I was watching the repeat of the James Bond episode tonight. And the show clearly made a huge mistake.

No, I’m not talking about any of the experiments. I’m talking about when Kari said she was going to change out of her evening gown to something more appropriate for working around fire. And then she reached down and started to pull her dress off.

And the show cut to the next scene.

Huge huge mistake. Ruined what could have been the best episode ever.

If we’d seen about a second more, I might not have had enough blood flow to my brain to appreciate the science.

What about the scene where she and the guys are trying to induce narcolepsy in goats? In an attempt to shock a goat, she flashes a goat (and Tory). Out here in televisionland we only saw her from behind opening up her flasher coat.

Bastids!

Did you see the new duct tape special last week? Kari got seriously EVIL! Great fun.

Also, she’s looking very nice since she returned from maternity leave. Like her longer hairstyle, among other things.

I watched a ep recently where the team did a slow-mo run towards the camera.

Best clip ever?
