Ah, that makes sense. Carrie's mom had significant issues.
Can we maybe vote on the whole murdering people issue?

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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Carrie's mum referred to them like that.
Oh. Is that the origin of the phrase? I had forgotten that - I thought it was a term that Polly J Harvey made up in the song "Sheila na Gig."
He said Wash your face
I don't want to be unclean
He said Please take your
Dirty pillows away from me

Less than favorable but amusing review of SG1 from a Farscape fan tuning in for the first time: [link]

If I only had a brain...
Her work on Farscape proved her a hugely classy and talented actress, even in the most bizarre situations. Having her done up as shameless nerd bait seems somewhat beneath her dignity.
Huh? She's an actress. By all accounts, she's thrilled at the chance to play a character with no dignity at all. Browder is playing Crichton all over again; Black is playing somebody completely unlike Aeryn. I bet I know which one is more of a challenge.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I love Claudia, but I don't think you can hold the character of Vala up as bad judgement for someone who had a bit part in Queen of the Damned.
This line really cracked me up:
Former star Richard Dean Anderson, in his few brief appearances before exiting the series for good, has seemed bored to the point of stupefaction, delivering emotionless lines while scanning the horizon for his paycheck. For shame, MacGyver!
So that's what he was looking at over Shanks' shoulder! They must have been waving it at him like a doggie treat to get him to perform.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

This is just perfect.
(And absolutely What Betsy Said re: CB. I suppose if all of CB's post-Farscape roles were flaky sexpots, there'd be a point there, but...yeah.)

Well, nobody's ever said Stargate was OMG Quality Television! It's fun. It's likeable. It's very often goofy.
And I agree -- I think CB is having a blast with the role.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Just watched Wraithal Discriminaiton - it does look like the crew have a lot of fun with this show. I love the fact that the Wraith all get their own names, even if we don't always hear them on the show. Darrel the Wraith. Bob the Wraith. Great stuff.

Ah, beg pardon. My dl was more than a trifle blurry during the title shots.
