Seems like everyone's got a tale to tell.

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.

And Foothold has Maybourne!

Foothold:

En route to the infirmary after an extended mission, SG-1 learns that part of Stargate Command has been sealed off because of a chemical leak. Soon afterward, during their routine examinations, medical officer Dr. Janet Fraiser injects each member of the team with a sedative, rendering them unconscious.

Teal'c is the first to awaken; he secretly observes Dr. Fraiser and Gen. Hammond talking with two aliens. The general orders Teal'c and Maj. Samantha Carter placed in holding cells. Feigning unconsciousness, Teal'c waits until he and his escorts are away from the infirmary before overpowering the guards and waking Carter.

Carter and Teal'c quickly realize that they cannot trust anyone in Stargate Command and must seek help from outside the base. During the escape, one of them is captured. The other must rely on the one person they can't trust in order to save SGC and Earth from imminent invasion.

I don't know why I'm pasting descriptions instead of just summarizing. Lazy? Yes, I think lazy.

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

Aha. I was wrong.

I like Proving Ground, not least of all because I was fooled by it, but still enjoy it on rewatch. Plus, characterisation setup for the ep where the boysoldier gets Jolinar.

::cough::Lantash::cough:: Who are you, and what have you done with ita?

I liked Proving Ground. I like Foothold a lot for the Maybourne stuff. It's before he's really a go-to guy, but he sort of ends up that way despite himself in the ep anyway.

Jesus. Training is killing my brain.

Let's pretend this whole thing never happened, eh?

Deal. I found it rather unsettling. Or would have, had it happened.

Did everyone else know that PW was going to be on Medium? A pleasant surprise. Not that he was on it much.

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.

Doctor Who: the clay adventure [link] short animation. Not particularly spoilery that I can tell.

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

The Cylons won't expect them to come back on a Monday....
