Im datting a new man and Tommeh is nun two happy about it. jacksen is a reel stand up gi. he carres about the envirunmint and he plays drums in a band. I think Tommeh hates him becuze he is nothing like Theodoor. Theodoor did bad things down in his basement and had to go soumwhere else to live. Theodoor brought home lots of bees and honey and taht is why tommeh was so fond of him.
Theodoor looks a better role model for Tommy, to be honest. He'd be the guy who, for example, strips off - and commanding Tommy to do likewise - covers himself in motor oil and grapples with his young stepson, rolling around on the filthy floor, growling primordially, and thus better preparing him for the many trials of adulthood. Jacksen just looks like he'd give him neckrubs and spoon up to him in bed for non-gay new age bonding.
I agree. Theodoor looks like he might be working on some great cure down there in the basement. I like the unkept geeky mad scientist look mixed with the almost priest-like attire. I bet his teeth look like little baked beans from years of neglecting things like hygiene working for the greater good. He seems like a real humanitarian. Jacksen, on the other hand, looks a little self-aborbed with that girly hair. I think he definitely listens to Enya while in spoon-mode and then steps it up to Tom Petty during the hustle and bustle of everyday life. I do appreciate the fact that he hangs out with a guy with no arms. But I think that makes him a little too 'soft'. What's he gonna do when two guys jump him for his flannel shirt? Bust out a verse of "Don't Do Me Like That"?
I just had a frightful, quite horrifying vision of Jacksen smiling and singing 'saila way saila way saila wayyy' gently into Tommy's ear every time the chorus comes. Don't be too surprised if the poor lad grows up to be an aromatherapist at this rate, Sassy!
"Now here we have a barometer, which is of course similar to the barometer we constructed in episode twelve with the help of Dave the technician, and in a minute we're going to test it out by attaching it to our weather balloon.. ..isnt science just fab?"
I didnt really notice that actually! At a quick glance it looked like one of those old 70's science programs or the guy that does painting with numbered colours.. "now, I'm going to use some hundred green.. " or this guy..
