You're more than welcome, hon! Thank you.

I just adore Archie, and I love his relationship with Parker. And I may still have a thing for Richard Chamberlain. ;)

Lovely! And Richard Chamberlain should be known by all! The man's done some amazing work during his years in the business. Seeing him on Leverage is that extra zing.

[scout_lover]

Thank you!

I have loved Richard Chamberlain forever. (Thornbirds, anyone?) And when he guested on Leverage, I realized he still had it. He was perfect as Archie.

I'm so glad you liked this!

Beautifully done!

[scout_lover]

Thank you! I adore the character of Archie, and Richard Chamberlain is, in the words of Chaos, "still yummy." *g*

Day-um, that was good. I love your portrayal of Archie, and how he doesn't quite approve of what she does, but is happy for her all the same. I really liked your insight into him.

Good job!

[scout_lover]

Thanks, hon! I'm delighted you liked it.

I think of Archie as something of a "crime snob" - thieves are the elite, the true artists, and Parker is sort of "wasting" herself with Nate and the others. But she's happy, so he's willing to go along with her.

I adore Archie (and Richard Chamberlain). It wouldn't break my heart if they brought him back. ;)

Very nice.

And that young man Hardison loved her.

I particularly like this line. "That young man Hardison" sounds exactly like Archie.

Thank you! I watched "Inside Job" and "Last Dam" again to get his cadence and phrasing. I'm delighted I got him right. ;)
