I definitely think how the cast would look in promo pictures was the primary motivation for all the wardrobe changes.
'Dirty Girls'
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.
There was a BSG promo posted over at lj that I saw linked from at TWOP.
(Oooh, Billie Piper on "The Taming of the Shrew" - Shakespeare Re-Told!)
I loved the visuals of SGA. Not as sure about the story--it was okay. But the effect tricks were happymaking, and Jason knocked his shit out of the park.
I did think very strongly of War Stories during the final fight, with Sheppard hanging back on the kill.
Not sure why blasting the baddie would bring down the wraith wrath where breaking his neck wouldn't.
4400: I was so excited when I saw JAR in the guest credits. Sad now that he's not going to be back.
Okay, y'all. A friend is interviewing Jamie Bamber on Monday, and needs to submit questions. What do we want to know?
Brenda, how about your friend asking if Jamie would like to guest on Doctor Who?
(Oooh, Billie Piper on "The Taming of the Shrew" - Shakespeare Re-Told!)
Actually, she played Hero from Much Ado About Nothing, and a Hero-with-a-backbone at that! I cheered for her at the end (well, the end before the epilogue).

When I saw that Kavan Smith's one line in the whole episode was "You guys have got to see this!" I was wondering if that was why he was absent from the SGA episode that fairly obviously had a part written for him.
I, for one, welcome the new Daniel Craig James Bond.
I'm not mad about it, but I still have the love for Pierce Brosnan. I think that he was a damn fine Bond, second only to Connery (and in some ways I like PB more, but I think that it's because the original Bond was kind of a sexist asshole at times, but that's not PC anymore, so the PBBond didn't do that sort of thing). I am, however, still mad at NBC for not releasing PB from his contract back in the 80s and inflicting us with Timothy Dalton.
We're of one mind on this issue. No grudge against Daniel Craig, but I do wish the studio had kept Brosnan for another movie or two.
From my friend Sarah:
Just got done with the Jamie Bamber interview; he is very nice, well-spoken and thoughtful. The English accent didn't hurt, either :)
I couldn't get too much scoop about Season 3, except that [spoilers]there will be suicide bombings by the good people, people tortured (in the 'lost' year), he is with Dualla, and episode 4 is called "Collaborators" and will be all "people talking in rooms" -- no action.
I asked him about his sex symbol status (and mentioned the arm fixation :); I'll post his response when I get the interview transcribed!
