timepiececlockStayed up to watch JM on Kilborn tonight.
He's such a dork.
It's so adorable.
Also, I think I've finally gotten used to his natural American accent---actually it totally differentiates him from Spike in my mind now. Anyway, it wasn't a surprise to hear him speak like that this time, like it has been in the past when I watched clips or the last time he was on Politically Incorrect.
Weirdly, I might like it more than the English accent, at least on JM-- not Spike. The accent is sexier, but his regular voice makes him sound like the people I talk to everyday, like the boys I went & currently go to school with, like everyone I've ever met with a western-U.S.-born accent. And that's sexy too, cause it makes him sound more accessible. I've always liked dorky-cute guys, whihc James Marsters definitely is. Well, I like sexy/cool guys too, but I've got a soft spot in my heart for the geeky yet sweet ones.
Also, his facial expressions are quite different from Spike's. His entire body language, in fact. It's like he couldn't sit still. Spike's character has always seemed very energized, but there were times when he would be very still. Especially in scenes wiht Drusilla or Bufffy. And Spike was never as wriggly and bouncy as JM always seems to be in interviews and stuff. Did anyone notice his propensity for hand gestures? So adorable. I feel like I want to kiss the man, and then sell him Ritalin (or whatever that drug is called.)
How embarrassing about the landromat anectdote. 30-40 something year old guy and these 13-year-olds think he's trying to pick them up. Yep, that's one to teach you humility, huh?
His excitement over meeting Liza Minelli was adorable too. I wondered while waiting for him to come on if they'd be meeting back stage or not. He seemed so jazzed to shake her hand and that she knew who he was.
Hmmm...
Overall Opinion-
James is charming. :drool:
Kilborn is too tall. :pout: He makes the average-sized JM look short. And his jokes aren't that funny. Conan O'Brian is better.
Liza is a hoot. She looks great and seems to be a fun guest, quite willing to answer questions in good humor. And her husband looks nice.

Except you know, that it wasn't. I didn't watch it in season 2 either, so I probably would have been squicked too.
