Yay, new fandom!

Holy Christmas, how much do I love The Riches?

First off, I love the characters and the whole set-up and everything, but my God, Eddie Izzard has me at his beck and call right now. I mean, I love the guy to pieces and when I say that I want a guy who's smart and funny that's the kind of smart and funny I mean. But I've never really found him hot until tonight. Not that I thought he was ugly or anything but I've never looked at him all scruffy and sneaky and thought, "Waaaaaaant." *grabbyhands*

Also, I have great spastic love for that sex scene. It was all fast and silly and awkward and yet still romantic.

And Minnie Driver! Who didn't annoy me in the least, which is unusual.

I love the kids, too, but especially Sam. Oh, Sam, you adorable trannie in training. I kind of adore the fact that not only are they doing the storyline, but with Eddie Izzard involved there's a better chance that it won't turn into some stupid flailing cliche.

The good news is that this is the absolutely perfect character for him. Any accent sliding is just the scam slipping a little bit.

Good point. We don't know a lot about the character yet, obviously he's not from Louisiana like Minnie's character, so it makes sense. Plus it tends to slip only around his family or fellow Travellers, so far.
