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.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Poor Pizza Dude! But the job in Eureka probably comes with hazard pay.

I am with Cashmere on quite willing to accept a little inconsistency in return for an overall fun show.

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

Wasn't there shirtless Jack in the pilot?

And the reason we don't get shirtless Stark is because we can't handle it. It's for our own protection.

very glad to get out of a bottle episode

I learned something new in TV speak! I think it's funny that they had Jack resorting to "the bottle" in a bottle episode.

Heh, I remember that term from reading about various Trek series - a bottle show for them was one where they never left the ship (or DS9), and didn't really intereact with anyone outside of the ship (IOW, no pricey space effects or limited use sets).

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

There was also butt-naked Spencer in the crop circle. The other question, I guess, is when else have all these women been removing their tops, because I really don't remember it.

Art Crawl!!!

Perhaps they can build up to it -- much like they seem to be doing for shirtless Linc on Prison Break. You know, have scenes where his tie is loosened. . . followed by scenes with no tie and an open collar. . . then scenes where his shirt is unbuttoned. . .etc.

A gradual process to habituate the audience.

Three women, two disrobing scenes, IIRC. You had Allison running around in her skivvies for quite a while in Purple Haze.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Well, this is ridiculous.

Speaking of Allison, I hope to look that good running around in skivvies at ~39!

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

You know, have scenes where his tie is loosened. . . followed by scenes with no tie and an open collar. . . then scenes where his shirt is unbuttoned. . .etc.

This is a nice thing, otherwise we'd be blinded by the hot.

I like that Eureka feels real. (Which sounds like a very strange thing to say about a sci-fi show, but there you are.) I like that they keep their clothes on. Most of the people I know aren't the type to just get naked, and the people in Eureka seem like "real" people to me. (People look good in clothes too...)
