Same as pic 1, only now the bald man is holding a big laser gun and pointing it at the Tom Baker head projection, who is freaking out. From DOCTOR WHO THE FACE OF EVIL.

"Hey, Neeva, is that a gun in your pocket or are you just pleased to see - OH FUUUUUUUUU..."

JL2 The Imposters. Like the brilliant Kaleidoscope, this has a fun, bold, comic-book feel to it, that both captures S11 & brings its own wildly imaginative, witty, & eccentric style to it. Too many highlights to list in full; plot, ideas, twists, performances, production, all outstanding. Loved it.

Yeah, but how well did the last epic Fury operation go?

Yay! Now it’s a new month.

I’ll miss the way he’d waggle his glasses every time a pretty woman walked by. What a character.

The Supremes leader's dead? They killed Diana Ross?!

Why can’t it ever be one of the nice little bits of history repeating?

Dunno why this popped into my head while watching the news.
