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.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I think that NBC/Universal is really banking on future DVD sales.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

Alright, I wanted a superman homage. Fine, I said it.

Maybe it's because I know what Colin's voice sounds like, but that was almost water all over the keyboard.

Must find time to actually watch Heroes tonight...

Art Crawl!!!

Okay, it totally makes sense that it was a two hour pilot cut to one hour.

It felt like that.

Neal Stephenson got away with naming the main character in Snow Crash Hiro Protagonist.

liked heroes a lot. i loved hiro and adrian pasdar (nathan) and ali larter (niki). did you SEE that the big guy was chopped in HALF? all the storylines have subtley (is that legal) different tones which is great. milo is too brooding if you ask me. should be on a different show. and i think they are kind of ripping off the 4400 with the 'we're here to save the world but why and when' thing...

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.

But it was a two hour pilot that got chopped right?
Friends of mine saw the two hour pilot and hated it--except for Hiro. Interminable was their word for it.

also... why the did future-predicting man have to be a drug addict to tell the future? sooooooooooooooooooo boring. the greatest thing was that they used subtitles for the japanese instead of having them speak english with accents. that was so so good.

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

Hi, Claire.

I loved the twist with the brothers. I wasn't expecting anything I wasn't expecting, if that makes sense. Otherwise...too many people a bit too slow. But I will watch the next ep, because I do want to know how it develops. So they achieved that, at least.
