1x03 Manhunt | Family
Just one of the most iconic monologues in the whole series.
Oh, Bob. You were a terrible father, but a pretty good partner.
Fraser’s collection of family photos and letters here is also lovely. Bob gives Benny a framed photo in Good for the Soul, but I hope these were preserved with Bob’s journals in Ben’s footlocker.

9. What historical era or fictional culture is your favorite for men's costumes?
I have a few answers to that question!
I really like the men's costumes from the Lord of the Rings movies, which is why I included fictional cultures in that question. Everything from the hobbits' jackets to the elves' robes, but especially the shirts (or mail shirts) with the long front-closing surcoats worn over trousers by the human men.
I also feel the appeal of the classic menswear of the first half of the 20th century, which kind of reached its climax in the 1930s. I actually catch myself drooling sometimes at the cut, the heft, the drape of some of those suits. It's hard to find anyone who doesn't look good in them.
Then, for a more obscure choice, I just kinda like this look, from the fifteenth century. The LOTR costumes are not a million miles off from this silhouette, actually, although without the double sleeves.
And finally, who doesn't love a well-turned-out Regency gentleman?

It's funny how big of an impact things we watch as we grow up leave.
Like I just read an article interviewing Alyson (last name not remembered) who played Lunnette the clown on The Big Comfy Couch.
My parents and I still quote things from the show. One line in particular.
"Who made this big mess!?"
Then we give blame to who did. Messy hair day, still referred to the person as Major Bedhead. We'll still even reference Molly the dolly.
The Big Comfy Couch is hardly the only thing that gets referenced.
There are still times when (though my brothers don't really know the show) that we reference Skinnamarink TV with Sharon Lois and Bram. Especially some of their songs. (Skinnamarink-y dinky do- I love you. I love you in the morning and in the afternoon. I love you in the evening and underneath the moon...)
Ants in the Pants is another one that still gets a reference at times and that show had some fun music on it. Songs that I still think about to this day.
I still think about Babar a lot, but we don't necessarily reference it, though I do like to pull out (moonmen never kid) at times. I also still think about Theodore the Tugboat and will go and listen to the theme song at times.
And of course there are the classics like Little Bear, Franklin, Arthur and others, but they're not ones that necessarily actually get directly referenced. Though I'm sure that there are many shows that I'm missing.
Anyways that's just my little musing on kid shows.
#there's just something so comforting about certain kid shows#not all of them are rewatchable as an adult but quite a few actually are#like I still love Babar and will go and watch it again the sound track for the show is delightful and leans classical making it timeless#and Gordon Pinsent as older Babar's voice is so soothing#my tastes in kid's shows do tend to lean very Canadian but considering that I am Canadian I think that makes sense#like Babar. Theodore. Big Comfy Couch. Skinnamarink TV. Ants in the Pants are all Canadian and have stuck a deep cord within me#let alone Mr. Dressup who I didn't touch on and he's a Canadian icon to people over a certain age#people around my age are kind of the last ones to really know Mr.Dressup and I was already on reruns#my parents and I still reference the tickle trunk or the owl and his twit ta wo twit ta we#anyways I just love old kid shows and while I don't have any kids currently I have previously thought that I would#want to show them the shows that I grew up on moreso than anything modern at least to some degree

Huzza, Zack Pinsent has posted a new video!
youtube
Interesting point about Mr. Hallett's suit maybe being a navy blue instead of black.
#(not to be That Guy again but harpsichord music like that is a few decades off for 1785... just saying... love you anyway Zack)#(we're in the piano era by that point: listen to Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 21 in C major which was written in 1785)#(I know that harpsichord piece is like the only old-timey stock music that the one website has... I'm just a stickler about this... sorry)#Zack Pinsent#18th century fashion#Youtube
