Dude. The Romans totally invented reality TV. Morituri te salutamus!

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.

I've started thinking that it's a side-effect of advertising. Hype inflation. Things can't just be good, they have to be the best thing ever. So people make grand pronouncements when all they really mean is, "I liked it."
Just as annoying, for much the same reason: any variety of "even at its worst, it's still better than anything else on TV." Feh.

Vonnie, on Spooks:
I don't particularly want to post there.
Nor me: there isn't any good discussion there, it's just fic and some pretty half-assed recaps.

I have no opinion on these other shows. I'll watch Threshold when it's no longer opposite something I have more time invested in. Even though I like both Peter Dinklage and Carla Gugino a lot.
Carla Gugino! Karen Sisco! Sigh. Man, that was a good show. t mourns Karen Sisco and Keen Eddie and all the other cool shows lost to yesteryear

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
FWIW, Keen Eddie is out on DVD. I waas pissed when they cancelled that one. I thought for sure it would be a hit.

I think it could have been. Sure, it was wacky, but it was also a cop show, and people like those, don't they?
I'll get around to renting the dvds at some point. After I catch up with all the other stuff I have to watch, like Dead Like Me, Odyssey 5, and Jeremiah.

Odyssey 5! That's the show that's missing from my collection! Must rectify.

I'm watching Earl. OMG. I'm related to these people.

Ever fired your gun in the air and yelled, 'Aaaaaaah?'
Earl was hilarious.

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)
"Incest, Yay!"
Um, ew? I usually see everything, everywhere but even I don't see that.
As Demian pointed out in his recap of Supernatural
Wait, huh? I didn't think TWOP was recapping it. *checks site* Nope, still not there. I'd love to read recaps of it, I bet they'd be a blast.
About JA being Spader-esque, I do think that it's not just that he looks like a dead ringer for him, but his acting in this role is particularly like Spader in, say, "Boston Legal" when he throws out ridiculously snarky lines with such a gleeful, nonchalant and unfazed air.
Quotes: (Dean is JA, Sam is.. the other guy)
Sam: Dean, what I said about Mom and Dad, I'm sor-
Dean: Hey, no chick flick moments.
Sam: All right... jerk.
Dean: Bitch.
-----------------
Sam: So what's the theory?
[hick cop]: Seriously? We don't know. Serial murder, Kidnapping ring...
Dean: Well, that's exactly the kinda crack police work I'd expect outta you guys.
and finally, I laughed out loud at this one:
Homeland Security Man: Can I help you, boys?
Dean: No, sir, we were just leaving.
[two large male FBI agents walk past them]
Dean: Agent Mulder. Agent Scully.
PS Earl was great but I expected as much from my beloved Jason Lee.
PPS Amy Acker appears to be guest-starring "on the coming months(!)" of Supernatural, unless my eyes are deceiving me.
