If Pat had glasses ... *shudder* ... he’d probably use them to perfect laser glares, displacing Anoreth as the family’s killer-stare champion.
DP and I have begun watching “NUMB3RS,” a series starring Rob Morrow (Joel Fleischman from “Northern Exposure”) as an FBI agent and some guy as his math-savant borderline autistic younger brother ... sort of a “Sheldon with curly hair” figure.
They both appear to live in the L.A. area with their father (Judd Hirsch, aged very attractively). It also includes Peter McNichol - teenaged “Dragonslayer,” for those of us who are getting pretty old ourselves, only *his* curly hair is all gone, as a physics professor - another Sheldon character.
Anyhow, there’s something wrong when every time there’s a tv character who is bizarrely, even dangerously, intelligent and disoriented, the whole family choruses, “PAT!”
I *love* NUMB3RS”!
“If Pat had glasses...” Is this one of those “finish this sentence” kind of queries?
I guess my “early to bed” routine has deprived me of many educational programs...
Judd Hirsch has always been on my “to do” *ahem* list, but CFIDS has attacked my ability to stay up and watch whatever is in PrimeTime or programs that will enhance my being. Somehow.
So if I ask “stupid questions,” bplease consider the source and give me not-so-stupid answers. (Please?)
(As an aside: I believe Pat would fit in very well with my extended family. There are a lot of us who seem to be “out in left field” as children, but as adults, WE RULE!)
(Perhaps I should send Pat my Greek mythology books...?)
