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.
meep!
...don't die, wee Rodney!
t /fretful
Yes, I still like Peter. And I like cheerfully grisly doctor lady.
....aw, Rodney's Last Words!
Go away, nasty ghosty vision things! Don't kill Rodney!
....okay, good, not killing Rodney. Aw, bless, everyone else is asking why. WE know it's 'cause he's one of the main characters, and thus unlikely to die of scary alien infection thingy.
....
generate a NUCLEAR EXPLOSION OVERHEAD????
And this
isn't
a bad thing?
I bet Holling and co are going to LOVE this. If anyone ever bothers to tell them.
Duh, wrong thread
Ah, you were looking for the LOGICAL thread, yes?
...the more I see of SGA, the more I feel that the deLouise boys are the heirs of Gene Roddenberry. This is
so
Galaxy Quest.
But charming. Yes. And with the snark and piss-taking, which is nice.
I am enjoying Fay watching SG:A more than the show itself.
Fay is making me consider watching SGA from the beginning again. I just haven't felt the love. I just doze a bit between SG1 and BSG. Perhaps if I watch through
Galaxy Quest
tinted glasses it would help, a lot.
And with the snark and piss-taking, which is nice.
Plus bonus points for gratuitous use of a Scottish accent.
Yes, yes! I'm loving the whole Scottish and Czech flavoured accentage. 'Specially from Canadians!
I have to say, my increased enjoyment is due to having changed my expectations as much as anything. If I compare it to
Firefly
or
Battlestar Galactica,
the sillyness is jarring. But if I think about
Smallville,
and just sit back and enjoy the silly, and the slash, and don't worry about handwaving or, you know, narrative integrity etc...it's a lot of fun. I mean, yes, I looked at the wee village of people who should all be the same racial type, and yet who look like a random handful of racially diverse North Americans.
But I don't mind any more.
Because that's the kind of show it is. And that's okay.
And, wow, Rodney is
so
pissy about John having pulled a High Priestess. Bless him.
These guys really don't give any kind of flying fornication about any kind of Prime Directive deal, do they?
(...also, my Atlantis patch arrived in the post the other day. Now I need to find a canvas bag or a jacket or something it can live on.)
eta
Oh my GOD, McKay is SO totally jealous about this chick! It's like Clexian levels of slashiness, almost. Bless!
I still think they should have tricked the Wraith into thinking they'd moved the Earth-accessible stargate to that planet from "Sanctuary." Let Chaya deal with a dozen hive ships strafing her little Garden of Eden.
