Very little, Mr. Chekov

We're so impressed with our jokes here in the Aelfgyfu household I thought I'd share a couple of recent multifandom short-takes.

We were discussing how useless Becker is on Primeval, and I said, "Well, he was funny in his first scene, but then Lester said, 'I tell the jokes around here,' and it was all over. I mean, can you imagine if, on Stargate Atlantis, the first thing Elizabeth Weir had said to John Sheppard was, 'I make the jokes around here?'"
Brilliant Husband dropped into his Sheppard voice: "Oh. S**t." Pause. "Well, that's all I got."

Then we were talking about Star Trek (TOS) and whether or not Small Child should see the Harry Mudd episodes at such a tender age. They didn't ruin me for life, apparently, but I have deep misgivings about iamges of women in those episodes.
Brilliant Husband said, "Mudd does get his comeuppance in the end."
I said, "But the writers get to have their cake and eat it too!"
BH: "That's what writers do."
I: "Except for Joss." Dramatic pause. "Cake, or death?" "Death!"

Okay. Well, that's all I got, at least right now.
