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 didn't watch the shows until the second showing because we had a impromtu block party thing going on down the street. A little hungover today. Blah.
SG-1 had a relentless pacing going on that both tired me out and bored me. I may have just been too tired to give it the appropriate attention.
BSG - Whee! They named the ship after me!
Someone rewrote The Princess Bride for Atlantis. So. Damned. Silly:

But, Matt, I don't think it's just a numbers thing. I mean, if you're talking about balance, it's like a thousand regular people against the Justice League (only, you know, evil in the religious-fanatic way). More or less even, IMO.
Ilovethisshow, and I'd like to thank 'Suela, Katie, and Jen for their siren pimpage of SciFi Friday shows.
You are so welcome for my part of it. Also, yay! I acheived pimp status for something! Alright!!
But the thousand regular people just got super powers of their own and have mentors that can teach them how to use them.
I am frankly a little disappointed that it turned out to be a scam driven by power hunger. I would have thought it more interesting to have the Ori actually keep their word and forcibly ascend at least the Priors upon death, as well as feeling genuine quasi-altruistic anger over the Ancients hiding the Milky Way from them and depriving billions of people of their brand of enlightenment. As it is they're just carnival hucksters on a wider scale.
That Princess Bride/Atlantis story is brilliant.
It was very very funny. I have to admit, there's a lot of funny cracktastic fic being posted under this Harlequin challenge. Even if I'm getting a bit bored with the McKay/Sheppardness of it all.
Princess Bride/Atlantis made me laugh. Especailly the line about his hair still having a life of its own.
Consuela, I was thinking the same thing and then got wrapped up in casspeach's novella-length "Animal Husbandry," which almost made me forget where the characters originated.
Oh my God, this means I'd actually like Harlequin romances if I could identify with the protagonist!
This week's BSG (the Summer finale) will run two minutes overtime.
Will TiVo know this? (I'll probably be watching live, but I TiVo BSG so I can watch eps again.)
