Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

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.

Yes, I watched for the cast.

I hoped that the gigantic cockroaches were the aliens. I am sad that they are not.

Anyway, the pattern looks like a cyclonic storm. Why wouldn't one of the guys mention that?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm also going to give Invasion a try, since it has William Fichtner.

I think I'll be watching it in the hope that combining Eddie Cibrian and a warm Florida setting will result in beach/poolside scenes at some point.

That's right - I knew that there was one with William Fichtner -- what night does that come on?

Oooh, the new Atlantis was good.

Lots of Rodney. Some very funny lines. New credits! Longer than five seconds! And a sweet little Ronon and Weir bit at the beginning.

Guy #1: Man, there are so many hipsters around. I hate hipsters! Guy #2: You're at the wrong place. That's like going to Vegas only to say "I hate titties!" --The Warsaw, Williamsburg (OINY)

I watched "Supernatural" (yes, I know *hangs head in shame*) and it wasn't that bad. Jenson Ackles brought the funny and the hot. The other kid was unimpressive but a good foil for JA (who was reminding me of a young James Spader, what with the haircut and the snark).

I watched Supernatural and enjoyed it -- found it very creepy and will be watching it again.

I thought the same thing about him being Spader-y! I feel so validated now. I think the scruff helped, too, because it made his face look wider.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

"Supernatural" was hokey but in an entertaining way. It also seems to be inciting a lot of "Incest Yay!" type of excitement between the brothers in the fandom, which is... hmmm. I don't know. It's not like I can point fingers since I was one of the people who saw a strong vibe between Simon and River in the Hodgeberry scene, but it leaves me sort of uneasy.
