For those Anglophiles out there..

I found this amusing.. but not a funny threads amusing.

Also a point to remember: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRICbIZBlC4&feature=youtu.be

Stan Lee's Lucky Man. Sky got Stan to develop a show for the British side of things. Set in London, James Nesbitt as one of those sparkling, but slightly dodgy cops (with a bad gambling habit) and a flair for solving crimes. Somehow ends up with a mysterious bracelet on his wrist he can't get off, but apparently it has a wonderful yin/yang approach to bringing its wearer luck. Add in that slightly more British grittiness and lack of outright optimism that most superheroes have in some way, senior police offices considering he might be corrupt, and some form of potential conspiracy trying to recover the bracelet. Oh yes, and of course, the obligatory "mysterious woman" who knows more than she's told the hero. Four episodes into the series and it's having it's interesting moments. Some rough ups and downs, and occasional flashes of mass stupidity as the plot requires, but it's still managing to be somewhat compelling. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVLxIm8oMl8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPa5TRsTIoE

My bad, sorry. Added tags. To be fair, the only time you could honestly say you'd be surprised at a Stan Lee cameo in a film/tv show with Marvel characters is if he turned up in Fantastic Four. Hell, he even managed an appearance for Lucky Man when it started on the UK tv. Of course, to be fair that's technically "Stan Lee's Lucky Man".

Heh. And of course, some Browncoats made some Firefly Valentine thoughts...

But it's always important to remember :

Maybe not strictly funny... but I'm not sure where else to throw this.

Also, best wingman ever?

The significant other person. Aka, the serious boyfriend / girlfriend / husband / wife / insert choice of romantic relationship partner. (S)He who makes makes your heart beat faster, the light shine brighter, adds the spark to your life, and is in some form of committed relationship with you (or whoever the Significant Other question is asked about).
