Are there people out there that actually don't like Roger? There must be, but I imagine they are in a very small minority.
as much as the 'leviathan' storyline is criticised i was pleased that liz got some great material to work with.
For me, one of Roger's top two lines is when everyone is evacuating Collinwood because of Quentin's ghost and he, the last one out, declares WE WILL BE BACK, THIS IS OUR HOME!!
Mr. Balderdash, suddenly face to face with a spook he can't rationalize away. (Though it's interesting that in the very beginning, he was the one all gung ho to do seances.)-
1897: [spoiler]I'm thinking of 1897, Barnabas is found out, kills Carl, we either are or aren't supposed to mind (one of the most confusing moments of television ever made), Edward takes charge and defends his family. I think one has to admire how he deals with all this, especially considering he is, as always, one in a continuing series of Mr. Balderdashes. He shifts gears in his perspective pretty damn fast and efficiently. And was he wrong?[/spoiler]
Jeannie-- I LOLed at this line of yours. As for early Roger vis a vis seances, I think if he'd really believed in it, he wouldn't have wanted to do it. Just some spoiled rich boy lark maybe....Glad you liked "Mr.Balderdash". Quentin has a nickname too: "Mr. Plays with the Dark Arts for Fun and Profit". [91a2]
