Boxed Set, Vol. III: "That Can't Be Good..."
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.
See, in the Galacticaverse, they have only three medical tests, and two of them involve looking closely at someone and saying "Hmmmmm....probably not a Cylon." This is why Cylons are indistinguishable from humans according to "every known medical test."
That this society somehow managed to invent both AI and FTL spaceships before the X-ray is just one of life's deep mysteries.
Although... How many people did the nanos scavenge for carbons? There were a buncha Starks.
I assumed they were hollow.
And Allison's cell phone is um, special. In some way.
I really liked this ep, too. Even the Jack/Allison! Because, see, when they're actually together, talking to and looking at each other, there's some chemistry. When the show is making cute jokes about it, it's annoying. And if Allison and Stark get back together because of it, so much the better.
The "you dream of world domination?" was lovely.
Dude, that music wished it was 70s porno music
Damn, after Colin's rant this afternoon I totally spaced on paying attention to the music. I guess I was just astonished that the PDA wasn't as contrived as I was dreading.
The camera stuff was weird, though. What, for instance, was (dead, possibly gay) Larry screaming about? I gotta assume it was Not!Lojack who took him out, but they never showed what happened at the point before assimilation that would freak people out.
Jesse, the podcast is here: [link]
and *sigh* re: the new Zoe/Wash, but Henry has the lovely Tamylin Tomita, who'd better come back!
The music isn't that bad. I really kind of like this scene.
Allison got her cell phone the same place that Scully and Mulder got theirs, so that it works inside of caves, government installations, alien spaceships or what have you. Verizon and Sprint have nothing on this network....
Do the extras have to dance to no music during filming? Cause that would really suck.
Jo=HAWT. Love the dress. And the hair. And the makeup. And the smile. I love her and Tag.
Next week's previews look really good.
Yeah, the extras have to dance to no music and we have to yell over nothing. It's humiliating - for them.
We did the podcast tonight : Jamie, Ed, and I. Will post it tomorrow.
Barry White. Should have been Barry White.
Actually, the only quibble is I'm pretty sure we've seen Allison use her cell phone in the GD building to talk to Jack outside of it, which would seem to ignore the EM shield. We're gonna need some wank.
she did say "unauthorized" use. As a person who's cell phone goes out when I drive too close to the Pentagon, I think that it could be legit :)
I was dreading the scene, but I think that it actually worked. I particularly liked the slow "subtle" hand slide onto her ass.
I want some Vincent backstory. I like his quirkiness. I'd love to find out how he makes all of that food. Bet he invented a food replicator. Carter's going to be pissed when he finds out it's all soy protein.
