Wash ,'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
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.
grrrrrrrrr. Soon, soon I say, I shall be able to uncover the words of the white font with spoiler impugnity. And I shall be the master of all spoilers! Mwahahahahahaahhaahah!
But the real question is, why do I so want to put that unneeded g in impunity?
Because the word 'impugn' really does have a g in it, even though 'impunity' does not.
Thank you, Karl. I feel slightly less insane now.
Nice cleavage on Mary McDonnell.
I picked up this week's TV Guide because it had an actual DVD attached to the cover. The listing for this week's Doctor Who: "Earth goes to war, testing the friendship of the Doctor and Rosie [sic]". Doctor Who may be everything in England, but--Rosie? Oh, and almost nothing about Doctor Who in EW's Summer TV Preview. So, not a lightning rod for media attention here.
Simon, I knew the music sounded familiar, and not very Whovian. I liked it, though.
While I personally was spoiled ages ago, I have to say I don't appreciate SciFi showing a next week week promo that revealed the Daleks were behind everything 10 minutes before that surprise was revealed at the end of the episode.
That blows! Man. Incidentally, that Dalek reveal is when the Doctor explains the title of "The Long Game," right? I love that. And Debet, one of my favorite moments in the series is the Doctor freaking the fuck out of the Daleks by telling them he has no idea what he's going to do, that is how pissed off he is.
Here's some 2x08 whitefont!
Damn! I really liked it. It was all sci-fi with genre trappings, which really worked for me. Plus, the doomed chick was cute, and Ida was in Spaced, and there was an Indian dude, and it was all creepy with the Satan and the Ood and...yeah, I liked it much more than last week's.
The Toby thing ("Don't turn around. No, don't turn around! If you turn around, I'll kill you. I'm right here behind you...") was wicked fucking creepy. I was trying to think of what I would do in that situation, and I was thinking...maybe I wouldn't turn around. To stay on the safe side.
About three-quarters of the way through the episode, I realized that I didn't really have a clue where the episode was going, and I liked that. I liked that it was so unpredictable. Yes, there were hints that it was quite likely for Satan to rise up somehow, but I didn't know what was going to happen when they reached the core.
And the TARDIS! How will they get it back?? I love how half the dialogue is "That's impossible!" And the Doctor's like, "Um, impossible is bad."
I am unsure how next week's episode is going to turn out, though. The promo makes it look like kind of a generic "being chased by monsters" episode, but I think it will be better.
This was cool! I'm so glad, especially since I felt like I was kind of losing interest this season.
Hmmm, new long promo for Eureka about half an hour into Voodoo Moon.
BTW, SciFi is promoing the season finale of Doctor Who as if it is happening tonight. Weird, no?
Oh, I'll keep an eye out for the new promo.
