Sean, there's only 10 shows for the half-season that SciFi runs, so you're closer than you think.

Backpfeifengesicht
OK, I'll take a stab at pronunciation: back-FIFE-eng-psyched?
Or is it back-FIFE-eng-sicced?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Frank, you missed a syllable -- back-fife-en-ga-ZICHT. Ish.

More like bahk-Fife-en-geh-sichdt. (But high school German was a long long time ago for me.)

It's a remora, dimwit.
I never took German. I just couldn't do the gutterals without sounding like I was about to cough up a tumble-weed sized hairball. I kick ass at the r rolling though.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm not nannying Supernatural talk out of natter, but if you have no concerns with getting spoiled for any of the shows discussed therein, don't feel there's a barrier to going in and discussing the sff shows you are up to date in.

My kids are enthralled by the rolling R.
I finally watched Kitchen Confidential, episodes 1.1 and 1.2, last night. I enjoyed it way more than I'd let myself hope I would. I wish the actor who played Jack's live-in girlfriend/boss @ bad Italian joint (is that Andrea Parker?) was playing Pino's daughter. I assume Pino's daughter is going to be a love interest or at least a featured character, and I think [The Is-She-Andrea-Parker actor] would be more interesting in the role.
John F. Daley is Jim (the sweet Utah boy who says "Jiminy") in this! He's the little brother Sam, from Freaks and Geeks! I nearly squeed when I realized it was him, all grown up. Such a cutie patootie.
I'm not sure if Nick Brendon seemed like he is still trying to find his footing, or if it is just that I'm still looking for Xander (more likely, frankly). It was great to see him though, and he looks healthy.
This is definitely going to be a season's pass. I hope it makes it. BC is, as ever, adorable.

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

Well, drat. I missed Kitchen Confidential last night, due to an odd Law & Order fixation. (Not odd as in what an odd show to like, but odd as in the show's been on for 15 years or thereabouts and I just got hooked about a month ago.) Oh well. There's a decent chance Amyth has it on tape.
