Nope-- let's take that baby all the way to red.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
John Rogers has a Eureka blog entry today. I started reading it (he talks about HOUSE Rules) but then he made a mention of the setup for next week's episode and I realised I didn't want to be spoiled for it.
Which is kinda funny since I got to read his script for his episode early, and have pried a couple details out of Colin.
But there's only one left. I don't want to rush it.

Ed is built like a brick shithouse. And was scripted as topless in a scene in many happy returns. We shot it once with him in just his briefs but it was "too homoerotic" with the two of us idly chatting with him almost naked. Literally they said it was "too homoerotic" and too early in his character intro to have him that naked.
And until the 11th hour, I was bare-assed in the pilot and made a plea for them to take it out. They did - probably for their own reasons. It was the scene when I'm naked anyway at Bev's.
Taggert, Lupo, Spencer, Allison... wow, ya know, it's definately Stark's turn. The trick is going to be stopping Ed from oiling himself down.

And, you know, don't let failure stop you airing the footage. We'll deal.

But that's the...but...

They were showing your bum in the pilot! Admittedly, your bum has been screencapped on the internet for years, but still.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I know what these words mean and yet...

Huh. Nope. That one doesn't quite scan either.

When we have the second season*, can there pretty please be an episode where nanoids eat everybody's clothes? It would make up for the tragic lack of nakedness this season.
Yes, I know there would suddenly be an outbreak of strategically placed furniture, plants, and props, but even so.
* If I keep saying that, it must come true, right?

I think it means the SciFi execs were terrified when they saw the season finale of Dr. Who and are now overcompensating.

Did you not explain to them that the slashers need but a bit of suggestion and one pivotal scene and they are off? And that all of this slash is FREE PUBLICITY the show?
I actually didn't mind the Jack/Allison in this episode. I thought that it was much subtler. Which, admittedly, isn't saying much. I thought that she was reevaluating her relationship with Stark, but the prospect of Jack leaving made her think about her feeling for him.
My biggest issue in this episode is the complete irrationality of BRAD (and that's how I handwaved them staying in the house -- SARAH didn't kill the pizza guy, BRAD did). Anyway. Brad is an interrogation program, right? So, what is the point of "surrender"? The goal of interrogation is information. And if SARAH was so completely gone, why was BRAD following her primary objective? And why, when faced with "false surrender" was the idea to kill the subjects? Why did Jack and Allison get cold, Fargo and Beverly got hot, and Stark and Henry got nothing?
Okay, I'm done, I think. I loved Jo and Taggart, especially "when I go after your flank, you'll know it"
