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.

there's a lot of first time fic in the SV fandom, but also quite a bit of "established relationship" fic. it's cause committed!Lex is such a woobie.

If I only had a brain...

There's tons of long-term Angel/Spike slash. Being vampires and all, they've got time to kill, but you'd think the same would apply to Immortals.

Er. I could be talking out my ass, but I think it depends on the main pairing in a slash fandom. Like, in Due South, you've got Fraser and Kowalski, who are partners and buddies and canonically sled off into the sunset together, and there's a lot of established relationship fic out there. I think Duncan and Methos fall more on the Insurmountable Obstacle side of things, and thus there's a big emotional payoff in getting them together.

Um. If that makes any sense.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Yeah, but we saw Duncan and Methos meet on the show. I bet that makes a difference.

And there's Amanda, and Duncan killing Methos' ex-boyfriends, and Methos killing Duncan's ex-girlfriends, and really, they've not got a lot of time during the series for established relationship goings-on. At least, not until a few years later.

My secret Highlander pairing is Joe/Methos. I've read like two Joe/Methos stories, which refuse to magically multiply into hundreds of good stories for me to read.

Is there anyone we can bribe?

Rolling Stone has an article on BSG and its relevance to today's current issues (SPOILER warning for the pic next to the article--apparently, it's from an upcoming ep).
