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.

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

Rumors about the BSG schedule change: [link]

There are mutterings that one reason could be that parent network NBC is considering lifting the critically acclaimed show from the smaller niche channel to NBC proper, as there's a dearth of promising new shows in the pipeline, according to SyFy Portal.

NBC has already tried to rebroadcast specific episodes, including an abbreviated version of the pilot, of the show to expectedly low-ratings results. Of course, those were expected because the episodes already aired. But given the mainstream critical acclaim of the series, as well as its tremendous popularity in iTunes downloads (as well as continued illegal downloads), there is some chatter that NBC Universal -- which owns both SciFi Channel and NBC -- could be considering moving the series to NBC.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Will I like it, Jessica? I don't want to click if I don't like it.

I think it will generally be liked.

That was before they had Four Kings to compare it to...

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

Is that the SG1 casting spoiler?

When did they show BSG on NBC? And how did I miss it? Oh, that's right, I missed it because I don't watch NBC, except for West Wing and L&O:CI, and they wouldn't cross-promote BSG during those shows.

If that's the SG-1 casting spoiler, it's an itty bitty one, really. Although it does include some plot-related SG-1 spoiler that I think is of more interest.

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.

Rekma Sharma. For a moment, but just a moment, I thought I was seeing Elizabeth Pena as Billy's replacement. Anybody else?
