Though I wonder if this means Hiro can read/speak English (which make things a lot easier plot-wise.)
I saw a few pages of an upcoming episode - he can speak broken english - barely. his teleportation face might be the best part of the entire show.
You'd never make it. I'd rip your spine out before you got half a step. Those little legs wouldn't be much good without one of those.

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.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Is The Uncanny X-Men really that popular in Japan, though?
Polite Dissent mentions that Hiro got his X-Men issue numbers mixed up.
For lightning bolts from the hands -- well, at least little ones -- you can't beat shag carpet and strategic foot scuffling.
No one ever became a superhero by thinking small. Well, except for the Atom...

Teaching the actors to actually fly probably cost a million or two at least. The show's real secret is that they're not technically using SFX....

Hi, littlebug.
There's an easier way to quote text than changing the font size. All you have to do is put a ">" at the start of the line you want to quote.
">There's an easier way to quote text"
comes out:

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.
Hi Claire.
I don't think I've seen P-C use so many capital letters at one time even in complaints about his family.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Are there any ratings numbers from last night?

Jumper should be fun, I hope. It's a nice Heinlein-esque adventure story, nothing too complex. I've had issues with some of Gould's other books, but I liked Jumper fine.
Still haven't seen Heros, will try to make time for that tonight.

Plus, all that money they had to spend to sew that guy they cut in half back together!

I'm looking forward to tonight's Eureka episode, which is titled "H.O.U.S.E." (IIRC) and it occurred to me that it would be great if Fargo had only had a Hugh Laurie fixation instead of SMG. Which would explain why the house would go cranky, for sure.
