Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Right. Alias is like watching someone spin plates on long sticks. If you actually wonder "Why would anybody try to spin lots of plates on long sticks?" then the magic of the trick fails and it becomes pointless. Far better to comment on Will's bad hair (constant) and Sydney's straneg outfits (often). Also, soon you'll meet some fun guest stars.

I don't fear the sock monster.

There is Husker Du joke in here somewhere, I know it.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Or possibly a Blue Oyster Cult one.

you'd think SD-6 could come up with a better

Take ita's advice.

Look and the pretty wigs! And the shoes! Watch that stupid looking thing explode. Laugh at person A making moon eyes at person B. Laugh some more when someone dies.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Or possibly a Blue Oyster Cult one.

Well, they both have umlauts so they must be similar....

That's exactly how my roommate and I used to watch that show! Then it was moved to Saturday night (so, shabbat, and we can't watch tv) and my roommate got married and moved, and that was that. We could no more be "the two old guys from The Muppets", the way my other roommate described us when we watched (also, she was wondering why we were doing this to ourselves and what's the fun in watching like that. We thought she missed the whole point).

t /Grading. Grading grading grading. Really

[Edited to add a "no". Even grading should not stand in the way of a justified no.]

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

so that you can watch the game from your hotel room window

Or be watched having sex. It's very versatile.

This happened at Skydome. The hotel had to institute some rules.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

This happened at Skydome.

Sorry -- that's what I was referring to.

Ha! I am trumped in my classic rock expertise. (Actually, I don't know why it is always on classic rock stations around here, but it is, and can you tell they never say who the band is?) I really do know who did the original "Radar Love," but beyond that, I kind of have ignorance issues.
