30 days of Blake, day 10

[elviaprose]

Today's topic (actually yesterday's, but I forgot) is something that made you laugh.



I don't often find B7 laugh out loud, and honestly I'm not sure if these were laugh out loud, but here we go

With:

Tarrant's dazed cruise passenger routine in Gold.



Another Tarrant Acting that amuses me is this one:

TARRANT Good man. Take his other arm -- "Section Leader."
AVON Yes "sir."

Really, meta-acting in B7 is one of my favorite things. Luckily for me, mithen wrote an amazing fic about it for me for Blakefest :D

At:

Avon kicking that chair away/tripping over it in Animals.

There are many other unintentionally amusing things, but that's my favorite, and I try to treat the show with respect (or do I?), so I'll leave it there.

Inarguable! :D

Oh, that moment when Avon slips after kicking that chair. I died, I had to rewind and we watched it again and I laughed and laughed. Simply amazing, I'm so glad they left it in, even if I know that was just because it was cheap. :)

I also rewound a few times, I must confess :D

Best thing about Animals!

Oh yes, that Avon unplanned moment... :)

Avon's chair-kick was such a thing of beauty. There isn't much to guffaw about in the show, is there, though? Lots of wry smiles...but frankly, the times when the characters are laughing is exactly when things are least funny.

I do like when Avon pulls the gun on Blake and Blake ignores him in S1, and then Avon shrugs and tosses it down--but that's a lot sadder with hindsight. And Tarrant's cute fancy bow in "Rumours of Death" is quite nice too.

Well said!

Those are some good moments, for sure. Both very endearing, as well as funny.
