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 just finished watching ep3.
Unfortunatly Mom's vcr didn't tape so I had to download it and watch it, the quality wasn't that great, esp since a lot of it was at night.
Ronan seems cool. Sheppard was wonderful. Caldwell was an ass.
But what the fuck have they done to Rodney?? In The Defiant he leaves relative safety, goes out and empties 2 clips into a Wraith --- the Wraith turns and Rodney pretty much stands his ground. He didn't go running of screaming like a child.
The whole radiation freak out was enough. At least Rodney actually shot Ford, I really wasn't expecting that.
Ford was really good, poor kid. I hope we see more of him and his struggle.
All the greenery on Atlantis distracted me, I guess they replaced the 1000 yr old dead plants.
Watching
The Storm.
Am absolutely awash with Scientist love. Bless.
Yay, you made it to the good stuff!
Aw, now
that
was fun.
And I'm delighted to find that Zelenka is played by a real Czech. Cool.
askye, as Katie points out, the Stargate writers, when faced with the choice between "cheap laugh" and "honest characterization", will go for cheap laugh every. damned. time. Well, maybe nine times out of ten.
Ronon's pretty, though. I just hope they don't go the Teyla/Ronon route. I'd much rather see her with Bates, just for the entertainment value.
I was doing a good job of thinking of David Hewlett as Canadian until he said his favourite Sci Fi shows were Dr Who, The Tomorrow People. It's okay to feel a
little
like he's British, right? I mean, he was born in Surrey.
Ooh! Plus, he's got the Queen on his money! I think! So, yeah, Brit. Yay!
it's so fun watching Fay fall head and shoulders into a new fandom
Bow! Bow to the power of David Hewlett!
Dude,
nobody
remembers
The Tomorrow People.
Hell,
I
scarcely remember it. But I grew up on
Doctor Who, The Tomorrow People
and
Blakes 7.
(And can I say, excluding the apostrophe is almost physically painful?)
...I was always going to be a geek.
Anyway, by namechecking said shows, rather than the Trek, he has won my girlish heart.
Well, that and the fact that he's snarky, and cute, and would look good naked with other boys. And is going to
snog Carson.
It's all good.
(...actually, I've sort of named a character after him in the original novel I'm trying to write. Um.)
Bwah, Fay!
Veronica Mars fans: Anjou has started writing a Logan-centric story. You can find it here. If you're worried about WIPs, Anjou is very good about finishing things. She tends to write long, as well.
