One thing that never fails to make me giggle, no matter how many hundreds of times I've seen "Comes a Horseman," is Kronos' odd taste in aliases. Melvin? That's our boy, the End of Time and the President of the Chess Club.
Methos was smart, yeah. He went for subtly symbolic yet tasteful names, like Adam and Benjamin. But Kronos, well, um. Dork. Or maybe he picked a name like Melvin (or Eugene or Dexter, according to the semi-canonical Watcher Chronicle CD-ROMs that I don't own because that would be geeky) as an excuse to get into more fights. Sort of a proactive, evil, "Boy Named Sue" kind of deal. Maybe?
Yeah, he was Dr. Ben Adams when he was running around with Byron (yay!) and then later when he had his affair with Morgan Walker's slave, Charlotte (meh). So 1808-1816, at least. Not that I still have great gobs of this stuff cluttering my brain or anything. *g* And the Watcher Chronicles are so fun, in a super-mega-geeky way. They aren't exactly canonical and they expand on some on-screen stuff, but I like to count them anyway, since they were done by the show's PTB and have official approval and all. The fact that they're slashy doesn't hurt either- I mean, Methos/Byron is blatantly obvious in the show, but textual support is always nice.
