Db would make a shiny purple-belly, if such a think is possible. He would definitly fill out one of those psuedo-fascist 'doorman' uniforms quite well. You know, men in uniform and all that.

Addendum: I just noticed that with the Boss Higgins photo at the top, my post is even more letcherous than intended. Hmmm.

Please don't flame me here, but I have never watched Angel, other than a couple of minutes here and there while channel surfing. But I agree with those that say it might appear Whedon is doing this just because Angel got canceled. But if Joss wants it, it will probably be done.

But instead of being with the Alliance, what do you think of the idea of DB as a Reaver?

Maybe Joss will surprise us all and give us the Muppet version of David B.

Could be Wash's new play toy.

I don't want to ever *see* a reaver up close enough to be able to point at the screen and say "THAT's David Doreanaz!!!" That would be just silly.

The shiny thing about the reavers is that you don't see them. What you don't see is always way scarier than what you do see. Like watching a spooky movie when you're all alone in the house - the teeniest creak has you propping chairs in front of all the doors and turning all the lights on. Reavers, Reaver ships and Reaver music should continue to have the same effect.

Gina Torres and Nathan Fillion were on Angel and Buffy respectively, and no one complained about that. When Angel comes back in new episodes, Adam Baldwin is playing a rather major part, so it seems fine to have David Boreanaz show up. We've already had a cameo from one of Angel's fights, so why not the man himself?

I hope you like Guinness, sir. I find it a refreshing substitute for . . . food.

Okay - now THAT would be funny.

I think it's fine as long as the role isn't too major...I think that it has to be clear that he's not the lead, but it should still be more than just a cameo. And I could really see him being a "Bad Guy", not Alliance persay, maybe another scavenger or something of the like.

Hmmm... maybe the "operative" from the pulled casting call?

Joss has always looked after his people. I think it's a win/win for everyone.

If Joss wants David in Serenity then I don't have a problem with it, because I know Joss will make it work. I can actually see David as an ex-army buddy of Mal and Zoe's.

Now if it was the execs at Universal that wanted David to draw in the Buffy and Angel crowd then I would have a problem with it.

It'd be good if he plays someone who is nothing at all like Angel or Mal. He would make a great bad guy, just like Nathan Fillion did, as long as he showed some versatility. And I have confidence in Joss's ability to keep his characters diverse.

I'm thinking he should be an Alliance officer. Anything roguish would be too close to Angel or Mal, and he doesn't have the sort of G-Man look you need for the Blue Hands.
