They're still doing the schtick! Ah ha ha ha!

Hey, Doctor Who/Torchwood fans!

The lead character on Knight Rider (Look, I don't watch it, but my default is NBC when the tv's on and I'm not watching anything, 'k?) just walked into his fictional workplace dressed for Halloween as Captain Jack Harkness. And they had the "Isn't he gay?" "He's omnisexual!" exchanges!

Hee. That's awesome. XD

I adore KR precisely for lines like that!

[glockgal.livejournal.com]

Wow that's just a myriad of geeky joy, LOLOLOL!!!

...GLEE. Captain Jack engenders love across bounds of time, space, canon, and geekdom!

[prillalar]

That. Is fabulous.

*note to self: look for this scene on YouTube.*

I don't even watch Torchwood and I'm applauding that. :-D

HA! Cross-fertilization of geekdom!

Oh oh oh!!! BBC slashiness is leaking onto network prudishness!!!
Excellent! Omnisexual indeed.
Never watched the new KR. Any good?

*cracks up*

And they stayed in costume the whole episode! :D

I've caught a couple of minutes here and there (because of the "NBC default" thing) but haven't actually watched it. Not planning to start, either, as have enough on plate as it is.

[amanuensis1.livejournal.com]

Is it not! I mean, it's a BRITref! And it's on U.S. mainstream tv!

[amanuensis1.livejournal.com]

And across the pond, which is even more profound! :D

[amanuensis1.livejournal.com]

Innit? Innit?

[amanuensis1.livejournal.com]

I know it'll be there! :D

[amanuensis1.livejournal.com]

Exactly. Exactly!

[amanuensis1.livejournal.com]

WHO KNOWS WHAT IT WILL BREED.

[exbentley]

damn right he is! eee, that's brilliant.

[amanuensis1.livejournal.com]

Still haven't technically watched it! :D Kind of peripherally kept eyeing it as the show went on, watching for more schtick. But they kept the costumes on the whole episode!

*thinks your icon's a hoot, though can't identify source*

[amanuensis1.livejournal.com]

And they did the schtick a few times, and they stayed in costume for the whole ep! :D

Apparently, it's a quote from The 40 Year Old Virgin. I've never watched the movie, but I saw that icon on backseaticons and just cracked up.

Your icon certainly has a pretty effective insult! :D

[angiepen.livejournal.com]

Hee! OK, that rocks. :D So maybe there was one bit of that show that was actually worth watching.

No, seriously, I wanted to like it. I loved the original (of course, considering my age at the time... but no, it really was a fun show) and had hopes for the new one. I watched... I think it was two and a half episodes. I was halfway through the one where Michael and what's-her-name the smart Asian chick (but no cliches, really! [eyeroll]) were supposedly undercover as newlyweds and Michael couldn't stay in character for thirty seconds to save his life. And hey, you know, maybe their lives were in danger if he tipped off the bad guys...? [facepalm] Anyway, lots of stupidity, but that ep just killed me and I bailed. [sigh]

I wish I'd seen the Captain Jack bit, though. :D
