I may need to watch those episodes again! OH NO, WHAT A HARDSHIP. *g*
One of the things I was pondering last night, after posting this, is that all of the characters on the show are, in their own various ways, imperfect people, and it's one of the things I love most about them: they're damaged, they're flawed, they're broken, they're outsiders, they're really kind of a mess, but they love each other anyway. The "island of misfit toys" thing is one of my bulletproof fiction kinks and this show hits it hard. Methos's past is more checkered than most -- okay, yes, a thousand years of killing, that's kind of an understatement *g* -- but it's not like anyone in Duncan's group of weirdo, misfit friends has any sort of claim on normalcy.
