Quantum Leap? Surely?
Not that I remember. I'd love to be corrected.

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.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Huh.
'kay.
....there really should be more places where the sub text gets to dom for a bit.
eta Watching Duet now.
...Hewlett is basing this on Jack Lemmon in Some Like it Hot, yes?
...Mother of GOD, tell me that this show inspired femmeslash. Please. Because between the Girls' Poker nights and that fabulously Gone With The Winds girl/girl kiss...
Also? Ronan (?sp?), with his man-of-few-words smouldery schtick? Every BIT as much fun as I'd hoped. Heh. It's good that they're not trying to make him do complicated acting stuff.
eta Watching the start of The Condemned. ...Teyla really is QUITE the lucky girl, isn't she? With wall-to-wall hotness on her team. (Sorry, Ford! Wherever you are.) I trust there must be fic?
GUFFAWS.
Okay, enjoying the totally pointless collars and sexy bondage goings on, but NOBODY warned me about Rodney's "What am I, McGyver?" quip.
I think my head just exploded with the meta.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I've compared Hewlett with Jack Lemmon before -- I find a lot of their acting schticks (and strengths) comparable. (Which would make Flanigan Matthau? Hmmmm.....)

Oh, I'd forgotten that one! Totally cracked me up!
I think I forgot it in all the WTF of BSG.

Do we discuss 4400 here? Cos, next week Peter Coyote is back!!
Don't know if that is white-fontable, it's in the previews, but I want to err on the side of caution.

Strawberry disappointment.
Starbuck was abused as a child!
To be fair they did mention this in an episode in S1.
Although the madly in love with Crap Sports Man was a bit of a "huh?"

It was when Starbuck was torturing the Cylon in "Flesh and Bone".
When he was messing with her head he said, or at least intimated, that her mother had abused her.

It not explicitly stated that she was abused physically, but Leoben has a long speech about how "You were born to a woman who believes that suffering was good for the soul, so you suffered," and so on. Near the start of the episode Starbuck makes a joke about how her mother always said she was empty-headed, which plays into it as well.

Ah. So it was her mother, not her father. Huh, interesting.
