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.
Next season we're going to discover that Sheriff Carter is now being played by Ian Somerhalder, and when asked what happened to Colin, the network will reply that the Buffistas filled his head with crazy ideas...
Belatedly want to take back my misinterpretation of the show. Misunderstanding the first scene with Allison and Nathan messed up the rest of the ep for my viewing experience.
What still bugs is Salli's portrayal of Allison. Now I understand the irritation that flowed through the rest of the ep in regards to Allison's emotional state, but there was still something off. Was it a deliberate choice to have Allison fronting her heartbreak over the divorce by trying to be aggressive and short-tempered but having it come out awkward and stiff and a little hysterical?
Also, starting to appreciate the "mood-ring" because all those times that Nathan was at his "threshold tolerance", he was cool as a cucumber. Which makes me kinda scared of him that you can't really tell when he's angry. I also picked up lots more cool bits of Ed Quinn's performance where he's, pardon the cliche, seeming kind of a shell of himself. The energy is just a little off, the voice a little sluggish, the shrugs and slightly less composed posture. After he's done fronting his anger and irritation, he just seems... smaller. Was having him sitting while everyone else was standing a deliberate choice?
Anyone else a little scared? You already have nonplussed covered.
Not scared. I am, however, thinking that we have an opportunity to suggest that "foamy" is just the sort of adjective the folks in Eureka (especially the crowd Zoe hangs out with) might use to describe people who are, er, foamy.
Looks around Eureka, yep, foamy!

I just figured that the times Stark did not seem his usual, focussed self were due to times when he was absorbing more information from the computer. It was enough to make me wonder if the nanogeneids had taken over the computer, and if the computer had taken over Stark. At first I thought that what turned out to be Nano!Stark was Real!Stark as controlled by the big 'puter and the Nanoids. The Nano!Golems were far creepier than a Hal!Stark would have been, I think.
Also, why was anyone (I'm looking at you, Stark) blaming Fargo for the mess with the neural interface? Seriously, what kind of flaming idiot agrees to be the first human trial for a thing like that - and don't point out that Fargo had installed one on himself. Unless the point of it was that Stark's tasty, ruthless exterior truly hides a far bigger inner geek than we have yet guessed, even taking the ultra-advanced android creation into account.
ETA: the end of a sentence for the purpose of sense-making.
That would be so fucking funny if "foamy" were the new hotness for the high school set in Eureka.
And by the way, you guys have no idea how indispensible this feedback is. It goes right to the top and we all discuss it. Even the phrasing of ideas in the posts gives new insights and fleshes things out better.
We're very fancy.
Oh, speaking of heads and whatever, I just saw pictures of Gillian Anderson from that Last King of Scotland (?) movie, and not only is she a midget, her head is enormous. FYI.
GA is kinda the gold standard for industry midgets, isn't she? Well, her and Tom Cruise.
Fargo would totally use 'foamy' as an adjective.

Heh, this is what I want to answer to be. Hell, the man build his own artificial person and bonded with it.

Wouldn't Seth Green be in there as well? Also? Dustin Hoffman who's both shorter than Cruise and the original inspiriation for GET SHORTY.

It takes true brevity to get a tallification-box named after you.
I think Seth Green doesn't count, because he is just like, "Dude, I am short. So?" Whereas, with Scully, it was all about pretending that Mulder didn't have to crouch down to whisper in her ear.
I think Dustin Hoffman's allowed to be short onscreen too. Tom Cruise, on the other hand, is tall, like American heroes are.
You know.
