Heh. Sumi, I was right there with ya on the "but, but, there's gotta be better ways to commit supercrimes than breaking open ATMs and paying for a car with a bag full of cash? Geeez, Clark. Dumb."

And I didn't like Chloe's hair. It was too pale blonde.

Okay, I watched my tape of Highlander "The Gathering" and now I'm thinking that they intended Richie to be an Immortal all along -- esp. after reading the synopses of the 2nd episode where he is searching for his "real" parents.

Is that right?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Oh, and paying for a $240,000 car with cash from an ATM? That was 12,000 twenty-dollar bills. Accountants everywhere gnash their teeth in horrified fury.

Well, why pay at all when you are a SUPER-VILLAIN?

See, it upset me so much -- his serious lack of real super-villainy that I doubleposted.

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

It's never made clear on the show, and if I remember correctly it's one of those things that behind-the-scenes stories on differ. It's always seemed likely to me, though.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I always figured it was in the plan because of the way Duncan and Connor both respond to Richie in the pilot. It's definitely there.

Yeah, that's what I got -- that they sensed him before he was there and then Connor makes some comment about "watching the boy".

Now, I really don't get why my friend (who turned me onto both Highlander and Buffy) thinks that Richie becoming an Immortal was the Jump the Shark moment.

I am still at the moment dazed and glassy-eyed from shirtless, dirty and crazy Lex. I hardly even noticed what happened in the rest of the show. Guhhhh.

Mmmmm. Lex.

Actually, I wasn't as let down as I expected to be - except for the bits with Helen and Lionel. Sville can't do villians to save their lives. Super!Bo wasn't as craptacular as I expected. Besides squealing for almostnaked!Lex I also bounced up out of my chair for voice of Terance Stamp (I know he's been on the show before - but I re-watched the Limey recently and am in lurve with him). Also happy to see Classic!Drew in the credits at the end. (Executive Story Editor - like that means anything - but still.)

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Oh, another dumb thing about paying for the $240,000 car with cash? In the real world, all cash transactions above $10K get reported to the IRS, unless the dealership is crooked, too.
