Oh, and Callum Keith Rennie. Although come to think of it, his character was rather... eh? Nice, and all, and cute-little-girl-having, but hardly memorable except for having architectural models in his house.
I don't fancy spending the next month trying to get librarian out of the carpet.

A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much anything else that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
It seemed like every time I turned on La Femme Nikita, it was either a) Nikita angsting over Michael, b) Michael angsting over Nikita, c) Michael using Nikita's love for him for some Section-related intrigue, or d) just after such a betrayal, Nikita putting on a brave face and leaving that life behind, after which a).
Well...yeah. What's your point?
What, you wanted plots that made sense? Continuity that didn't make you want to put your eyes out?

Except I don't think joining the Navy makes you automatically 6'4", beefcake, and Canadian.
One, I don't believe that anyone on any of those shows are actually 6'4".
Two, what if you're already two of three?

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
But I liked Burkhoff.
He's the techie guy, yes? The young one, rather than the ponytailed one?
The only armed force less likely to show up in a TV series is probably the Coast Guard
Oh, surely they've shown up. On Baywatch, or Miami Vice, or some other show that would incorporate drugrunning.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
They've shown up on CSI Miami.

There you go!
Now, the Merchant Marine I have more trouble with.

What is the Merchant Marine? What does it do? I know -- I could look it up, but, I'm already here ...

Art Crawl!!!
I thought that the merchant marine was just the guys who worked on regular commercial shipping type ships?

They have, like, an academy, though. I know someone who attended it.
Here you go. Apparently you get "a bachelor of science degree, a merchant marine license, and an appointment as a commissioned officer on reserve or active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces." What that actually translates to I'm not sure; presumably you'd work with shipping if we had to ship stuff in a war.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
On Baywatch, or Miami Vice, or some other show that would incorporate drugrunning.
They were the bad guys on Baywatch, so I'm not sure if they'd count it as press.
