So there is something I can do, besides scream like a woman?

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.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

You touched the Chief.

is filled with envy.

Because damn, that's one good looking man.

It's funny, because the first few episodes that I caught (the second half of S2), the one that struck me as very good looking was Jamie Bamber; Aaron Douglas and Tahmoh Penikett were merely "eh." By the end of that season, however, the Chief was definitely made of Teh Hott, and now that I'm watching Season 1 eps and seeing Helo run all over Caprica, I'm digging the prettiness of his face. I'd love to find out what his ethnic background is, because he has a very exotic look in closeup--those cheekbones, eyes, and skin tone all strike me as very Central Asian.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

But his skin and hair are all very Scots-Nordic. Also wibbleHelowibble. And when the both of them ran to rescue his-his-their-neither-Sharon from the Pegasus' crew? wibblethunk.

I think that Tahmoh Penikutt's dad was the premier of the Yukon or something.

Umm, that's all I know.

All I know is that he hits a heavy bag like someone who actually knows how to throw a proper punch. Plus OMG Helo/Chief, but I'll stop now.

Mmm, Nordic; maybe he's got some Laplander genes in his background? I don't know why I'm wondering about this--I'm just curious what produced such a prettypretty face.

I was just reading the Helo thread over at TWOP, and saw this from an interview with him:

Tahmoh's mother, Lulla Sierra Johns, is part of the Dene Nation and was born in a tent in Snag, a tiny community near the Alaska border where the coldest temperature on earth (-63 degrees C) was recorded.

So I wasn't wrong about the slightly Asiatic features; I was originally thinking Siberian, but decided on Central Asian, when I should have been thinking Native American!

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I was trying to remember if I read this here or not, but it was on LJ.

Apparently, at Comic Con, someone stood up in the SGA panel and asked David Hewlett why he was so awesome.

I saw that on lj, too, and I feel like I must've missed something. That seemed to be connected to some post card thing. What was the deal?
