Couldn't help noticing that Mile High always gets credited as Sky Pilot. Shouldn't he have reverted to his original codename just as Shore Leave has?

Glad I'm not the only one who noticed that! That was probably just a typo, since I think they made a credit mistake like that before.

Yeah, I noticed that too. He's referred to as Mile High in the show though, I think. They also changed Shore Leave to Shoreleave for this half of the season.

I'm not sure he's ever been referred to by name since TFTSTST part one...I noticed it in P&P and this is the first time he's had a speaking role since.

Anyone else feel he's a bit underused? Presumably he's capable of kicking about as much ass as Shore Leave.

I was just thinking about how little he's actually done. He helped put on the Armor of Holiness but that's about it.

I think he's underused only because he's ultimately a less entertaining version of Shoreleave. Why force the ground chuck when you can just serve the sirloin, so to speak.

They should battle team up again though. That'd be like surf and turf.

Ha, true. You gotta wonder if Mile High's jealous at all that Shoreleave dumped him (professionally) for Brock.

Speaking of being dumped, people tend to assume that Shore Leave and Mile High were only pretending to be in a relationship ('I pretended to be in love with Shore Leave!' as MH says). To me it seemed more like they were in a genuine relationship that has since broken down, and Mile High's comment in Pinstripes (and Shore Leave's reply) was actually a put-down. Any thoughts?

I interpreted the relationship as co-workers-with-benefits. I wouldn't doubt that they were having sex and I wouldn't doubt that they enjoyed it. I thought of it more as Shoreleave (who's totally into himself and we love that about him) being insulted that Mile High didn't worship the ground he walked on (because how could you NOT love Shoreleave) and so he bawked his retort.
