Was I the only one who halfway expected him to be wearing blue gloves?

I loved WDJ :-) - and I am so happy he is not a one-episode character. But I never realized he is that tall! I mean in this episode he looked taller than Angel - or is that my imagination?

My days of taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

No it's not your imagination, he certainly DID look taller than David. Does anyone know if Adam is now another Joss Hat-Trick? I don't remember seeing him on Buffy, but then again half of the cast was buried under latex.

You guys are killin' me with "WDJ"! Too funny... And I don't think he ever said his name, just that he was the new liason. WDJ works for me.

I'm always surprised when I come across Adam Baldwin playing non-dumb. (I had the same reaction stumbing onto Independence Day on some cable channel or another a few weeks back.)



That's actually when I first saw Adam (all-American, clean cut, military yumminess), so it was weird at first for me to see him as Jayne. But then I found that scruffy, name-takin, butt-kickin' Jayne was just as yummy. *sigh* Adam rocks!

(I haven't seen Underneath yet, but I'm SOOO looking forward to seeing him as Hamilton! and in a suit! *sigh*

I picked up on that also. When I heard it I began trying to remember which ep of Buffy Anya (I think it was her) had spoken that line. Very funny.




It was Anya, 4th season episode Superstar, when Jonathan takes over.

The whole shrimp reference made me really happy, because I had just paused the TiVo before that line to riff on it with my fiance. "All this talk about poodles, remember the shrimp thing with Anya?" And then, ta-da!, shrimp reference.

God, I love the way the Buffyverse knows how to pay off a joke!

I first saw Adam in "Full Metal Jacket". Animal Mother was a little more like Jayne IF he had been through the war.

I'd given some thought to movin' off the edge -- not an ideal location -- thinkin' a place in the middle.

I read a while back that Joss wanted to cast Morena Baccarin as Eve, but she had a scheduling conflict and couldn't do it. Wouldn't that have been cool - to have Jayne hunting down Inara on "Angel"?

I think I read on IMDb.com that Adam Baldwin's like six-four or something. That is 13 inches taller than me!
