I wonder if all that electric boogaloo dancing practice they get during the quickenings makes immortals more resistant to being tasered?
Mom! Dead people are talking to you. Do the math!

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.

Either that, or they all wind up keeping the violet wand (NOT work-safe) in the bedroom.

I've had them before, Betsy. You're not wrong.
It made me blink for a second, in light of the above post.

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.
Uh-oh -- it's been delayed!
The price I've seen is $99.98.
That does it, delays are not good, and can sometimes last forever. It's Amazon.co.uk for me. I've heard bad things about the packaging (which at least looks appropriately Tardis-like) but at least the set is available, and for about $70, shipping included. Oh yeah, Region 2 and PAL--but that's what cheap, offbrand DVD players are for.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You don't need offbrand, Mikey. You can hack a lot of brands these days. I use a Philips.

Oh. I thought Philips was an offbrand. Hehe. I have one of those--it plays just about anything I put in it, unlike the Sony I used to have.

Philips? They're pretty huge. Who are on-brand for you? Aside from Sony, that is.
My previous player was a Sampo. That's some off brand right there.

From a Highlander tchotchke page:
"HIGHLANDER: The Source" logo embroidery on front chest and across back. Features inside pocket detail, zip front and slash-style pockets
If they only knew. Pockets are the *least* of it.

ita, Pioneer, Toshiba and Panasonic are what I'd consider the other majors. Not sure about Sylvania, RCA, Zenith and Magnavox, which used to be huge before the influx of Japanese electronics. Philips always had more of an audio/video geek cachet than the other majors to me.
My other player is a Norcent. I had two Cyberhomes--each lasted a year, and cost a total of $37 ($25 + $12 for extended service). I have a Presidian DVD recorder (from Radio Shack, made by LiteOn).

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
There's a subset of fandom that adores those Norcent players. They make great con DVD players, because they're easily portable and they play approximately eight million formats.
