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.

Yeah, it was mentioned by Sam in an aired scene.

Ever fired your gun in the air and yelled, 'Aaaaaaah?'

I thought that BSG was pretty good. Not as good as the last two weeks but it can't be consistantly awesome. I loved Baltar healing Roslin to get out of being president and then giving Gina a nuke out of hurt feelings and spite. It's so Baltar.

Compassionately intolerant

I've had BSG Season one on my Netflix list for...okay...since the day it came out...with no love. Today a total stranger lent me his set. Suweet!

I'll never be caught up. But at least I'll be less behind than having only seen the mini. Again I say...suWEet.

I have mine lent out to a classmate. He's had them since September. I miss them so much.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I figured something out about SG-1. When Daniel and Teal'c went to see Janet, she asked where Jack was, as if General O'Neill were supposed to be there.

That means in that AU, Jack never left the SGC. However, that's the same AU where Sam is on maternity leave--and Janet implies that that's why Sam's not on SG-1 right now.

So if Jack is in charge of the SGC and Sam is, presumably, sleeping with someone, it can't be Jack. He's not going to be sleeping with anyone under his command, even if she's a civilian. Even Jack's not that crazy.

So, somewhere out there is a happily pregnant Sam, who I suspect is either with Pete or Barrett. Or maybe Narim...

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

Or maybe Narim...

Yeah, I was waiting for him to come through the ring at some point, too.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

There's a limit to how many guest stars they can afford in one episode. Else surely Jack should have been on one of those teams. And Jacob, too.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Last night I saw the Episode of Columbo with '70s Baltar in it. Sadly, he was not the killer, just a PI that Columbo essentially blackmailed to give up info on the killer. Oh, and I am such an aviation geek - you know how in '70s TV shows, when they showed someone traveling by air, they often showed stock footage of the jetliner's landing gear extending (and then wheels touching the ground), filmed by a camera in the plane's belly? And how the stock footage of the landing gear is often from a completely different plain type than the plane they show landing? Like, they'll show a 727 landing, and cut to stock footage of a 747's landing gear extending. Well, on this episode of columbo, they showed the a character flying in a 727, but the landing gear footage was from a B-52 bomber, which has a very unusual landing gear configuration. Weird.

Anyway, re: the new Baltar - I'm wondering if his increased wackiness is because he's going down, and soon. Like his character's arc is playing out (at least in his current capacity of VP) - maybe we'll see Brig!Baltar for the rest of the season.

Our wings are not tired.

At least he would have sexy company in the brig.

I have seen the Friday night shows, but I watched when too tired and must watch again. I do remember that SG-1 was rollicking good fun.

The A-Team is on TV Land right now, and a very young Dennis Haysbert is one Murdock's health care attendants.
