I couldn't believe it the first twenty times you told us, but it's starting to sink in now.

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.

This week, SG-1 hiatus finale Next week: SG-A and BSG finales?

Yep. Both SG-1 and SGA have 2-part summer finales, so they're being given their own nights.

Except the SG-1 finale will be a cliffhanger: they always are. And so, I expect, will be the SGA finale.

Dunno about BSG, but probably. I really do miss the old Buffy days, when the major plot threads got tied up before the season ended. Sigh. Yes, I'm an old fart: deal with it.

I have just realized that the commander of the Prometheus in Beachhead (and other eps - I think he's the usual commander, except when random generals decide they want to command it) is the same actor who played the pilot of Colonial One in the BSG mini.

I like him. They should use him more. Either show, really.

BSG question. When Baltar first does the Cylon test on Boomer, it seems to rather quickly. She goes in, asks to be tested, and she sits there but it doesn't seem to be a long time.

Now, in Tigh me Up Tigh me Down, it takes 11 hours to do the Cylon test. Was Boomer in the lab for that long or am I confused.

Our wings are not tired.

As I recall the 11 hour thing wasn't real. He just said that for some reason, but I don't remember the reason.

I thought Boomer was just in there for a really long time, and the ep didn't show us all of it. But I could be wrong.

Also, what is KAK or CAG, I know I've heard it used in reference to certain people but I'm not sure what it means. Although it was probably explained and I didn't pay attention.

It might be Commander Air Group or something like that, it means Lee is the head of the fighter pilots, anyway. I think he actually spelled it out in passing during the last episode, too.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Theo is correct.

Boomer's test definitely takes about 8 hours to run, because that plot is intercut with Starbuck's interrogation of Leoben. Roslyn establishes that they've got 8 hours & 40 minutes until the bomb goes off, if there is a bomb. Starbuck starts questionning Leoben, and in the next scene, Boomer asks Baltar to test her. Then there's fun with Leoben for a while before we go back and see Baltar tell Boomer that she's human. Which is immediately followed by a scene where Billy tells Roslyn that there's less than an hour before the kaboom.
