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.
Not fall-over-dead-of-joy happy, which would be the case if a certain favorite actor of mine was involved, but happy indeed.
I'll agree with that. If we are all talking about the same spoiler. Good stuff but not OMG that is the bestest news.
SGA - yeah, whatever, alien entity takeover of people that know all the codes and stuff. Kind of a filler episode. I did enjoy Not!Skinner though. Nice to see what happened to him. Good level of tension with his return.
Have to do a little work before the BSG break.
Oh yeah, there was one scene that I'll have to pay more attention on during a rewatch. What was the main terrorist chick's name? Anyway, she told Adama that a Cylon infiltrated the defense computers (or something) right before the attack. Adama apparantly just considered this part of her conspiracy theory nonsense. Anywah, terrorist chick is dead, but her 'Zine o' Conspiracy Theories is now floating all over the fleet. So I'm thinking that
eventually
this will all lead back to Baltar, but with this show it could take a few years....
Okay, I did a search on Amazon for Due South and this is what I came up with.
It's weird how there are entries at the lower price and then other entries at OMG so expensive!Price.
I kinda figured that the OMG!expensive ones were "imports" (though how hard is it to import things from Canada?)
Plus they don't have a S1/S2 boxed set on Amazon. Color me puzzled.
Deepdiscountdvd doesn't have a season 1 & 2 boxed set either, but their prices are somewhat better than Amazon's. (Although, I think that Season 2 is cheaper at Amazon.)
There are entirely too many choices amongst DVD sets of certain shows. I've no idea which Farscape set is best, and so I've bought none. I need complete sets of BtVS and AtS, but I'm paralyzed by too many choices.
Zen,
get the starburst set for Farscape. It is cheaper than the previous sets, but it isn't yet complete. I think they are in the 3rd season for it.
Marvy, le nubian, thanks! I was thinking of doing that very thing; glad to have my choice confirmed.
Finally got around to watching SciFi Friday! Both Stargates were cute. I liked the BSG ep a lot -- not a huge fan of Starbuck opening fire in the lounge, but not terribly surprised either. Truth is, she was always better as a hotshot viper pilot than as a commander. She doesn't work well with others, and she really likes shooting things.
Sad to see Billy go, but he was doomed the moment the ring came out. I liked the parallel of Starbuck listening in on Lee and Dualla in the infirmary. I liked Starbuck's panicked reaction on the phone after she shot Lee, too -- not just that he might die, but also knowing full well that she's already gotten away with killing one of Adama's sons, and he wouldn't forgive her a second time.
Starbuck was the most interesting aspect of the Show - she is at a point where being a hotshot doesn't work anymore, yet she has no idea what to do.
and Lee is gonna be giving her such grief for shooting him....
