I was just telling a co-worker who I know is a genre fan about the return of Doctor Who, and another co-worker (a very cool older lady) was standing nearby and blurted out an "All right!" over the news. I had no clue she was into genre TV, but she said that she now has to find her old Tardis that she has in storage somewhere.
I'm supposed to deliver you to the Master now. There's this whole deal where I get to be immortal. Are you cool with that?

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.

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.
Aren't Philips and Magnavox the same comapny? I have "Philips Magnavox" filed somewhere in the mental archives.
Philips Magnavox would be a good detective name on one of the Ruby series or Firesign Theatre, maybe better on FT. I seem to remember Philips Magnavox too. (Just that my Philips has those cool undocumented key sequences that activate normal features that it seems to be missing, like search by time and chapter. Still haven't figured out how to open the tray with just the remote though.)
Kathy A. That co-worker sounds cool. You never know, do you? The Brit couple who keep our local Doctor Who fan club going, you'd never guess to be Whovians, unless you saw them at the club or volunteering at the local PBS station that showed Who for several years after the show ceased production. They look so normal and non scarf-wearing.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

On mine, the tray will open if I hold down the Stop button for a couple seconds.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Mine too (it's a Phillips).

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Really? Huh. That never even occurred to me. I just figured it was the world's worst remote. Must try when I get home.

Really good remotes shouldn't require manuals. t /obnoxious right back

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I knew about the stop-eject thing (I think Jon mentioned it), but it's still the world's worst remote.
