I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

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 haven't met Harvey, or Jool.

I taped an episode once, a couple of years back. Jool was what put me off making any more serious effort to catch the show.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

FWIW, Jool did get a little better.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I don't remember what my key point was. Except that Too Many Suns, in a group that identifies members solely by last name, was a crappy idea. If you're doing a forced breeding experiment anyway, why not give the kids unique number last names or something?

Way to make HR's job harder than it already is!

To start with, the PKs were evil.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Woof. Their annual reviews had to be hilarious, in that ritual suicide involving intestines way.

But, like, there is evil and then there is instutitionalized cruelty to your own employees. I much prefer my evil to be a united front, you know?

Yes, my wish is to be a shareholder-employee of evil.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

This is the thing I don't get. I assumed Crais's offing his second-in-command was routine personnel management: the Darth Vader school of HR. God knows Scorpius is continuing in that fine tradition. So why did Crais have to hide it?

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Wasn't Crais at some point ordered to stop pursuit of Crichton, but was attached to his vendetta and refused? That's why he killed his second, IIRC.

That's true. So it wasn't so much the killing his second as the killing his second to cover up disobeying orders. It wasn't the act, it was the motivation.
