Sentinel 1x7 Rogue

I'm going to have a lot of livejournal catching up to do at work tomorrow. Freaking Christmas! Have a recap.

1x7 Rogue "'Give a speech?' 'Yeah!' 'I'd rather have root canal,' Jim declares. Off Blair's bemused/beseeching reaction, we cut to Jim crossing the campus... Just once I wish a show would show us what happened between the guy saying 'I won't do it' and the guy doing it. But this show is this show, and so I guess it couldn't have shown us the events which changed Jim's mind without losing its PG rating."

It's weird how Brackett never features on the show again, even if he's in LOTS of fic. I suspect they wished they hadn't let him know about Jim and hoped we'd forget.

Ha! I don't THINK so.

I might have filled in that gap in a totally porny way once :;whistles innocently::

Ha! Beautiful!

The beauty of getting into the fandom for a so-long-over show like this is that everything I think of is already out there.

In Jane's journal. :D

I only got here 18 months ago and that happens to me all the time; I come up with an idea and find out it's been written a zillion times ::pouts::

But I can sense a missing scene where logically sex HAD to occur, oh, yes, I can. Fandom has trained me well :-)

Glad you liked it!

But I can sense a missing scene where logically sex HAD to occur... and god knows they're so rare in TS.

Not.

Very rare; sometimes we only get three an episode :;nods::

OK, this is what I heard..

...but this was from another fan, albeit an old, original, there-since-the-start fan but still just another fan and so this may very well not be true (you know how it is) (o:)

- that Jeff Kaake and RB didn't get along *at all*, that JK thought he was better than the show and behaved like an ass and that was why Brackett never returned.

A shame... Wonder what happened to the guy? Someone should write a fic about it. ::giggle::

Re: OK, this is what I heard..

Ooh, interesting scuttlebutt! Silly man, if so; he'd have made a good recurring villain. And I don't think I've seen him in anything else. Let me check IMDb

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0433931/

Ohhhh; he was in Viper a lot; that explains the Sentinel connection, I guess.

The doctor concurs that if it's released "we are looking at a death toll in the thousands."
Or the dozens, or even the single-figures since Ebola is only spread by direct contact with an infected person/animal.

I know I've said it before, but there's really no point in trying to make sense of a TS plot - that way lies madness and it *seriously* messes with your enjoyment of the show. *G*

I try to just remark on the inconsistency and move on, but it hurts sometimes.

Friggin' ebola.

Sentinel 1x7 Rogue

Enjoyed reading your post and the responses! But the best thing is just looking at all these wonderful TS J/B icons! Blimey!

I never was in The Sentinel fandom, per se, but I love the series and have been reading the fanfic forever! Whenever I need a little warmth and comfort, I can rely on Jim and Blair's love (as written by the fans) to give me what's needed. 82ProspectTheSentinelAdultFictionArchive is at the top of my "favorites" list (right after amazon dot com and Area52RecentStories) and has been for ages. I check the new fic posted there at least twice a week! Thanks for sharing. Love, max

I keep looking at the picture of Blair clinging to Jim on the bridge and... where are Blair's feet? Did he wrap them around Jim? ::fans self::
I love this show.

It's kind of hard to tell what's going on. I think one of his legs is in front of Jim's, foot on the same tile, and the other is bent behind Jim, sort of wrapped around his waist. (I love it too!)
