Eyre Series: I'd say it gets cooler, yeah. The thing about it is that after the first one, it just gets more literary. Thursday jumps into more books and more characters get involved, which I think is just huge fun. *g* Which is why it's one of my absolute favorite series.
Clive Owen: The main things I've actually seen him in were King Arthur (did I mention how much I love that movie?) and Gosford Park, I think. I've also seen bits of Second Sight, which is a dark cool PBS Mystery! series he did.
Bill Nighy: Is awesome in everything. You really need to see the I Capture the Castle Film! (He's the father there.) He's also in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (the film) as Slartibartfast. He's a real jerk in Constant Gardener (plays it brilliantly though, and that whole movie is incredible). He's *hysterical* in Love, Actually (another of my must see Brit movies). He's all over the place, really...
Jeremy Brett: was Sherlock Holmes in the 80s and 90s, and brilliant at it.
Coupling: You know is by Stephen Moffat, right? *g* Also brilliant...only the Brits can make a show that's all about sex and still about *people*. And it's just plain hysterical, 'cause, y'know...Stephen Moffat.
Jason Momoa: Thick as in size, or thick as in brains? *snerk* (I know very little about SGA actors. I just think his character is cool. And the dreads, and I can totally see him monster fighting, so...yeah, he works for Spike in my head.)
And pardon the oldness...I let a lot of email and LJ slip while I was finishing up the novel, so playing catchup this weekend!
