Yes, I can still bring a montage to mind of him being all of that. So many moments ahead.

2022-10-10 12:02:42 +0000 UTCA bit of interesting trivia that was never covered in the show (so, not technically a spoiler). Horton used to be the Kurgan's watcher. That's probably what sent him over the edge.

2022-10-09 03:03:39 +0000 UTCYES! I absolutely LOVED Wiseguy. Jim Byrnes had a great role in it. I’ve got it on DVD around here somewhere….

2022-10-09 00:35:45 +0000 UTCWelcome to season 2! Shelley, you naturally would not have known, but you have seen Jim Byrnes (who plays Joe Dawson) before. He has a very brief scene as an anthropology professor in the infamous SPN episode Bugs. 🙌. Another reason I don’t consider Bugs as bad as people say.

2022-10-08 22:42:44 +0000 UTCBased on your description, I'm going to call Joe Dawson, "Good Vibes Joe" from now on. "you're like his Giles" I knew you'd like the idea of watchers: the coat, the outfit even the bookstore definitely gives a bit of a blueprint for early season Gile's looks and the library in Buffy imo The hand to hand fighting in this episode was already better than anything in S1. I think the new intro is an upgrade. Didn't love the clunky writing in the S1 opening. Thematically it makes more sense for a watcher (Good Vibes Joe) to do the voiceover as opposed to Duncan giving his own history. The song still rocks in both openings though
