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.

Hang on. Why did the Jaffa dude pull a Bones on Cameron? Just because he liked him? He disregarded five thousand years of his culture because he liked him? Or was there another reason I completely missed?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Because he believed Cameron was right about the Ori, and he figured it wasn't a good idea to kill off someone who'd dealt with them and knew their tricks?

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

He looks good, but it's a big change. I wanted to feed him mashed potatoes.

it is very rare for me to think a man is too skinny, which is why i think i'm so protective of him. he just looked so healthy when he was on Farscape. did Hollywood get to him, i wonder?

Ok, I'll play the scene again, but only because Beverly made me do it.

such a hardship...

tiggy, I suspect it's just a fact of life that if a guy wants to stay muscular and in-shape into his forties, the baby fat becomes a casualty. Same thing happened when James Marsters prepped for the rampant nudity in Buffy Season 6 and aged a decade practically overnight.

I think Ben started out a lot stockier though, so he has a more comfortable margin to lose weight in.

Yeah, but then he just... let him go. Presumably thinking he'd never see him again?

I know, I know, *handwaves like madwoman*.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Actually, I got that he did the opposite. He wants to preserve his culture, and feels Cameron's/Tauri/Free Jaffa assistance outweighs the one ceremony.

Breaking one ceremony to preserve one's culture is a rational act.

If I only had a brain...

I thought in this week's episode he was a little more Farscape-y.

All through this week I kept thinking "And this is different from Crichton HOW?" Except in not being insane, I just don't perceive much difference between early Crichton and Cameron.

Nah, he figured that since Cancer Man was their Prior, they'd get another episode later in the season.

What? Meta counts, right?

Especially on Stargate.
