'Serenity'


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.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

That would dovetail with my "HSSSSSSSS! Stake it NOW!" reaction to the latter around the third episode.

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

I know not Lost, but I'm kind of in awe of the excellent button-pushing job they're doing on me with Logan. I've gone from "Hmm. You're unpleasant and mean although rather attractive in an unfinished gangly boy with quirky grin kinda way, in the manner of Matthew Lillard, but, wow, same age as my baby sister and now I feel like a lecherous old lady, so maybe we'll ignore that" to "OMG. Break him some more. It's so PRETTY."

ION, I'm watching SG-1 Monday, and I have to say that I think Jonas was very underappreciated. Nemec is very likeable and the character is well played.

Logan is probably one of my favorite tv characters ever. there's just so much there. plus Jason always brings it. watching he and Kristen is truly amazing. i've felt the chemistry between them since the pilot, but the 'shippery thoughts didn't start until 1.04.

It was just so difficult to watch Jonas and not see him as Not!Daniel, I found. 'Specially since the transition was so abrupt a geek swap. (not that either of them have ever looked particularly geeky, for that matter.)

So, is there a Season 2 of Veronica Mars? Am I right in understanding it's moving to another channel? Or is it cancelled? Or...what's the what?

Yes, I bet it was a shock, but now in retrospect, he was a good character and well played. Too bad he didn't get the respect he deserved. And I love Daniel, too, but I didn't start seriously watching until the whole switch/switch back thing was over.

eta: yes, there will be a second VM season starting this fall.

Fay, backflung with the answer.

I liked Jonas, but i did feel like they were forcing him on us with Shanks' departure.

Which reminds me, why did Shanks leave for a season. Was he written off because the writers wanted to try something really dramatic? Or did he want off for some reason?

from what i can remember he wanted to try other things. i don't think he ever really did though. the fandom went a bit crazy(as fandoms are wont to do) when he left and he came back for one or two eps and then just decided to come back full time. whether or not (a) crazy fan(s) "coerced" him or not is unclear.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Fay, Veronica Mars is not cancelled, and is not moving to another channel. The second season hasn't started yet.

I know not Lost, but I'm kind of in awe of the excellent button-pushing job they're doing on me with Logan...."OMG. Break him some more. It's so PRETTY."

You're going to have to trust me when I say when this man and this man have a torture scene. It is True Love (in a fantastically fucked up way).
