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.
The Lex/Lana thing didn't bother me because I've been picking up that vibe from Lex since season 1, when it was rather squicky (early 20-something Lex vs. 14-year old Lana) so I wasn't surprised in the slightest that Lex would dream about that.
you know what's wierd? When I read Clark/Lex slash, with Clark being 15, it doesn't bother me. But, if there is Lex/lana or Lex/chloe, it feels wrong. Even the one where Clark turns into a girl bothered me. I wonder why that is?
There's a much bigger societal tradition of young girls being pressured into sex or marriage by older men with no regard for what's best for them?
Ummm, because even though Clark is 10 years younger. . . he's so much physically stronger?
Which completely leaves aside Lex ability to manipulate him emotionally and intellectually, but that's always going to be there.
Isn't Tom Welling a good bit older than Kristin Kreuk? That could influence the squick factor.
True. KK is much closer or possibly IS the same age as her character.
KK Will be 23 on December 30, 2005. (b. 1982)

Oh my goodness, there is a hilarious SGA vid up at sga_flashfic on lj. I don't know about the etiquette of a direct link there, but if you want to laugh, check out Rumble by Shalott and Speranza.
BTW,
Sabertooth

It's absolutely crack-addled, and very very funny.
Another fantastic SGA vid, this one played straight: Welcome Home, by Kanzeyori. Simply gorgeous--beautifully edited, great music, nice character insight.
