I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

Buffy ,'Get It Done'


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.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

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!!

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

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.

Ever fired your gun in the air and yelled, 'Aaaaaaah?'

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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

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!

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

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.)

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Depends if SciFi gets the information into the feed that it sends out to the newspapers and online services. With most of a week's notice, it should usually be OK.
