I thought Epiphany was harmless--didn't bring on the hate like some of the early S1 episodes did.
But I found the reaction shots very distracting. Could have saved ten minutes by excising them.
Angel: Just admit it: you think you're gonna ride in, save the day, and sweep Buffy off her--Spike: Like you're not thinking the same thing. Angel: I'm already seeing somebody. Spike: What, dog girl?

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I thought the bits outside of the Ricola commercialvillage/fields were engaging enough, but the pastoral stuff would have lost me if it didn't center on an actor that I could happily watch in still picture form for 30 minutes.

All is well that ends in pizza.
So, finally got around to watching SGA...about two minutes into the pastoral society, I turned to DH and said "It's a Monster from the ID!" Kind of disappointed to be proved right.
Yup. So Tempest/Forbidden Planet of them.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
And the beard was really distracting.
Especially since the only other guy he interacts with? Has a soul patch. So clearly, there were precision shaving tools around, just not where unenlightened people can find them.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I liked the beard. He's pretty.
I believe Flanigan has at least one more episode coming up this season.

Oops, can't make that comment without using a spoiler...

Our wings are not tired.
Finally watched SG-1. I feel better about Cameron than I did before. I needed more backstory and Camcentric episodes for me to stop thinking Crichton every time I see him. And it is all about me.
It would be nice to have a meaty General Beau and daughter episode so that I can care about them. In particular the daughter is a non-character to me at this point.

I thought JF did a good job of being a pissy bitch/hurt pup in Epiphany -- about thinking they'd given up, maybe.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I wonder if in one of those care packages they send through, they explained the time difference thing.
