authority person and too vulnerable. Topher, OTOH, suddenly pinging me as super hot. Maybe it's the tight tshirt?

Biceps and a conscience can be a powerful combo.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Biceps and a conscience can be a powerful combo.
...that actually summarises a rather wide swathe of the fictional men I go thunk over.

Well, no - there are also funny and the geeky. But the biceps-and-conscience crowd are certainly scrumptious.
This opening ep is sounding v. positive! Yay!
(Seska, I don't know about Law and Order: UK - from what I remember, they basically invented an AU Justice System, since our own doesn't mesh with the way things work in the US, upon which the structure of the show hinges, so...possibly not worth watching if you're mostly TV-avoidant? But, fwiw, I have a real soft spot for the Horatio Hornblower series, in which you can admire Jamie Bamber playing Hornblower's adorably puppyish, heroic (and epileptic) BFF Archie, who, other than possessing (secret) biceps and a conscience, is pretty much the anti-Apollo.
