Ya, Sentinel was so slashy, that even my NON-slashy, non-fanish friends got it! I watched Sentinel sporatically (as when it was on, but didn't search for it). We happened to be doing the TV watching thing, actually quietly, not making any comments one night when my friends husband walked into the room, stood behind the couch for a few moments (neither of them is slashy, and he's not very fanish). It was the episode where Blair was stuck in the elevator and late for metting Ellison for lunch.
Out of the blue, he comments 'Yea, they're sleeping together' and WALKS AWAY. To say our jaws dropped and the three of us watching turned to him and went "WHAT?!" as he left was an understatement. We weren't even being 'catty' to the TV with commentary! (so it wasn't like he was repeating anything we were talking about) He was like, no man would be THAT worried that a friend was a few minutes late for lunch meeting.
Oh show, so slashy, and to this day, we get giggles at the out of the blue comment by my friends husband. Because he's the most oblivious person on the planet.
