You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

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.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Ah well, even if Browder's character doesn't get any lovin' on the show, the actor will always have a place in the fans' hearts. Among other places...

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

didn't react as if a shark had been jumped

I was so impressed they went the way they did with the first Robin, and then got to use the other legend of Robin's origins to introduce Robert of Huntingdon. It was smart thinking on their part.

::is stopped in tracks momentarily, at the mental image of Ben Browder biting his thumb. "Do you bite your thumb at me, sir?" Then veers back onto original mental track::

When you get to see the RoS dvds, I think the interviews are probably the most interesting bits. Okay, the outtakes, and the spots they filmed for tv. But I really enjoyed Carpenter nattering away about sticking stuff in, and the random bits of ancient British lore that just get incorporated, the stuff that goes right over the heads of most USians. I love the episodes to bits, and certain scenes still bring me to tears or renew my appreciation of how groundbreakingly wonderful this show was then. And yes, it was the first time I ever really thought about how the feast hall would smell, with the unwashed bodies and the heat of the candles, and the ill-cured furs...

But it's nice to see the actors and crew talking about it, 20 years on. And I'm so glad they did the interviews while Robert Addie was alive.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Australia recently finished seeing every available Dr Who episode. Including William Hartnell and Patrick Troughton episodes. :)

And evil jimi lives up to name again.... Taunter.

Billie looks absolutely adorable in those lj pics Betsy linked to. Plus it looks like they're having fun, which is always a good thing.

They're doing a 1973-themed week on BBCFOUR and showing six episodes of Pertwee-era Doctor as a part of it. "The Green Death", aka the one with the giant maggots. Fun!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Whoa, JenP! How'd you do THAT?


JenP - Apr 04, 2006 2:50:12 am PDT #8095 of 10001

It actually didn't work for me, Andi. I know They have showed us how to do it before, but I was too lazy to search it out. I compromised.

Quick-edit quote and type in t font color="white" ?

Does that even work?

Whoaaaaaaaa, dude. That worked .

While my brain is actually capable of problem-solving like this, I should get to work on world peace and the global warming.


JenP - Apr 04, 2006 3:03:24 am PDT #8097 of 10001

Oh, der. For some reason, I forgot that the quick-edit would work with that. Thanks!

Andi rocks!

What? That has to be a quote from someone at some point.

ETA: DUH! All of that was supposed to be in Natter! Sorry, folks.

Ok, so how did you get yours done?
