SManton: << >For the Avon fans - I know there's a few of us around - just what *is* it about >him that you find makes him that much more interesting? (And no fair pointing to >the leather :-)) >> At times, I've wondered if the unique appeal doesn't come Avon being that rarity of rarities--an super intellectual with sex appeal. You can't point to many in popular media or fictional culture. The model of most Western heroes tends toward the physically courageous and tough who are willing to sacrifice. Avon may show occasional hints of these, but they aren't his forte...at least that's the way it seemed to me. Leah

It always seemed so "not" Vila. Then again, didn't we even see Vila pilot the ship a time or two later on? I suppose they all had to learn every position! Annie

There are about five minutes of relevant plot and a lot of filler (including scenes of Servalan heroically attempting to explain said plot to Jarriere, with a notable lack of success.) >> I've always noticed that, too. In fact, I remember often fast-forwarding through large parts of Gambit when re-watching it. Annie

But what does Avon (before he > runs for the force wall <g>) I think Avon's station handles all of the sensor telemetry and system management instrumentation. The bit of having to run for the force wall always annoys me, though -- that console next to the couches seems like a really illogical place to put the controls for any combat-necessary functions. and whichever's *not* on communications do > during a battle?

Watching Blake and Avon fight is fun. Let's get back to that, shall we? (Another lure - *why* is watching Blake and Avon fight fun?) Sally *I *know* the temptation to respond is almost irresistable. I know I didn't manage to always resist. But I'm seriously asking that you don't answer the flames, not because you don't have the right to, just because it won't go away if you do. If no one picks up the red rag, it will eventually disappear. PS - to anyone *else* who's thinking of leaving, can I just I wish you wouldn't, since that seems to what the trolls always want. Also, can I say that as a reluctant kill-filer, I've found a lot of the ones I'm still getting *are* still B7-related, interesting and fun to read. Try that first. Now I promise to get back to Blakes 7. _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
