What about I Spy?
Gavin, ask yourself this question. What are you more afraid of, a giant murderous demon or me?

Natter 37: Oddly Enough, We've Had This Conversation Before.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

It makes watching reruns of the original Dragnet lots of fun. "Come on, Sgt. Friday, just hug him already!"
"Just the facts, ma'am."

If, however, I had a student that tried to use the text to prove that Shakespeare was a Scientologist, I would try to talk them out of interpreting the text that way. Because it may be supportable, but given the arrow of time, it's not a valid interpretation.
But didn't Xenu blow up the volcanoes 70 million years ago! Shakespeare so could have been a scientologist! now I'm pulling your leg.
I'm kinda now intrigued about the Radar piece, "The Passion of Tom Cruise."

What about I Spy?
Oooh, good one to pull out. I don't think U.N.C.L.E. counts as I never got the feeling that Illya and Napoleon were pals. That may just be my unfamiliarity with the show, though.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Ha! I just went to IMDB to find out dates of the movies/TV shows just mentioned, and for reasons that are no doubt very specialcoincidental, a search for "Starsky & Hutch" also brings up "The Real Story of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1993) (V)".
I never felt the slash in I Spy, and I don't remember enough about Butch and Sundance to have an opinion.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
