You're talking to Serenity. And, Early... Serenity is very unhappy.

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.

Our wings are not tired.

Hmm. I watched, but was distracted easily so didn't watch closely. I missed the dog if he was there. Still like Jack, Henry, Jo, Allison. Didn't mind that Zoe was missing most of the episode. The house was momentarily fun and amusing. Not so much to keep going on and on with it.

Baseball thing went over my head. Sorry baseball dudes.

I think not!zombie!wifey could have been done much better. Didn't buy the transformation either. I wasn't interested in Allison's hubby either.

Need to rewatch with more focus before next week. There is enough likeable that I'll be back for more. I'm easily distracted so it's tough for me to sit through a show. The pilot held my attention. This one was losing me. I'm still interested enough to want to see where they are headed.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Hmm, I guess I enjoyed it more than the rest of you, although mainly for Colin's exasperation. The baseball thing didn't ping me at all (and really, what would one expect from a computer programmed by Fargo).

I did have issues with the whole change of heart thing, but I figured they were going to go that way (and I'm glad they didn't at the point I thought they would i.e. the scene in the car).

The husband sorta reminded me of Hart Bochner in DIE HARD, except, sadly, not Hart Bochner. Jury's still out on the character.

It certainly wasn't great, but it was an enjoyable time-waster. Not a surprise as an early-days episode. I don't think it was any worse than some of the Buffy season 1 low-lights, for example.

Art Crawl!!!

So that was supposed to be a pro-ball game? I assumed when they said Indiana that it was college.

Okay, I enjoyed the episode. I liked that the "ghost" was a result of stuff that happened last week.

This, and it certainly complicates things for evil shrink lady. Since she was in cahoots with the guy, I wonder if she knew the clone was a clone.

I don't think that she did. I think that she will now go after Susan #1 thinking that she knows something that she doesn't. Assuming that this Susan will stick around.

I couldn't believe that DOD lady would bring Susan somewhere that the kid (can't remember his name) might see her. I thought that was REALLY irresponsible, because I also don't get the instant maternal instinct thing.

Except I think the real story has probably gotten around town, what with the exhuming of bodies and everything. I think the husband (who's name I'm completely spacing on) is more at risk if he ever gets completely corporeal again.

Yeah, I thought the DOD agent was WAY out of line. I was so happy that Susan snarked at her for it, too. THAT was the scene where I was afraid they were going to have her go all maternal.

Evil Shrink Lady is thrown, but I agree that Walter will be at the most risk when he is corporeal again. I was so very amused with hearing the word corporeal again. Hee. Did they mention Sarah Michelle Gellar at one point too, or was I imagining things?

doesn't matter. she killed susan#1 because she knew about Walter's "friends", not because she was susan #1. Her only worry now is that Walter will tell Susan#2, and Susan#2 won't feel the loyalty.

Did they mention Sarah Michelle Gellar at one point too, or was I imagining things?

yes, when Fargo was talking about SARAH's voice.

That cracked me right the hell up!

Funny thing is, until I typed out the sentence, I didn't see the Sarah/SARAH bit :)
