I believe that Gaius thinks she's sexy, which is really what's most important. Well, and that she herself is a happily sexual creature.
Mostly I just think the performance is creepy and charismatic.
Nandi: I ain't her. Mal: Only people in this room is you and me.

Boxed Set, Vol. II: "It's a Cookbook...A Cookbook!!"
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 was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Completely agree.
On the upside about Caprica, though, I suspect having Starbuck there now will liven things up. Heh. I still laugh every time I think of "Bitch took my ride." That was just such a great delivery.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Heh. I still laugh every time I think of "Bitch stole my ride." That was just such a great delivery.
Yeah. Although I laugh more when I think of her saying, "Let's do what Sharon the Cylon says. Because that would be a good idea," or WTTE.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Yeah, definitely.
On the upside about Caprica, though, I suspect having Starbuck there now will liven things up.
Yeah, I hope so, cause I never really cared much about Helo.

It's actually "Bitch took my ride." t /pedant

I fixed it before I even read your post, dude.
ETA: I never say babe. Where the hell did that come from? Weird.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I never say babe either.
It may come up when I'm talking about dionysian baseball players, righteous pigs or goofing on a hollywood agent.

Oh, yes. The pig. I forgot about the pig. But that'd be capitalized.
I must have been channeling someone or something. Maybe one of those hollywood agents.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
I say 'babe'. It is every bit as odd and risible as the word 'dude', coming from me, given that in my local argot the more appropriate terminology would be 'mate' or even, believe it or not, 'cock'.
I blame the cheap imported shiny US television shows.
nods
...or porn, possibly.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
or even, believe it or not, 'cock'.
I knew of this. Ray Davies of the Kinks mentions the usage in his book.
I totally should've had you say "Dude" on the F2F videotape.
