Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

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.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Man, I am so much a sucker for Creepy Child tropes. I get completely skeeved all the time. The roommate (who I think may be hooked now) had a good time laughing at me freaking quietly (and sometimes not so quietly) out. I'm used to watching my fandom-type television alone, so it was fun for me to have him along.

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

From IMDB:

Cult TV show Doctor Who swept the board and took home three prestigious accolades at this year's BAFTA Television Awards - Britain's answer to the Emmys. The show, which currently stars British actor David Tennant as the timelord, took home Best Drama Series, Best Writing and the Pioneer Audience Award for Best Program of 2005. Meanwhile, Gillian Anderson lost out on the Best Actress award to Bleak House co-star Anna Maxwell Martin, but celebrated when the BBC's Charles Dickens TV adaptation was awarded Best Drama Serial. Sharon Osbourne and Simon Cowell's talent show The X Factor swept away competition from Friday Night With Jonathan Ross to win Best Entertainment Program. The British version of hit TV show The Apprentice saw Sir Alan Sugar take home the Best Feature Award, while celebrity chef Jamie Oliver was honored for his factual series Jamie's School Dinners, which saw him relentlessly campaign for nutritious children's food. Other winners included London soap Eastenders, and Matt Lucas and David Walliams' hit comedy sketch show Little Britain. Doctor Who star Billie Piper accepted awards for the show saying, "I'm having the time of my life. Doctor Who is the most amazing show to work on."

If I only had a brain...

Eee! So whether or not it's a hit on Sci-Fi, there will be episodes to ahem for awhile to come.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Damn good, but just before bedtime ... not a good time to watch The Empty Child.

which is why I turned it off and watched a rerun of The Boondocks instead :) Just the one look at the creepy gas mask was enough for me. Ever since the Carver on Nip Tuck, masks have weirded me out.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Vortex, you don't have to wf aired stuff. (With like 3 levels of what people have seen, it's confusing enough anyway, IMO)

Guys In Skirts alert: David Tennant wore a kilt to the BAFTAs.

thanks, deb, wasn't sure, so I erred on the side of caution (not "aired" as I saw the other day) easy enough with a return and an "s"

Note that Tennant's birth name is McDonald, and he's wearing the McDonald tartan.
