Welcome to the Hellmouth petting zoo.

Buffy ,'Beneath You'


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.

Yes, people who've had sci fi on standard cable forever!

Meanwhile, I had Scifi on standard cable only since the summer before Firefly started. . . before that it was on digital and I didn't get it. Then, I got offered a good deal on digital at a time when I was feeling wealthy enough to pay for it and I got digital only to have Scifi switch to standard. (But, I was already addicted to digital only channels like HGTV and BBCA.)

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

C'mon, share with the class - I'm sure they're pretty good.

Well, I'm still figuring out this Photoshop thing, but I like them. Obviously. I favour simplicity over lots of layers and textures. They're here - if any of them take your fancy, do help yourself.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Bunches of Comcast viewing areas had it change from regular cable to digital as of Tuesday.

Oh, my god, that's not even funny.

Thrive to spite them

I can't remember the details, and my Googling abilities seem to have left me, but there will be a "switch off" date when everything will go from analog to digital.

You mean that there will be no more standard cable?

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Joss goes all fanboy over Veronica Mars

Best. Show. Ever. Seriously, I've never gotten more wrapped up in a show I wasn't making, and maybe even more than those. Crazy crisp dialogue. Incredibly tight plotting. Big emotion, I mean BIG, and charsimatic actors and I was just DYING from the mystery and the relationships and PAIN, this show knows from pain and no, I don't care, laugh all you want, I had to share this. These guys know what they're doing on a level that intimidates me.

He's an adorable dork and I'd totally pinch his cheeks if he were standing next to me.

I found an article from USA Today that explains it. (Stupid me, I was using yahoo not google before).

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Last night, we were watching a disc of Season 1 Deadwood (really good show, isn't it? shrift, you're going to have to pick this up at some point so you can write me Seth/Sol), and husband said, "Hey, that's Veronica Mars."

And it actually was. It's a show full of wonderful actors, and she really held her own.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I don't think I've ever seen Joss be SUCH a fanboy before. I'm sure he has, but I can't remember (except maybe over the cast of Firefly).
