Wesley: And how does your kind define love? Demon: Same as all bodies. Same as everywheres. Love is sacrifice.

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.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Maybe I should change my name to Hastur.

I do believe my point has been made.
So, Plei, how's the Farscape re-watch going? Inspired to fic?

Our wings are not tired.
Also, we are far from monolithic in our opinions. I shudder to think what a television show would look like that actually appealed to all of us... Heh.
It is the lack of uniformity of opinions, and the verbosity of the members here that makes for the fun.
There is the occasional universal agreement on excellence or suckitude, but there is also an abundance of in-depth discussion of our entertainment choices. That is what we do. We pick apart costumes, dialogue, math, plot, and hair color. Is this not our raison d'etre?
There have been times when many of us have appreciated feedback and Buffista feedback is quality feedback from my experience.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

You forgot the most important thing: sandwiches.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
you guys have no idea how indispensible this feedback is. It goes right to the top and we all discuss it.
...huh. Anyone else a little scared? You already have nonplussed covered.

Hampered by my desire to actually watch The Iron Giant, I fear. (It's a Netflix thing for me, and I'm queue stuck.)
Though I did find myself reading transcripts and thinking wistfully of all the Chiana/Jool that people didn't write.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I don't have a "teensy" head. I think in normal circles I have normal sized head. But among the bobbleheaded-lollipop-gang that is The Screen Actor's Guild, a normal sized melon is.... why am I even answering this....
Guys with those giant heads freak me out in the same way that the freaky Burger King King-thing-guy freaks me out, which is similar in some ways but not identical to the way I get seriously, seriously creeped out by those modern three-tyned wind turbines. Luckily, Colin does indeed have a normal-sized head, and is therefore vastly more enjoyable to watch.
Tall men are fun to look at, but a pain in the neck for engaging in extended lip-lock with. Not that this has anything to do with anything at. all.
ETA: I really enjoy Stark as a foil and adversary for Carter. It's great that he is such a complex character, that he is not evil, and that in spite of the adversarial nature of the character, he is not the enemy.
Also, I agree with the others who felt that the fake-kissage at the end was not as bad as we were fearing. There was enough reluctance, necessity, as well as delicately drawn enjoyment to make this scene loads less insulting to the characters and the viewers than the magnet scene. Is the science behind the necessity better, or are we less annoyed by scientific plot-holes in the dance/kiss bit because it was written with a less heavy hand?
