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 really didn't see much, just Aquaman drying out while Lex was taunting him with water (alas not a Blue Bottle) and then all the important people walking away from Lex and then Aquaman calling Clark "bro" a lot and then kissing Lois at the end.

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

OK, I'm gonna regret asking this, but what was there for Aquaman to do in Smallville? Do they have a lake? Does Dawson's Creek run through it? Did Aquaman find an army of perch to command?

I think Smallville has the same magical transforming body of water that Sunnydale had.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Well, at least Sunnydale was in a coastal state, unless my geography and google leads me way wrong.

eta: about Kansas, I mean -- I know about California

I thought it was pretty clear Sunnydale was near water, but in the last episode they showed the Sinkhole that was Sunnydale as being in the middle of the desert.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

Smallville has always had "Crater Lake."

LuthorCorp was testing a sonar weapon that had the side-effect of killing fish. Aquaman, aka Miami swimteam star and budding environmental activist Arthur Curry, came to town to try to shut the project down before LuthorCorp had a chance to sell it to the Pentagon.

You can have desert near water (not sure if they do in CA). It's desert near Sunnydale that confuses me more.

Aquaman, aka Miami swimteam star and budding environmental activist Arthur Curry,

That explains the Miami reference Lois made, at the time I thought it was rather random.

When Aquaman said he was going to go with the current I thought he was going to jump in the lake and literally follow the current.

Also I knew about Crater Lake, they had the mutant who was a kid who slipped through the ice and froze, and something else.

So did Aquaman get a chance to command some fish?
