Speaking about Julie Benz , she's been on a  tv show called Defiance for the last 2 years or so....decent sci-fi set on earth in a future time.

I actually think part of the fault does lie with Moore - he was not a natural comedic actor. All the quips, ad-libs and other comic touches that Connery added to the character (such as the off-the-cuff puns and fiddling with Qs toys) were often unscripted, so now had to be written into the script for him. I think the slap-stick elements were a direct result of the script-writers having to add comedy into the script to make up for Moore's lack of natural comedy.

The Tarzan yell in "Ocotpussy" is what made me finally understand, even at my young age, that that was not the James Bond my dad wanted to share with me, even though he made sure to take me to every Bond release. Guess he knew that someday I'd pick up on what was missing with Moore. Dad was so excited to take me to see "Never Say Never Again" later that year with his original favorite in the lead again. Boy, he sure didn't expect to be bitten twice by the same crappy character twice in one year.

But, it all worked out in the end.

Best thing to come out of Roger Moore's tenure as 007 was his role in The Cannonball Run. I watched that one and Smokey and the Bandit over and over on VHS as a kid. It probably says a lot about me that I like Burt Reynolds car chase movies more than James Bond...
