4x07 Mountie Sings the Blues | Smirk

Their attention was largely diverted by a number of women who were performing what I'm told is a form of modern dance.

this is ray, he likes his personal space

this is benton, he also likes ray's personal space

Stand a little closer why don’t you

“Personal space is the region surrounding a person which they regard as psychologically theirs. Most people value their personal space and feel discomfort, anger, or anxiety when their personal space is encroached.[1] Permitting a person to enter personal space and entering somebody else’s personal space are indicators of perception of the relationship between the people. There is an intimate zone reserved for lovers, children and close family members.”

my mom watching this scene: Oh, so he (Fraser) is in love with him (Ray).

smthin important for me in my understanding of mr benton bentoni fraser is that yes he's got the martyr syndrome and yes he was raised in a pretty austere (but loving) environment and was probably one of those kids with an unnervingly large vocabulary and he has real issues related to living up to his father's "image" and that image itself being tarnished and doesn't often allow himself to feel his feelings and has definitely always been an outsider to his peers but...

he is also an adrenaline junkie

my man isn't just jumping off moving cars and getting in trouble and putting himself in hospital a few times a month solely for the sake of the good of the people, he is in danger to Feel Alive and if some smart mean-for-fun dommy sadist figured this out he could get himself bruised (and bossed around) whenever he wanted..... oh look, the show introduced her in s2 👀👀👀

A while ago, I found this pic, and then came across this on TV tropes:

Leslie Nielsen, who played Sgt. Buck Frobisher, was the son of a Mountie in real life. During his first appearance on the show, he took Paul Gross aside and told him that he was lacing his boots incorrectly and then proceeded to teach him the proper way for a Mountie to tie his shoes.

I find the whole quote extremely endearing (and also vividly Canadian).

P.S. If you want to see more Due South stuff, go check out the fest for the 30th anniversary! There's a lot to see! @ds30below

Reblogging with @syrupmap 's tags because holy shit --

i think of Fraser saying this all the time#also that one day he will show himself#being angry#frightened#brave#petty#he will let himself be known

I’m in love with her. I know who she is.

Dief is v much the elder sibling and the only person who gets to bully Fraser and judge him

I know I'm 25 years late to the party but I'm finally watching Due South and this is the hardest I've laughed in MONTHS

DUE SOUTH S03E02 - Eclipse

[liminalmemories21]

Apparently there's going to be a Law & Order: Toronto, and I really desperately need them to make the world's most niche joke and have a detective from Chicago who came to Toronto on the trail of the killers of his father, who stayed - for reasons that don't need exploring at this juncture - because In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the police, who investigate crime; and the district attorneys, who prosecute the offenders. These are their stories.

This is a post that will make sense to . . . I think actually literally nobody on my feed, but is nonetheless really entertaining. I promise.

4x06 Odds | Unhesitatingly

If a praise kink were a person,

"Shh. We'll surprise him."

I need to scream and cry about how happy and excited Fraser was when he came to the station expecting to see Ray Vecchio - only to discover he wasn't there.
