So, I'm watching "Leverage"...

S1E8, The Mile High Job. And there's this bit of dialogue:

Hardison: Which ID's do y'all got?

Nate: *goes through several* ...and a Tom Baker.

Sophie: And I have a Sarah Jane.

This is what Jane Espenson calls a "two-percent joke." Two percent of your audience will get it, and they will LOVE YOU FOR IT.

Oh, golly, yes.

leverage, television

That was something else I picked up on last night that I'd missed the first time around. Too funny!

LOL That's awesome!

Ha! OK, this makes me want to watch this show if they're telling jokes like that.

They go on further to use Sylvester McCoy and Peter Davidson.

And then in another episode Tom Baker is used again along with Rose!!

I love Hardison & Parker - my favorite characters, but the whole cast is pretty awesome.
