] So that's my diatribe on Horatio. :-) I really like the guy. I don't think he is two dimensional at all.

I'm sorry, Jezkalyn, but I have to fall on the "minimal personality" side in this argument. When I watched the Kenneth Branagh video, Horatio made so little impression on me that I had to rewind to "place" him. (Of course, that might be partly due to the actor who played him - sorry I can't remember *his* name!).
