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 love Rodney, but he'd never shut up enough for a proper shag.

Aw, come on. Just consider that a challenge.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

It may have been my imagination, but did they not have the notation on the screen that we were in COC.

No, they didn't -- just Helo's personal "54th day on Caprica" (or however many it was) lower-third. I suppose they figure anyone watching at this point either already knows, or will figure it out.

Ah good. The Cylon Occupied Caprica notation made my eyes roll.

Saw the newst BSG. Mostly the ep increased my Starbuck love, particularly the exasperated tipping of the bottle toward Lee with her cane as she ran by to tackle the guy with the gun. I thought the reporter that Balter hooked up with looked like she had no upper teeth.

I also thought the COC storyline got real interesting. Nice and angsty.

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

Hey, Suela, on the off chance that you see this before checking your e-mail do not read the comment in your LJ from ixchup, as it spoils the second half of Moebius in a bad way.

I'm with you Sean on the big Starbuck love. So many of her scenes could have come off OTT, but she pulls it off so well. In particular, the episode where she gets stranded on the planet and pilots the icky ship, I would have thought it impossible to make me buy that but she did such a good job. Starbuck rocks hard.

eta: a little tipsy and exhausted so without the ability to properly reference episodes. The point being that she is so often written in a way that more than challenges believability, and I not only cheer her, but believe that she makes it happen.

Am I the only one kind of wanting them to just pick up with the new adventures of DivergentTimeline!Sam and Daniel, and not go back to restore the old continuity? Just think, we might never have to watch another Replicator or Oma episode!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

But divergent Sam and Daniel lack charisma. Don't want that, nor to watch them learn charisma.

I hate the idea of AU characters feeling "there must be a better way" and that better way being the standard universe -- when it's played as a nod to the supremacy of standard -- if it's hand in hand with everyone wondering if they could be bigger, stronger, faster it doesn't bother me.

If I only had a brain...

I have just determined that the vanity plate "FRELLED" is available in California.

Edit: so is DREN. FRELL, however, seems to be taken. Anybody got other science-fictional bad words?
