I would be there right now.

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.

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.

House is sci-fi, too.

Totally. Only in an alternate universe would doctors have the skilled technical training to run diagnostic equipment like the MRI and mamogram machines. Also? I am soooooooooooo glad the universe they live in finally cottoned on to the not-putting shit in the mouths of people who are seizing.

ETA: Obviously the medical insurance racket is not as powerful there than it is here - imagine four doctors devoting their attentions to a single patient for hours on end, without getting warning notices from the patients' insurance companies saying they need to start being more efficient with their billed hours.

If I only had a brain...

Note that on House Cameron runs all of House's lab tests, and all of them run their own MRIs. I don't *think* so. [x-post!]

I am a very bad BSG/GG fan. I totally missed this incident of Lorelai Gilmore using the word, "Frakking".

Apparently the word "fracking" is more widespread than we thought: [link]

Ever notice that nurses are almost entirely absent from the House 'verse?

Also, 24 should be consider SF just on the strength of Jack's ability to maneuver around LA during rush hours. At least this season with the curfew, there's a reason that he might be able to get somewhere fast.

Oh, HEEE.

HOUSE has nurses only when Wilson is boffing them.

Thrive to spite them

They've been doing that all along, if memory serves.

CSI started out at least having a cop in the same room and mostly running the interrogations with the Grissom, Kat, whoever present and asking questions but not really running the show. The last few times I watched it was just the CSIs.

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

Did Quincy ever interrogate suspects in the box?

Here's a link to the post directly: [link]

It's the second BSG reference on the show (Rory once mused that her grandmother was in every room of the house, like she was a Cylon).

RE: BetsyHP's link.... now I wanna know what famous landmark DB threw up in...

House also has nurses when less than the whole set of ducklings is in the room and they need to do something complex, like restrain a patient, restart their heart, etc.
