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.

Our wings are not tired.

Phew! Made it through the episode. The rain is just starting again now. The bands knock out the satellite. The storm is a couple hundred miles away from me, but it's pretty big.

That was satisfying. Love the creepy Boomer so much.

Art Crawl!!!

I do too -- I like that the Boomer who isn't a sleeper agent is all strong and together.

Can they really just keep her in that cell? (Will Baltar let her out?)

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I must be one of the few in fandom who really can't stand Baltar.

Oh, I'm pretty sure there there are more than a few. He seems to be polarizing. I love him, though.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yes.

Gods only know what Baltar will do.

Or maybe it's God only knows, as he seems to have chosen the Cylon God....

I love Baltar. I do understand why people find him grating, but it wouldn't be so PhilDickian if there wasn't someone who was constantly wondering whether or not he was insane. It's just perfect.

And with Helo off of Caprica, I need a little dark humor in the mix.

I just think Baltar is a funny character. He gets all the best lines.

The actor being good at comedy helps a lot too.

Hey, Strega, are you still with me in that Six is just in Baltar's subconscious? I'm going to make an LJ poll. Cause polls are fun.

Then how did Baltar know about the baby? Lucky guess?

Although I'm not buying the "guardian angel" bit....

Yes. If you think about how sexual the Baltar/Six relationship is in the first season, it's not unlikely that it would lead to some OH SHIT YOU'RE PREGNANT?! angst. Just like in real life!

Ok, that makes sense. Except that Six told him the baby would be born in that specific room.
