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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Who is the vaguely Tyrell guy on SGA? He's all hair and arms right now (delayed but yum), lots of arms.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Eyes ! thats where I knew him from.

So how did they make Boomer fall for Hilo ( doI have his name right? ) , if it wasn't something Cylons do. and was Boomer and Chief another experment to see if love conquers all? And where does this fit into today's natter disscusion?

Oddly, DH was way more wigged by the farm than I was. But the same thing happened with The Handmaids Tale. I wonder if it is because it seems logical to me- as a step when ther population problems. Or if the guys I know that are wigged , it is because they are basicly supurfluous in these situations?

If I only had a brain...

Why am I supposed to like Daniel? Because based on this season, he's a pompous git.

Because of his endearing facial expressions.

Yeah, sorry, that's all I got. This season is going around in circles so far, and while Vala is making the circles more entertaining, she can't entirely distract from the fact that I've seen these trees before.

Seriously. The Ori are bad. The Priors have powers beyond our ken. They want people to worship them and we don't know how to stop them. Sing along.

I haven't watched this week's ep, so I am going to have to go with the arms and the wow cute for liking Daniel. The arms... The cute... But I think they are doing some sad things to the character.

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

Oh, he's been this guy for nine years now. This is exactly the guy Daniel is.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

This is exactly the guy Daniel is.

Pretty much. He tries, you know, but they give him these terribly earnest speeches, and it just, you know, never ends well.

I actually enjoyed the episode, because it had Claudia. And Teal'c looked positively horrified at Vala. And I liked that they utterly failed in protecting the citizens of unnamed planet number 238. And we got at least one lovely scene with just Cam and Vala in the mess.

But it felt like it was badly edited. WHY was Teal'c back? Since he left last episode? And how did Mitchell get sick when they'd just spent a few minutes explaining that none of SG-1 (ish) were getting sick but they didn't know why?

And didn't anyone tell Daniel and Vala that guns don't work on Priors?

I suspect Daniel needs to talk to Oma. Or Sam needs to hail Orlin, or something, and get some advice about the Orii. Because the Tau'ri are kinda fucked.
