Mal ,'War Stories'
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.
The thing is, he was actually right about most of his suppositions (except Teal'c coming back wrong). They just lucked out that Carter's final solution only fried a DHD as opposed to leaving a Tycho-sized crater where Cheyenne Mountain used to be.
That's the thing about SG-1. They're always right. In the end, it always works for them. Rodney's just too smart to accept that. At least, that's my theory.
That's the one, Bev. Capoeira!Goa'uld, as I like to call him.
(Bev? Do I call you Bev? Do you even like Bev?)
To me, he will always be the guy from Magnificent Seven.

Once you bring out the dumb blonde remark, I don't care how right you are. (And that's a consistent flaw in SG-1; Kinsey's got some good points too.)
I dunno. I just have no patience for jackasses, and Rodney is a arrogant jackass to Sam from the very first scene he appears in, speaking badly of her competence for no good reason and clearly trying to talk up how much more brilliant he is than her. Arrogant jackass. No patience at all. Whereas Sam is under considerable emotional stress, and doesn't get nastily personal in the same way right off; I mean, she's a little defensive, sure, but she's not trying to tear Rodney down, she's trying to hold her own.
Looking at the transcript, he does do better in their second scene, but by then he's lost me. (And then Dumb Blonde happens, you know? That scene makes me want to hold the character down and kick him. Repeatedly.)
Supernatural:
What the fuck?!?
That is all.
WTF indeed.
You know, maybe L&O is just subtle scifi.
What, you didn't see the episode where it was discovered that they're all actually shapeshifting slugs?
Great episode. See, there's this twist at the 20-minute-mark...
Evil, evil cliffhanger.
I've decided that all those CSI shows, and Bones, are totally science fiction. For instance, Bones had an episode where they digitized all the information about DC's underground utility lines, in like, an hour, and put them all together in a 3-D hologram to figure out where the bad guys where. Completely ignorant of the fact that it would take months, probably, to digitize all that information and make it geographically consistent, not to mention the whole hologram thing.
Stupid.
