I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

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.

"Either it's murder, or this library has a very strict overdue policy."

I know. No new Doctor Who is wrong on so many levels. I'm firmly against it, no matter what the argement for the off the airness might be.

Art Crawl!!!

Why did they bring Sam back without her space suit?

I agree - the guards just turning the prisoner over to Michael seemed wrong.

And on a hive ship is there really only one female?

They're like queen bees in an insect colony. Maybe they have immature queens or preserved eggs elsewhere as backups.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Totally didn't buy that the Wraith guards would just turn John over to Michael like that

AT that point, DH said "That's the problem with a fear-based society. Fear is easy to hack." Which works for me.

I am all excited that there will be Dead Like Me on SciFi!

I did wonder how effective lying could be among creatures bound together in a hive mind. Obviously, they can't all be aware of each other's every thought, but it seems like one of them who's suspicious of another could get a good idea of truth/falsehood in a conversation.

Although the Wraith don't have a hive mind, I don't think. Though they seem to have some telepathic/empathic abilities.

I'd thought Teyla's experience in "The Gift" showed that all the Wraith were in some level of telepathic contact with each other at all times.

There's a cheesy werewolf movie on SciFi right now, and I have to applaud the woman calmly loading a shotgun and firing at the creature that just disemboweled her redneck hubby in front of her, rather than shrieking and running into the woods wearing high heels. I think she may be the little sister from "the Night the Lights Went out in Georgia" all grown up.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I want the Wraith and the Ori and the Go'ould to somehow meet

Now there's a *real* axis of evil.

I have GOT to see this.

You can watch half of the first episode on the Sci-Fi site. So freaking funny. "I'm not Jesus Christ. I've come to accept that now."

Jamie Bamber is on the cover of this month's Out magazine. [link] The headline is interesting ("Jamie Bamber and the Queering of Sci-Fi"). I don't get it. Guess I'll have to read the article.
