'War Stories'
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.

In the October issue of SciFi Magazine:
THE NEW FACE OF SCI-FI
Sit in on a roundtable with David Goyer (Batman Begins), Ron Moore and Joss Whedon as they talk about the end of Star Trek and the future of sci-fi. Transcribed by Patrick Lee.
Not available online that I can see. Don't know if it's hit the bookstores yet. Perhaps I'll go see tonight.
(Ron Moore is head writer and producer for BSG.)
Hi! Heh. I think that's it, or close enough. It sounds familiar, anyway. I seem to remember the episodes better than what I said about them. Once or twice I've been quite surprised, reading things that I don't remember writing.
SG-1 folks: Lovely Vala snippet here: [link]
I listened to my BSG season one soundtrack on my way to and from work today and also read the lyrics on the songs that they show. This one is just too funny:
Maledetto sia tuo cuore Cylone
C’é una tostapane nella tua testa
E porta tachi a spillo
Numero Sei ti chiama
Il rivelatore Cylone impone
La tua ragazza è un tostapane
Maledetta siu tuo cuore Cylone
Ahimè, disgrazia! Ahimè, tristezza e miseria!
ll tostapana ha un bel vestito
Rosso come la sua spina dorsale ardente
Sussura Numero Sei
Per tuo commando
Sung in operatic style. Here is the English:
Woe upon your Cylon heart
There's a toaster in your head
And it wears high heels
Number Six calls to you
The Cylon Detector beckons
Your girlfriend is a toaster
Woe upon your Cylon heart!
Alas, disgrace! Alas, sadness and misery!
The toaster has a pretty dress
Red like its glowing spine
Number Six whispers
By your command
Ha! That's beautiful.
I sense the next Broadway hit....
Toaster! The Musical!
Me, I'm seeing a whole opera cycle, like the Ring of the Nibelung or something.
24 hours of operatic toaster music!
Also, this just in, Scifi channel to program more science fiction - revolutionary!!
With only a half dozen exceptions in my 40-plus years [in Hollywood], I've never allowed anyone else to stir my porridge. And as far as 'Repent, Harlequin!' is concerned, well, even I consider this gig to be a ball-buster. I wouldn't trust it to anyone else.
Is it just me? or is this porny?
