Nathan Forbes "distracting" pants
« on: February 23, 2007, 04:49:06 AM »
I finally got to watch 1795 for the first time.  I completed it in two weeks and it was very good.  Me and my grandmother watched together.  She had watched the show in the sixties and remembered little.  However, she said what I was thinking.  She was like, "that mans pants are very vulgar" and I was setting there thinking the same thing.  LOL  This isn't to bash the actor or anything...but I don't know what the wardrobe department was thinking.  They were not flattering at all. I was distracted for the duration of the flashback anytime  he would come on the scene.  Did anyone find this anoying or werid?  It seems like in such conservative times this wouldn't have been allowed.  I hope this was okay to post about.

If you check through past posts, you'll notice that Nathan's pants has generated quite a few topics, including this one:

Hmmm...

Also, the good Lieutenant's pants have even been featured as one of the forum's floaties:

However, if your grandmother thinks Nathan's pants "are very vulgar," just wait until she gets to the 1841PT storyline! The men's costumes in that storyline make Nathan's uniform look like he was wearing a loose sack.  [lghy]

I am sure that Mrs. Johnson and ole Willie and perhaps Peter Bradford, along with Gomers cousin Goober and Richard Long from that 60s Western would all have something to say about them pants.

I, personally, thought that the original "Bad Lieutenant's" trousers were a most refined showcase for his glorious body, including his truly luscious Manhood.  *sigh*

I have to admit I am tee-heeing over the thought of the nice old lady scowling and muttering "That man's pants are VULGAR."

And the 1840 storyline in which John Karlen as Desmond is wearing similar tight pants, sighhhhhhhh......

You know, when I wrote that I just knew that someone was going to go there - particularly in this crowd.  ;)  But I left it anyway.

However, "loose sacks" are the things least on view in 1841PT.  :D
