'Beneath You'
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
I actually didn't start watching until 9p-ish, so that was hour three. I saw the first two hours when it aired originally (and then again at some later date), and I saw most of the fourth hour way back when, too. It's the third hour that I either didn't see or just didn't remember very well. So, in a way I had good timing last night.
July seems like a long way off.
Strega's recap of the Farscape episode "Crackers Don't Matter" is now online.
Saw this over at Comics Continuum:
ABC Family will stage a Smallville marathon on Sunday, May 15, featuring Christopher Reeve's two episodes and culminating with Reeve in Superman: The Movie.
The schdule of episodes includes:
2 p.m.: "Rosetta." (2.17)
3 p.m.: "Calling." (2.21)
4 p.m.: "Exodus." (2.22)
5 p.m.: "Exile." (3.1)
6 p.m.: "Legacy."
Why is Strega recapping Farscape? I thought TWOP refused to do Farscape.
Why is Strega recapping Farscape? I thought TWOP refused to do Farscape.It's a charity fundraiser. They announced that people could bid for a recap of something not already done by TWOP. The Farscape fans were the high bidder in this round.
Wow, I happened to channel surf into Enterprise tonight, and my head damn near exploded. They really ought to warn folks when they're going to start mixing canons like a bad-ficcer.
Well, that's cool. the TWOP thing.
What happened on Enterprise, DX?
This is going to be sketchy because I jumped into the middle of the second episode of a multi-parter. When I turned it on, there was Captain Archer dressed up like James T. Kirk (in that green bowling shirt he used to wear), sitting on what looked like the bridge of the TOS Enterprise, blowing ships out of space with maniacal glee. Naturally, my interest was piqued. From what I could make out, the story was set in the mirrorverse, and the mirror!counterparts of Archer and the crew had somehow gotten their hands on USS Defiant. Not Ben Sisko's Defiant, but the Constitution class Defiant that Kirk and company tried to rescue when it was sucked into some kind of anomaly in The Tholian Web episode of TOS. It seems the anomaly not only pulled the ship into the mirrorverse, but back in time as well. Evil!Archer decided the Defiant would be just the thing he could use to conquer the empire and become emperor. The weirdest thing about it all was that the officers, and only the officers, apparently decided to play dress up using all these neat uniforms they found on board.
The "real" Enterprise crew didn't seem to be in the episode at all, so it was like a total AU fanfic. I now feel compelled to watch the first part, so I downloaded it last night.
Actually, the mirrorverse crew went into "our" universe to grab the Defiant and take it back home, because they needed the firepower to win a war. Archer was originally on the side of the Empire, but became disillusioned with them after saving their asses.

I thought the first part was a lot more watchable than the second part, but the second part had all kinds of nifty production design shoutouts to the original series.

Really? I didn't get that impression. I got the impression that the rip the Tholians had created had pulled the Defiant into the mirror universe and back in time.
