I couldn't believe it the first twenty times you told us, but it's starting to sink in now.

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 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

What he should be concentrating on is painting them as foreign, EVIL gods that want to invade and destroy everyone who won't become their slaves and worship them constantly.

Yeah, a little Satan imagery would be helpful for them at this point, I think.

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

Watching SGA The Seige.

...have they all just forgotten about the wraith that's imprisoned downstairs from umpteen episodes back? Or the Genii lass who ended up helping them out in the end? What happened to these people?

That's like time sluttage. How geeky is that?

Not to worry Fay, there is a masterful episode in the writing called The Ends, they are tied up ,which covers all those things, and more.

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

...seriously, have I just forgotten about what happened to Steve The Wraith? 'Cause I thought he was in a big cage thing downstairs. Only now Bob The Wraith is in the big cage thing downstairs.

Also...if Teyla was freaking out with Wraith dreams when Bob was lurking around Atlantis, shouldn't she have been having the same dreams thanks to Steve?

...I've been waving my hands like crazy, but I think they may fall off shortly.

Oh My God! They killed Peter!

Shit. I liked Peter. Damn it.

...huh. The Siege Part II.

Colonel McIrritating has quite the most annoying voice I have ever heard.

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

Did you miss the bit where they killed Steve the Wraith? And then Bob the Wraith?

They never did explain what happened with Genii girl, I think. Sora?

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

Well, I've just seen Bob The Wraith getting killed, but I can't remember what happened to Steve The Wraith. When did he die?

Hmpph. So we leave it with Sheppard heroically pulling an Independence Day, while Rodney and Elizabeth gaze fretfully at the little blip of light representing their boy wonder, wondering how their collective bacon is going to be saved.

Grr.

Aaaand over to House. Who's just phoned for Wilson to come and ogle a lady's silicone-enhanced bosoms. Bless.

eta

Aw! "You just want to look pretty at work."

::splutter::

Wilson declaiming romantic poetry at House. I have no words.

....actually, I have mixed feelings about House. It does seem to require more hand-waving than I'd expected - I mean, we're not talking Diagnosis: Murder, but still. The way that House keeps sending members of his team off to search patients' houses stretches my credence. The shots of the inside of the patient's body squick me, but I can't quibble with it as a distinctive technique. Scary as hell, the way they keep guessing and nearly killing people, but generally not killing people - but I have no idea whether this is how this kind of thing works. It might be.

I have to say, watching this show always gives me a slight surge of hypochondria.

BUT - Damn, House/Wilson is one slashy relationship. Although, setting aside the pink-tinted spectacles of slash, on the other hand, it's just a really nice friendship. Which is good too. Bless.

I think that Steve was made into a lab rat for Carson's 50% effective Wraith repellent. And then they get a new pet Wraith, and Sheppard gets all medieval on its ass.

Actually, do we suppose the Wraith have asses? I don't see them having much use for them.

...?

Huh. Maybe I missed an episode, or something.

Actually, I definitely missed an episode of Veronica Mars. Which is kind of cool, because I've still got an episode waiting for me.

It was Carson's love interest episode! Not a great episode, but lots of Carson. The name of it escapes me at the minute. Poisioning the Well, maybe?

What other's said about Steve. When they did the deal to get the explosive from the Genii, getting Sora back was part of the deal IIRC.
