Face is my favorite. Not only do his overall good looks make me weak in the knees, but I like the way he can look like a suave sophisticated man one minute, then like a worried and vulnerable kid the next. I love that too. that's what makes him hot.

Although Hannibal is my favorite, Face is probably the character I enjoy analyzing the most. I think that the above is a good analysis of him, and I feel that by the final episode, he has come sort of full circle and is going to be okay even if the team stays on the run the rest of their lives. In fact, I feel like maybe he has even let go of his desire to live a "normal" life and maybe he has realized that the life he has is the one that is "normal" for him.

Face has a lot of angst to analyze...and a lot of layers to his personality. That always makes for a fun character.

Been watching more episodes on Hulu tonight. Another reason I love Hannibal: His crazy good martial arts skills. I've seen him execute some excellent sidekicks, as well as a nice crescent kick or two! I wonder if Peppard had formal martial arts training, and if so, what style? (I've been a martial artist for 22 years, having trained in four styles, so I find myself automatically looking for things like this.)

I don't think I ever even noticed Hannibal's martial arts. What's wrong with me??

When they're hand-to-hand fighting, watch closely - Hannibal will sometimes throw a kick in there. He did a couple of nicely-executed sidekicks in Mexican Slayride, and he knocked a goon out with a crescent kick in another episode whose name I can't remember right offhand (because I've been watching so many lately).
Editing to avoid a totem post: Another thing that gives me good chills is when Hannibal throws rank to be serious or to get a point across. It doesn't happen often, but the Team members really listen up when he does that. I don't like it when my COs throw rank at me, but I like it when Hannibal throws rank at the other guys. ;D

Hannibal is the best kind of leader...one who doesn't have to throw his weight or rank around to command respect. ;D
Kikinchick, I've also noticed his martial arts skill. Wonder if he did have any formal training? I know GP was a Marine, so he probably did.
Murdock can bust a Bruce Lee-style move from time to time, too. ;D

OMG! Speaking of Hannibal and fight scenes...we just watched..ahhh! I'm blanking on the episode...the one where they break into Rasham's headquarters and it turns out the be the kitchen? One More Time?
Anyway, there's a scene where they have the WORST stunt double ever for Hannibal throwing a punch. My husband was like "Wait, when did Hannibal turn into Leslie Nielson?" ROFL. I mean I look about as much like him as the double. It was really funny.

Face - I think he's the most loveable character the way he goes from being charming one second to being completely vulnerable the next is sweet to watch. And his loyalty to the team is genuine. Not to mention he is gorgeous too!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D
