T.C.'s "look"

This is really random (urgh, I've come to hate that word, now that teenage kids use it all the time), but I wonder if anyone else has noticed this...
I've only noticed this subconsciously over the years, but watching 'Murder 101' to review last night, it suddenly struck me: T.C.'s sarcastic 'serious' look.
He will be straight faced, eyebrows raised, and his eyelids half down, as if he's really paying attention. But something about the way he does it looks so sarcastic and really makes me laugh.
The best example is the classic 'picked egg' scene in the fourth season's 'Limited Engagement', and is part of what makes the sequence so great.
Anyone else ever notice when he did this sometimes?
I'll have to try and get some screen grabs of it.

Yup, he definitely has a look. Limited Engagement and Murder 101 are good examples... and I believe that he also flashes it right before he tries to break open the desk drawer in Mad Dogs and Englishment.
He also flashes it sometimes when he's "acting", ala when he was trying to pass himself off as a PI in the Big Blow

You're definately right about the pickled egg scene. This is one of my all-time classic favorite scenes, and TC's expressions during the exchange do as much to make the scene as the dialogue. Mr. Mosley is truly a master of his craft.

by only looking
I love the look he gives in "squeez play" when they're taking off Killer and Buzz gives off some remak and T.C. does this look and head jesture..gets me everytime.

I love TC . . . but I thought this thread was going to ask about the rainbow suspenders and the earring that appeared in the "wrong" ear halfway through the series run.

Rainbow suspenders WITH a belt.
There was no way those pants were ever going to fall!

As my godfather says "Never trust a man who wears a belt with suspenders"

My 10 year old step daughter insists she needs a pair of suspenders like TC has to go along with her Island Hoppers T Shirt!

Anyone catch the episode where he is wearing an UGA Bulldog football cap? It only appeared once I believe, and I think that season was the same year UGA won the Sugar Bowl with Herschel.
