Separated at birth?

March 9, 2006 By David

I couldn’t help noticing a certain similarity between our newest entrant into the Lieutenant Governor’s race and a character in one of my favorite TV shows, Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

One of the Gentlemen Reed Hillman

The figure on the left is one of “The Gentlemen,” from an Emmy-nominated episode called “Hush.”  The figure on the right is Reed Hillman, in a photo taken at today’s press conference announcing that he’s Kerry Healey’s running mate.

    … other than I love Buffy! đŸ™‚  Wonder Woman is just not going to fill up my Wheedon quota, but it will be a start.

    Dear Joss, Hillman does look like one of The Gentlemen. Weird.

    I love me some Buffy!  It’s a kick-ass show and it kept my brother (sound editor) employed for seven years.

    I’m looking forward to Wonder Woman, but I just can’t picture diminutive SMG (who was rumored to be lobbying for the part) as an amazon super heroine. I personally think Salma Hayek would be a better choice, but hey Joss didn’t ask me. đŸ™‚

    WHEDONesque is a daily haunt of mine.

    I love me some BtVS. Nice catch there, David.

    Joss Whedon is on record as saying he thinks Morena Baccarin (Inara from Firefly and Serenity) would make an outstanding Wonder Woman. I don’t know if the studio would buy it, though.

    I’d say he looks more like Judge Doom from “Who Framed Roger Rabbit?”
