'Heart Of Gold'
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.
It wasn't very many -- just what could have fit in that one ship that crashed into the Galactica.
Did the fighter pilot played by EJO's son die? (Hotdog, I think.)
And I must admit, that everytime one of the little groups of people came across a lone survivor in a room with a bunch of bodies -- I wondered if that person was really a cylon. I guess we will know eventually.
tiggy - make sure you see the Miniseries first. I foolishly (!) bought a box set in the airport on the basis that it was Season 1, and thus should be BSG from the beginning, right? Wrong. Picture the baffled expression on my face, and that of my flatmate, as Episode 1, Season 1 starts with a superfast 'previously on BSG'.
Hmph.
Re: SG1 - I'm gathering, from reading PegB, that Daniel canonically grew up in Egypt. Is this so?

thanks, Fay. i was just about to ask if i have to see the mini to understand what's going on in the first season.
people on my flist are trying to reassure me that spoilery for Dr Who the new doctor, david tennant, is also an amazing actor. i also realize that CE was the ninth incarnation of this particular role and this is par for the course, but having never seen any of the others i just don't know if anyone will live up to CE. he was the show for me.
i'll wait to reserve judgement until i've seen DT in action, but i don't see me loving him as much as i love CE.
as for BSG, are there any zombie episodes i should know about?
Re: SG1 - I'm gathering, from reading PegB, that Daniel canonically grew up in Egypt. Is this so?
No, that's just extremely popular fanon as far as I know. His parents were both Egyptologists, before the unfortunate squishing incident.
...the unfortunate squishing incident?
::mind boggles::
Damn. I'm sorry it's not canon. Still...
(tiggy, I've not seen any of the new Who, but I grew up in the whole hiding-behind-the-sofa-from-the-daleks generation. I watched from Tom Baker onwards, and I think Tom Baker is probably my default Who. Hmm. Is the new Who available on DVD yet? 'Cause that would be fun...)
Fay, i'm not sure. we USians don't even get it on tv here. i had to be naughty to see it. sci-fi stupidly passed on the rights to air it. i'd love to see it in better quality. so i'm hoping one of these days someone here will wise up.
...just checked out Amazon, and I guess that's a no. Hmm.
...somebody tell me it's a bad idea to buy complete seasons of SG1, Buffy, X Files, Babylon 5 etc etc from China off ebay...
...the unfortunate squishing incident?
It really is tragically funny.
!!!
A particularly fat camel sat on them?
A pyramid fell on them?
His parents when they were setting up a museum display with big stone ... columns I think....when something happened and the columns fell squishing his parents.
Daniel witnessed the whole thing.
