Seven Days/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • The Ace / Marty Stu: Despite his mental problems, or maybe because of them, Parker has exceptional reflexes, endurance and charm, and seems to be totally immune to physical pain. Arguably deconstructed - Left to his own devices, he'd gamble and adrenaline-rush himself into oblivion. The only reason he's functional at all is because Backstep keeps him not just on a tight leash, but a choke chain - he's sometimes threatened by Donovan with being sent back to Hansen Island if he doesn't stop making a spectacle of himself.
  • Crowning Music of Awesome. The main theme.
  • Harsher in Hindsight. The episode "Pinball Wizard" featured an aircraft being crashed into the The Pentagon during an attack, complete with faux footage of the building with one side blown in, and faux news coverage of the wreckage and mass casualties. It was filmed in 1999.
    • There was also an episode where a bunch of terrorists rammed a helicopter full of explosives into the Statue of Liberty.
  • Replacement Scrappy: the character they brought in to replace Ballard early in the third season.
