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.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

So, Troy was evil, Wanda dropped a hint about the Weevil/Lily thang (granted, my initial thought on this was based on him looking all soppy at the Lily Memorial Fountain thing, but it would also mirror Logan's blonde tart having been shagging Weevil's cousin rather nicely), DaddyMars is too nice for his own good (which can only mean skeletons in closets), Duncan continues to be disarming as hell and Logan just gets more interesting by the moment.

Oh, lord.

He's still unpleasant. But also still worryingly lickable. And, er...

...there were belts. There was a closet full of belts. And - er - and I probably enjoyed that rather a lot more than I should have done. Er. Um. And then he went and handed his dad one of the belts and started to adjust his clothing. Which. Er. Yeah. Shameful moment of bunk yen. Not that I'm all 'yay incest', because, no, but - well, our Logan is quite the fucked up wee bunny, isn't he?

...yeah. So, Logan.

eta OMG. And now he's got detention with Weevil. With snark. And snark. And Weevil's all 'Do you like playing with yourself?'

And then they're busted, so they can't play cards any more, and they're wondering how they will entertain themselves, and...

head explodes.

Bowm chikka bowm bowm...

Oh YEAH. Weevil did have a thing with Lily. Housepoint for me.

BTW, did you notice that they changed Backups? With NO explanation?

They changed the dog?

No, I totally didn't notice. I'm a cat person.

He starts off as a white dog with dark spots and winds up as a red dog with white markings.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

No, that sounds about right, actually. I think I did peripherally notice, but I just assumed I'd got mixed up.

And also? OMG they nearly broke me with the Logan-up-against-a-bookshelf-with-his-hands-above-his-head.

Leather belts and bookshelves. JEsus. It's like they've got a frigging checklist.

...OMG! They've expelled Weevil! Don't expel Weevil! And Weevil's all stoic and not-telling-on-Logan.

is ded from the slashy cuteness.

And the shit is SO going to hit the fan eventually. Man. They've got this whole prickly mismatched bondage bonding thing going on, and then Logan's going to find out about the Weevil/Lily thing.

eta Oh, DEAR. Is DaddyMars really Veronica's Daddy? 'Cause if not - that would certainly make that early "Who's your daddy?" stuff painfully ironic.

...or I could be on crack.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

I so love watching people get into this show. it gives me many happies.

Daddy!Mars is totally my favorite tv dad ever. i shall not spoil you though. this show is definitely best watched unspoiled.

Fay, if you need fic recs, let me know. i have plenty saved in my livejournal memories.

tiggy, you da man!

Wow. Reality check. Wallace's mom is Coco from Fame. Who, granted, is ten years older than me, or so, but still - gosh.

I really haven't wrapped my head around the fact that I'm old enough to have kids. That one of the girls in my yeargroup had a kid who must be 16 years old by now. That I'm supposed to be identifying most with the parents of these characters, rather than with them. (Well, and plus I'm reading Tamora Pierce books right now.)

....aw, Veronica's just been told that Daddy Mars isn't her daddy. And he's such a lovely man. I hope he really is her daddy.

eta

Oh, God. And they start the Christmas episode with Weevil/Logan/Duncan poker, that ends up with lots of boys in their underwear.

head explodes

eta - Logan's mom's MOUTH. Is that for real? Or has the actress got prosthetics on her lips?

Collagen injections, I think. Aren't they freaky? I mean, why do people want to look like the Joker?

(I think Meg Ryan is the most Jokeresque of people who do that.)

BTW, I've seen the BSG feature on VH1's "Best Week Ever" and I love the comment from the guy who said something like, "they hired actual screenwriters and real actors," as a reason for the success of the show. However, the guy who said that the thing he likes about BSG is that unlike most futuristic shows when they shoot their guns they shoot bullets not wrid lasers made me sad because of Firefly.
