A Rewatch Thought

[lls_mutant]

So, I figured I'd look and see if I could glean anything additional about Hoshi off of some of the old episodes. Unfortunately, that meant I rewatched The Captain's Hand, which while far from my least favorite, is definitely in the bottom third.



1.) Hoshi has a mouth on him. He swears several times on deck. Mild, made-for-TV swears, but swears nonetheless. Watching this episode reaffirmed my theory that yes, he does have a very different professional side and personal side. And while I've been writing Narcho as my swearer, it's nice to know Hoshi's not always so clean and sweet.

2.) Dee and Lee have NO chemistry. At least not in this episode. The actors are trying, but it's just not there. Granted, given how their relationship works out, that's not necessarily a bad thing. But Kandyse McClure is SO freaking pretty.

3.) I forgot this was the episode with my favorite ever Starbuck-Apollo line... "You have a brain?" Hee.

4.) It was funny to watch Hoshi knowing he eventually becomes Admiral. And you know, thinking aobut that line about someone people respect, I STILL wonder if that wasn't supposed to be Gaeta, and they changed the person but not the line when they gave Gaeta the mutiny storyline.

5.) Brad Dryborough was officially saddled with the absolute worst haircut on the show. If he's got a wife, I'll bet she giggled every time she saw him with it.

I didn't rewatch the more interesting storyline that they never again did anything with of Laura struggling with the abortion issue, because I really just had it on for something in the background as I cleaned the room.

I miss my show.



Toby started back up at OT today just for general body issues. Apparently, he's got really weak trunk strength, which I kind of knew but then makes me worry that I'm doing something wrong. I'm trying not to think that, because that's not productive. I hate the therapy game. Plus, I had to chase Trevor all over, and try to get him away from whatever Toby's doing.

Ugh. Is it the weekend yet?

LOL, the big ol' teddy bear gots some fangs does he? *will do a ReWatch as soon as finals are over*

tracy_loo_who has scans of the cast book and Brad mentioned that on his half-page. "The Worst Haircut in TV History" I think he called it. XDXD (it's so weird to know that Hoshi was originally a woman...)

A Japanese woman, apparently!

and probably another NPC destined for Gaius's sheets

Yes he does, the very little we know of him.

And yeah, that amuses me to no end- both that he realized how bad his haircut was and that it was originally a female character. The idea of him playing Thorne cracks me up, too. I just can't see it.
