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.
One of the things I've always liked about "A Bug's Life" is the way Crichton's first kill (2 kills, actually) is embedded in it, and they don't stop and talk about it, it's just there, and they keep going.
Oh yeah, I meant to mention that! The fact that Crichton kind of, you know, killed someone.
Also, the way a couple of relatively small plot points -- Larraq's ID chip and Aeryn's injury -- become drivers for almost the entire remainder of the series.
Hmm.
One of the best elements of the show is the relationships between the characters
Yeah, definitely.
And yes: Farscape is the anti-Trek, and they remember everything. Throwaway lines will be revisited two seasons later.
Duuuude.
Ooops. Sorry I spoiled you.
It's okay. It was more of a confirmation after her, "MAYBE WE'LL MEET AGAIN!!!"
I'm loving reading about a new Farscape love. I was pretty much watching it in a vacuum for the first two seasons.
One thing I loved about it was
the fact that Crichton started out, all Star Trekkie let's talk about this and ended up all blow every motherfucker away. And his plans are always shambolic.
I'm disappointed they didn't really follow up on the whole subconscious wormhole technology.
You'll find out why this is funny.
I'm jealous you have so much to look forward to!

This. I'd forgotten how much fun it can be seeing someone watching a show you love for the first time and getting that newbie rush. Which reminds me, I've been meaning to get over to the Nilly Firefly site and re-read her essays...
I'm jealous you have so much to look forward to!
There is this too.

Soooo funny.
Itunes is offering a free download of Scifi Inside-BSG.
This maybe only free TODAY.
Damnit, this is finally making me upgrade my iTunes.
They need to do one for Atlantis now.

Yes, this. It's really telling that in the miniseries
they resurrect Aeryn and Crichton and their immediate reaction is to snap back to back and hold guns on everybody. And they don't stand down for a VERY LONG TIME. John has become Aeryn: trust nobody, and power flows from the muzzle of a gun. (Anybody want to convince me that Aeryn has become John?)
Apropos of nothing, the BB/CB page in my SciFi desk calendar is HOTT. (They're in SG1-fu, rather than Farscape-fu, but still. HOTT.)
I think that there is more in that Inside than there was on the preview on the season 2 (first half) dvd set.
And I'm remembering that I had a dream last night, and I read spoilers for who was going to die this season (or half season) on BSG. Ellen Tigh, Six (Baltar's Six, and don't ask me how that would work), and Gaeta! I was very upset about poor Gaeta.
Oh, I would be sad about Gaeta, too. And Baltar's Six. I hope your dreams are not prophetic.
There are Sci-fi desk calendars? That's neat.
Hey, only two weeks until new episodes. Whee!
