I'm just trying to tell you that we have nothing in common besides both of us liking your penis.

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.

a new show about people who discover that they have Super Powers.

See, that right there (even without the added Grunberg goodness), that phrase just makes me happy. I want to be one of those people!

I am looking forward to the costuming choices I've seen promoed for SG-1 tonight. And I'm hoping to be thumbs-up on the BSG ep. I miss my constant adulation for that show, and I would like it back starting tonight.

All is well that ends in pizza.

My super power is weight gaining, apparently. I'd like to give it back.

I'm waiting for an Angel puppet to show up at a murder scene on Bones. Maybe just have it sitting in the corner of the room without comment, or have someone give it a weird look, look at Boreanaz, and then just shake their head.

It would have to be Bones herself. She does that thought/dismissal thing pretty well.

I liked Bones this week. That the gamers didn't turn out to be the bad guys rocks. Also? The whole analyzing of the underlying myths by a geekboy connecting with comics/GN for the first time. They so should have him still "researching" in future eps.

I think Freddy Quimby should walk out of here a free hotel

I just discovered that Star Cops - The Complete Series is available on DVD from Amazon.co.uk. I won't lie to you; I jumped from my seat with delight. I never, not for a moment, thought that it would make it to DVD.

Right, so, it was this late eighties BBC sci-fi/espionage/mystery series and couple that with the title and you're probably cringing. But it was created by Chris Boucher, who was responsible for the best episodes of Blake's 7 and it really is as high-end as television, not just sci-fi television, but television gets. If you like the 'mundanity in a futuristic setting' of BSG or the brainy rigour of The Prisoner or the dry wit of Blake's 7, buy this. Buy it, buy it, buy it. I mean, I don't want to oversell it or anything, but it's better than ten Superbowls.

Buy it.

Well, crap. The SciFi Channel, and ONLY the SciFi Channel, is out on my cable system. That must be some very specific snow-damage. And no one is answering their phones.

Wow.

That really sucks and yet is kind of amazing.

Yeah, that's just really crappy and with such precision.

I enjoyed SG-1. Fun romp. And leather. And how about that cleavage on Carter? You go on with your bad self, Colonel.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

OK, so color me boggled... I'm talking with my mother, and she's telling me that she picked up the first two seasons of Due South (including the two-hour pilot) in a boxed set at Wal-mart for $18.99.

Um.... WTF? Did I miss a memo?

Needless to say, she is buying me one.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I only half-watched the second half of SG1 after I watched Washington Week. I'll get the first part after BSG.

I'm taping the opening ceremonies of the Olympics.
