Dark Knight, Air Date: May. 1992
Someone is killing a number of homeless people and draining their blood. Then a museum guard is killed the same way and a special artifact is stolen, a Mayan cup that Nick believes can help him become mortal again. Nick suspects that his old mentor Lacroix is in town and behind the murders. Forced into a partnership with the unbearable Detective Schanke, Nick has to face both Lacroix and the Homeless Killer while trying to protect his friends.. ~ via tv.com

Date: 2006-05-24 04:41 pm (UTC)From:This is probably a good time to mention it, but there's quite a bit of (usually) good natured ribbing between character factions. LillieW, who you've seen commenting, for example, is a Nick and Natpacker, and I'm a Cousin and a Ravenette (LaCroix and Janette are my favourite characters). And we've spent about ten years picking on each other over that :) So no one take anything I say too seriously, k? I'll try and remember to use emoticons when I'm just kidding around.

I'm a Vaquera (Vachon fan) first and foremost (as if people couldn't tell by my nickname) with Natpacker (notice the lack of Nick), Cousin, and Ravenette tendencies.
So this should be fun.

They sorta dropped the whole theme of Nick helping the homeless out, however. Convenient plot device.

Date: 2006-05-24 07:05 pm (UTC)From:One of the things that will be interesting is my perspective of these first season eps from those of you who saw the series from the beginning. (something we've discussed during the Methos discussions) I didn't see FK till mid second season, so by the time I finally got to see first season, my POV had been coloured by what happened after. Probably my take on LaCroix is quite different due to that.

Date: 2006-05-24 08:45 pm (UTC)From:burninateddead. Natalie's at her most optimistic and adorable in first season. Janette never fails to both amuse me and delight me. And I really ought to go back and watch "For I Have Sinned" now that I have s2 on DVD.For those that don't know me, I'm a NatPacker. Which basically means that I adore Natalie, occasionally like Nick, and not so occasionally have seething issues with the emotional morass that those two get put in.
But! I do bounce. ;)
(Ith, will you be linking the FK discussions in a sidebar like you are with your Methos discussions? Which I haven't had time to participate in, sadly.)

Date: 2006-05-24 09:32 pm (UTC)From:Other fandoms that I enjoy are Dracula/vampires (fan way over 20 years, I'm 36), Phantom of the Opera (since '89) and the anime/manga Hellsing.
Feel free to read my LJ, my Phantom-Dracula stories (been writing on and off since '92 in print zines) and friend me. I enjoy making new LJ buddies who share my interests:)
Take care,

Date: 2006-05-24 10:09 pm (UTC)From: (Anonymous)Cousin really has me perplexed.
As an FYI my favorite character is LaCroix. Next to Methos of Highlander he is the most intriguing character ever on TV, and has all the best lines not to mention "attitude".

Date: 2006-05-24 10:16 pm (UTC)From: (Anonymous)I liked the Natalie character (loved her hair) but sometimes found the romance thing with Nick a little contrived. Always wanted Nick with Janette. They made a better couple.
I wished instead of Tracy they had introduced a young "mortal" male cop to be Nick's partner and he would fall for Nat to add some tension to the interplay between them.

Date: 2006-05-24 10:40 pm (UTC)From:Cousin: LaCroix
Natpacker: Nat
Ravenette: Janette
Knightie: Nick
FoD - Friends of Don: Schanke
Perks: Tracy
Ratpackers: Screed
Cohenheads: Cohen
Then there's all sorts of couples factions.
Cousins... we're called Cousins (and my memory on this is slightly hazy) because a Knightie on FORKNI who hated frogs, got sent toy frogs by two different LaCroix fans, and she made the comment that they must be cousins. It became the faction name.
