On-screen tea scenes: good/bad
Inviting: the Companion's welcoming ceremony in Firefly.
Comforting: Mrs. Bridges in Upstairs Downstairs. Definitive ordering: Picard and his Earl Grey in Star Trek: TNG. Ethnic caricatu Mickey Rooney in Breakfast at Tiffany's. Badly timed: Arthur Dent crashing the Heart of Gold's master computer by asking it to synthesize a cuppa in Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy. Ill-fated: Sen-no-Rikyu's tea-orgy with Hideyoshi in Rikyu. Your picks? -DM

On-screen tea scenes: good/bad

rolling tanks and tea service in A Bridge Too Far. Zatoichi either drank tea or sake before he sliced and diced the bad guys.

The gongfu oolong scene in _Eat Drink Man Woman_. /Lew --- Lew Perin / http://www.panix.com/~perin/babelcarp.html
