Me, too, sumi. They need to do something about her. Omnipotence and invulnerability are getting boring real fast.

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.

Art Crawl!!!
Omnipotence, invulnerability and cranky adolesence make a bad combination.
In better news: my DOCTOR WHO dvds shipped!!! Like 10 days earlier than Amazon.com predicted.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
How's Colin, Jessica? And don't hold back on my account--I'm genuinely interested.
I liked him very much! He's a little stiff in the pilot, but so is the rest of the cast -- it's a very pilot-y pilot, if you know what I mean. (Not nearly as bad as Heroes was with the exposition!speak, but still very Here Are The Characters In The Town And Here Is What They Act Like.)
His character is exactly what you'd expect in a character named Jack Carter, which is just fine. He provides good Everyman snark counterpoint to the endless geekery in the background. Oh, and his co-worker is an ex-commando who can kill people with her pinky, which made me smile.

I just watched the Eureka pilot, and so far I like it a LOT.
Good news! Less than two weeks to the SGAs and Eureka. Yay.
I am seething with anger at my lameass laptop for not working, because I haven't seen any Who since The Satan Pit, which makes me sad. Especially given that there's whitefont to read and, apparently, at least one kickass ep. Grrr.

I'm still bent out of shape over the name Jack Carter, though. Because that's just redundant on top of overkill. Argh.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
It's like an extra-bizarre portmanteau of Jack O'Neill/Sam Carter! It gives me deep wrong feelings in my chest.
However, Colin is very cute and I'm sure I'll be over it as soon as he starts shooting some bad guy wearing a well-fitting black T-shirt or something.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
No, Vonnie, not a protmanteau, he's the love-child product of their one night together before he died a noble and heroic death, leaving her to raise little Jack all by herself--well, actually, with significant help from Daniel and Teal'c, but that's getting into Full House land, and we want to remain in the land of Teh Drama.
I'm overthinking this, aren't I?

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
I bet the child calls them Uncle Daniel and Uncle Teal'c.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Also, the Jack/Sam love-child thing has some merit because that means he was born with an innate ability to wear a thigh-holster and handle a P-90 with style. Well, obviously not when he was a baby, but... you know what I mean.
The idea of Daniel and Teal'c in a sitcom land makes me laugh and laugh.
