Fortunately Stargate SG-1 functions pretty well as methadone for this addiction.
Not even close. It's cotton candy to Farscape's saté. (Block that metaphor.)
Tracy: Well-- That call -- That call means you just murdered me. Mal: No, son. You murdered yourself. I just carried the bullet a while.
'The Message'
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.

Not for me. Sigh.
Nor me. I find SG-1 palatable, but otherwise utterly forgettable and mid-range quality at best.

Our wings are not tired.
I want more Farscape.
SG-1 may provide a couple familiar faces, but no solace. Still, new episodes tonight. TGIF! Whee!

Also? Aeryn could kick Teyla's ass around the block while flossing her own teeth.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Aeryn could kick Teyla's ass around the block while flossing her own teeth.
Well, yeah. So could Chiana, for that matter. Teyla's probably the weakest character SGA has.

It's like when people realize that shrift and nestra are the same person.
Just don't ask me the Sondheim questions, as I shall "pretend" not to know the answers.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
In the scene where he gets a name, he says, "this is doctor ZELenka, Doctor Weir," and she turns around and calls him "ZeLENka", and so does everyone else from then on.
...hmm. That's weird. The actor is Czech - well, left Prague when he was still a wee lad, but given that he's been back and lived in Prague, and his parents speak Czech, it's reasonable to posit that he's got at least a nodding acquaintance with the language. So his pronunciation should be right. Right?
I should know this. I lived in Czech Republic for a year and I worked for a Czech company, mostly with Czechs, for 2 years. And yet now they both look right.
head explodes

Also? Yes, Aeryn could break Teyla in a matter of seconds. It's like Sauron V Voldemort - not even worth betting on.

I want to see this, you know, NOW.

I would think so. My friend who lived in Prague for years would know. Next time I see her about online, I'll have to ask. If I remember.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
See, ZelENka seems okay to me. I'm trying to remember whether the emphasis goes on the penultimate syllable or the third-from-last syllable, and it's going my head in that I don't know. Shame on me. I try to remember a sentence, and it comes out half-Czech and half-Arabic.
Am twit.
thinks
It's Martina NaVRATalova, not NavrataLOva, I think. Hmm. Iva BITova. JAroslav.
Yeah, I guess it should be ZElenka.
