Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

CKR was also on last week's episode of Touching Evil. He looked... kinda rode hard and put away wet. Well, he was playing a traumatized-off-his-gourd-and-now-psychotic war vet so maybe the look was deliberate.

I have yet to see him play a good guy on a guest-starring role on TV. He's always playing some kind of psychotic abusive bastard. Why is that?

On an unrelated news, I'm watching my shiny new S6 SG DVDs, "Descent" specifically, and the red-shirt guy just ran across a bunch of ninjas on an abandoned Goa'uld ship! The hell?

He did a two-parter on Nikita where he was good. And man, was he ever. Seriously, he was just glowing. You don't see that side of him nearly often enough.

This is the first time in forever I've actually been able to watch Stargate on Friday night. And it's one I've seen. But I have to say that elevator conversation with Sam and Jack is one of my favorite scenes.

ETA: Wait, ninjas?

I tried a couple of NiKita episodes and it sadly didn't take (I think it was mainly 'cause of Roy Dupuis' mullet), but I badly want to watch this two-parter, just to see CKR.

Wait, ninjas?

Well, ninja-Jaffas, by the look of it. They're all in black, they've got these long-ass Japanese swords by their sides (for decoration--'cause it looks like they prefer using staff-weapons), plus there is all this twangy samurai music. Ahh, ethnic bad-guy tropes on this show. I dunno if I should be offended or something, but more often than not, they just crack me up.

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

Yeah, Descent just came around again in syndication, and I'd completely forgotten about the ninjas. I was all "the hell?"

Also, Vividcon! In only... four months! *bounce*

...crap, if I want to use my frequent flier miles I've gotta get on that.

Heh. This is me exactly. I'll watch that one any time I catch it, but otherwise never.

And man, was he ever.

Oh! The architect, with the cute glasses and cuter daughter! And then Nikita fucking loses the daughter in a mall? I loved that!

(I'm a wee bit tipsy.) brenda, where you been? Feels like forever since I've seen you around!

I know! I've been mostly dark for the last few months, but I've just moved and gotten internet at home again, so that should be at an end.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

that elevator conversation with Sam and Jack is one of my favorite scenes.

It's so golden. Love him.

And you the one who hooked me on due South in the first place.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Vonnie,, CKR's eps are in the first season of Nikita, which is out on DVD, so you could just rent that disc from Netflix. They're called "Gray" and "Choice".
