“trashier than Jane Austen” *raising eyebrows*

Thanks for erasing the spoilers, Mags, in Latin America the second season started just 2 weeks ago (and I have resisted temptation to watch the rest through the unofficial sources), but I understand Sir Guy is magnificent in episode 3 this coming Sunday.

Kathleen, I had to edit your comment slightly. We’re only four episodes into Season 2 here in the States (don’t worry, I’ve seen it all–the UK fangirls hooked a sister up) so let’s be careful out there. :-)

That video is a tad bit spoilerish, but it passes quickly enough, I guess…and I was sitting at work watching it on my Treo and somebody came by and commented on my “smile.” Oh yes.

And yeah, even after that very bad thing, I still gotta cheer for the bad guys. Keith Allen is an absolute riot (if bugeyed insane) as the Sheriff and yes, Alan is a cutie and does a good job embracing his black-leather side. The good guys are BORRRRRing. Cute but boring. I want to know what product Robin uses to keep his bangs so darned perfect while living in the forest. My bangs don’t last the walk to the train station in the morning.

Poor Jonas Armstong. It must be very depressing, when you are supposed to be the hero, to be continually denigrated in favour of a person whose character has in the past tried to kill his monarch and his own illegitimate child and has apparently done (something very bad) at the end of the last series just because that person looks wonderful in black leather.

Sir Guy of Google is hilarious. I just don’t get that Marian. Why would you go for Robin (who to me resembles more of a disenfranchised bass player in an emo band than a hardened war veteran), instead of the smoldering, black-leathered hotness that is Sir Guy. Does it really matter that he may have killed a few peasants–he’s hot!

This is my current favorite bit of Sir Guy YouTube silliness.

Really, with all the interest on this thread (and pretty much every time I ever mention or put his photo on a post here) you’d think someone would put 2 and 2 together and cast Mr. Armitage in a Jane Austen-related movie already.
