Joe Flanigan/John Sheppard Thunk Thread

[darkwarden]

The PDAs are HP.

Computer dealer here, so I notice all this stuff.

Okay my bad!

Clearly the site I checked for Sean Maher's had got his D.O.B very wrong. Nearly 30 does sound far more reasonable. In fact 1975 is my birth year too, so that's perfect. Thank U Melyanna for the pic of bare chested Sean you posted to emphasise your astonishment at the idea of him being late 30's. Kind of makes the mistake I made seem fortunate.

Now to get back to the the real topic of conversation. I hadn't really noticed the wrist band business but what I did notice after watching 'The Defiant One' for about the fifth time, was that Sheppard didn't appear to be wearing any socks. At one point in the ep he is lying face down in the dirt and you can see his legs behind him and the ankle going into his shoe is bare. It's quite sad what tiny little details jump out of the screen when you watch an ep a lot of times. Don't know if there's any hidden meaning behind non sock wearing behaviour, personally with all the sand and dirt around on that planet I would have thought it would have made his feet uncomfortable to have no socks on.

i noticted that too! but i wasn't sure if he was just not wearing any socks or if he was wearing ankle socks, which sometimes looks likes he's not wearing socks...will we ever know?

[Athenaktt]

as for his blue and white pin striped boxers...i was making caps for "Home" the other day...and I think I noticed those same boxers making a tiny appearance under his jacket...you guys be the judge.

And I have no comment or excuse to why I was looking down there...

[Salty]

Oh, really? Maybe that's some stealth promo work going on there. Like the Dell laptops and whatever brand PDAs they use. He's wearing the Puma wristbands inside out.

You don't happen to have that pic anywhere, do you?

edit-> Oh wait, I found a photo here with the Puma wristband. Maybe that IS a Joe thing. That's actually cool if it is.

I just found that pic too but I can't figure out how to copy a pic here!

[darkwarden]

It looks like they are there, but the pattern looks different, it looks like blue/black diamonds on white base. Now we just need a better pic, boxers ONLY.

[darkwarden]

The jeans are a nice touch though.

Looks like them peeking out to me. And I know EXACTLY why I was looking down there. Nice package!

[Athenaktt]

Nice package!

ROTFLMAO!! yes i agree!

[Melyanna]

Now, the question is, did anyone on set notice, or did the girls notice and just decide to let that one slide?

Well after I saw that little Peek-a-boo boxer, I kept watching to see how long they were sticking out, and noticed in the next shot he pulled his shirt down...so someone noticed, but i wonder who...

[watcher652]

Actually, that pic from Home reminded me about something I thought about the first time I saw the episode. I was surprised at the outfit he was wearing. He had on that jacket zipped up all the way and his shirt was sticking out the bottom of his jacket. He looked kind of geeky, actually. Now, since everyone was imagining themselves in their heads, I would assume everyone would imagine the clothes they were most comfortable in. I thought the clothes he was wearing gave us an insight into how "geeky" Sheppard may really be. We know he's a math whiz and I just read about something happening in an upcoming episode:

Spoiler:

Apparently, in Brotherhood, Sheppard tells McKay he took the Mensa test and passed. And Sheppard figures out a puzzle.

I was kinda thinking he would wear a leather or suede jacket, for some reason. But that's a jogging suit jacket, isn't it? Maybe they were going for the jock look?

[Athenaktt]

I think they were going for the geeky look...cuz i don't know how fashion coincides with geekiness, but to be honest I dont' know many leather or suede wearing guys who read "War and Peace" and are math geeks.

Then again its just the jacket that looks geeky...the rest of the outfit look just fine

[Kliggins]

The belt hanging down from under the shirt was a nice touch too.
