You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

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.

So much was explained when I realized that of the 3 episodes that I'd really loved in the first season, 2 were by Moore.

To be fair, I'm not exactly thrilled with those recaps myself, but that show was so damn hard to talk about. All that staring!

All is well that ends in pizza.

After seeing the Doctor Who screencaps above, i am left with only one conclusion;

New Doctor = Jarvis Cocker

That reminds me of "Dead Ringer's Christmas Special" which featured a short sketch called "Christmas at Doctor Who's"

Here is the sketch in AVI format: [link]

Here is the sketch in wav: [link]

I edited them down from the large file they had at the BBC of the whole ep.

I'll delete the files from my website in a couple of weeks, each one is 12 mb and 13 mb respectivly.

Hilarious for longtime Whovians.

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

Oh, Strega! That's marvellous!

"Christmas at Doctor Who's"

Their David Tennant is, unfortunately, rather terrible, but they didn't have a lot to go on at this point (the Dead Ringers Special aired before the Christmas Invasion).

Jon Cullum's Tom Baker is so good, I believe he's actually done some audiobooks and stuff as the Doctor.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Strega, that's kind of awesome. *g*

Art Crawl!!!

I got the "Christmas at Doctor Who's" as an "extra" from the lovely person who made my "Christmas Invasion" dvd.

Strega -- how funny! Now you MUST see that episode. (And Supernatural is a tv show that has been improving over the season.)

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Huh. t goes off to check Ron Moore wrote "Pick A Number"? (That would be the one with the poor Dora Mae and the miners.) Oooh. That was probably one of the most viscerally upsetting hours of TV I've ever seen. I still can't think of that last bit without breaking into a full shudder.

That's how it felt to me. "Pick a Number" was more than chilling.

I learned from my flist today (could be old news, but what the hell) that Katee Sackhoff and Nathan Fillion will be starring in a movie together - White Noise2: The Light.

Also, an interview with Katee Sackhoff on KUFO in Portland that has some funny bits. Be warned, it is a bit spoilery: [link]

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

That was probably one of the most viscerally upsetting hours of TV I've ever seen.

Oh, hell yeah. Brilliant, brilliant - yet disturbing - stuff.
