'Lies My Parents Told Me'
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.
It's not a spoiler anyway, if you're not talking about what role he's playing.
I've certainly seen people spoiler-font for casting spoilers. Not that this would be one that gives away any plot, or... okay, it was a totally unnecessary spoiler-fonting. You hear that, people? Highlight at will -- I give nothing of any interest away.
Also, thanks, Tom.
Yeah--that's the guideline--if the casting tells you nothing about plot, not a spoiler.
although sometimes the casting of an actor who plays a character who left/died can be considered a spoiler.
If you talk about the pre-existing character the actor will play, you're pretty much saying something about the plot.
Did anyone else think they saw ASH in the trailers? It probably wasn't, because it's not in his IMDB, but I would like to know I wasn't the only one who thought so.
yep, it's him and it is actually in his imdb profile. it's just down in the "Notable TV Guest Appearances" section.
Yeah, IIRC, that's how AD got the job on Buffy.
weird that i never knew this because when i got into fandom(which was circa season 3 Buffy) i absorbed every possible thing i could.
(Again, I wish my brain stored USEFUL knowledge.)ha! you and me both. though it does make playing Scene It, Trivial Pursuit and Rock 'N Roll Jeopardy worthwhile.
I wonder if anyone ever made a Star Wars fan vid to the tune of "On the Dark Side" by John Cafferty and the Beaver Brown Band?
Probably. It's pretty an obvious choice.
Never mind.
Hey, Smallville slash fans, the episode with Aquaman (entitled Aqua, oddly) is on this Thursday.
Without home internet this week (cable guy coming to fix it Friday, and he DAMN WELL BETTER GET IT DONE BEFORE BSG), I've been watching the Seaquest DVDs that DH brought home from the office. I watched the show when it was on, but watching it now post-Farscape (in 1993, I wasn't paying attention yet to writers or producers, so I had no idea it was a Kemper/O'Bannon project) is even better. It's so cheesy and bright and full of educational life lessons! With a talking dolphin!
I have a vague memory of choosing to watch Seaquest over the first season of Lois and Clark but I may be mixed up: Maybe it was Earth 2 over Supe.
I do remember watching at least some of Seaquest.
I watched Seaquest when it was being rerun on some channel. I want to say FX, but I don't think so, I think I was watching 21 Jump Street reruns then. I worked on the closing shift at Blockbuster at the time, I'd spend my mid mornings watching all the reruns, I even got into Dr Quinn Medicine Woman around the same time.
I liked Seaquest, until the point where they were thrown forward in time, that got kinda weird.
