Even better, Jack Carter. Oy.
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

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.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

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.
It sounds like "Desperate Housewives" meets "The Prisoner" and has a threesome with the entire engineering departments from all Star Trek shows. I could be wrong.

Jack Carter?
Oh, that's just... No. Wrong! Wrong wrong wrong.
I'm so very tired of Jacks. Well, mostly. t clings to Jack O'Neill
Need a new name, folks!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I swear. God bless Colin and all, but the O'Neill/Bauer/Bristow trifecta of Jack is all seeing all conquering.
WindSparrow, maybe throw in some...not Northern Exposure. Dammit, there's a show that's escaping me that was a town of supernatural weirdness. Twin Peaks meets fantasy.
I think. But I don't remember.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
ita, maybe he can improv a line in the premiere about how he likes to be called by his middle name, Logan.

That's the one!
As for the Logan thing, that's SO begging to be done.

Cause there aren't enough Logans?
Well, okay, it's better than Jack. But.

Well, Logans seem to be (TVwise) insidious types, mostly with charisma to burn. Jacks are (let's excuse Lost for a moment) more the take charge and save the world types.

Hey, that Jack's a take charge type too. Though since he has no clue what's going on, he tends not so much to world saving as thrashing around blindly in the jungle and missing the chance to save wounded people.
