chickenLeonard Roberts, who played the horrid Forest in S4 of Buffy, was on Tru Calling tonight. His character was very different. Glad the actor and character aren't one and the same. Still a pretty badly written show, but the directing isn't too bad, and the sets and costumes are OK, and you all know the real reason I like to watch it anyway. ;-)

keever and thebratqueen said it all, pretty much, the Couch of Gay, the slashy sunlight scene, even I -- someone who isn't big with the Angel/Spike lovin' -- even I adored that scene. It really is a treat when they throw these scenes in every week.
2.) I was beginning to wonder why Harmony wasn't getting much screen time. Thank god she's back. Now if they could only up Lorne's time a little. Please.
3.) Leaving aside the stupid sexist Garden of Eden crap, it is still odd that Eve's name is so suggestive of the word Ev(e)-il ...
4.) Will we get to find out what all those symbols on the walls and on Lindsey's body mean? Or rather, when will be find out?
5.) I LOVE being Spoiler-free. I would've been so bored if I had already been spoiled for the Lindsey thing. Phew.
6.) I disagree withkeever about Drusilla. She said: Really, was Drusilla necessary at all here ... Maybe not, plotwise and Spike/Angel-wise, but given the more male-centric universe here compared to Buffy/Sunnydale, I am always glad to have a few more women on the show. So I say, yay Dru! Although the misleading nature of the WB's trailers is indeed beginning to annoy.
7.) I had a brief, fanatical belief that the person in Eve's bed was going to be Lilah, not Lindsey, and so I was even more surprised by Lindsey. Not that ME would really contemplate having a completely evil lesbian duo, no, they don't want to touch any Bad Stereotypes with a ten foot pole and I don't blame them (Basic Instinct-ish stereoptypes or whatever). So I just don't know why I thought it would be Lilah. Because I wouldn't want that either. Bad. Ew. It's just that part of me wanted to see it anyway. Bad, pervy, evil thoughts.
