If Brendon weren't a great guy and so obviously right for you, I would totally suspect you of being a namedigger.
Hey, if it means I don't have to read any more, woo and, might I add, a big hoo.

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.

If I only had a brain...
Casting spoiler for SG-1: [link] Apparently Michael Shanks was at Creation Con this weekend and coyly did not deny that Vala's coming back after the six-week run. "If I'm to take his comments as gospel, he came right out and said she'd back, and I got the impression it would be before the end of the season."

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
Whitefont: Whee!

Indeed.
Maybe we'll get to see Sam's reaction to Vala. Could be priceless. Jack's would have been even better.

I can imagine Jack's pretty clearly, but I'd be very interested to see Sam work with her. I don't think she'd have much patience with her, but... well.
She would totally want to team up with Daniel RE OMG crazy woman!

My impression has been that women (particularly serious, hardworking women) are generally a LOT less tolerant of other women from the charming flirty troublemaker mold than even guys who feel no attraction to said troublemakers. At her first meeting with Sam this season Vala better catch a go'auld just before it can take her over or something similarly gratitude-generating.

yep. cause you can't help but feel a little irritated that you got where you are by hard work and brains, and she got where she is because her eyeshadow matches her lipstick.

It isn't as if Vala's seductress act is working well on the guys, either.

All is well that ends in pizza.
She seems to enjoy trying, tho.

There's a corrollary for guys with the "good old boy" type who golfs and martini lunches his way to business success, but I don't think it's nearly as widespread a thing.
I did hear DJs talking yesterday about a study that found women who wear revealing clothing and give neck massages at work are far less likely to be promoted than those who rely on their work record. There may be a lower glass ceiling for the office flirt based on the lack of respect such behavior from both genders, even if one finds the attention appealing in a personal sense.
