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.

could be.

The important thing is how wonderful Carter looked covered in soot. (Actually, in all seriousness, I appreciated that they came out of that room dirty)

Noooooooo! stay away from teenager orientated plots!!!

What, no "Zoe the Android Slayer"?

Or, it could be that he was the one who figured out whatever was going on, and got there first, and didnt' call GD security until it blew up.

Rethinking this a bit. In "Blink" GD Security responded to Stark and not Carter, so Carter must not have any direct authority over them. There may be a CoS at GD, but Stark is still going to be involved in any potential catastrophe or security breach.

Maybe Carter gets called in on all crises at GD to determine whether a criminal act was involved (kind of like an arson investigator) or just in case Stark decides on the spot that someone needs to be redacted.

Well, Stark is a control freak, so maybe he considers himself the CoS?

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

I wouldn't spend a lot of time on this-- it's a larger problem with the premise of the show. A sheriff wouldn't have to deal with a high-security quasi-military installation any more than there's a slayer born in each generation.

kinda like how the most important members and leaders of the crew of the Enterprise were always the ones to go on those dangerous away missions?

And also, I'd think that with his job description, he'd be cleared to nose around S5 (or at least know what was going on in there) Perhaps that issue will be addressed down the road (speaking of which, was he in S5 for that fire?)

Cobb had the appropriate clearance right? Cuz he actually was military, whereas Carter is not? Er, but all those scientists and even Stark are civilians, albeit government employees, which Carter also is. So why doesn't he have access?

What? You trying to tell me there's not a slayer born...

A sheriff wouldn't have to deal with a high-security quasi-military installation any more than there's a slayer born in each generation.

They're calling him "sheriff," but his boss at the U.S. Marshall Service called it a "promotion." That would imply that he's still a federal employee.

I won't even mention the thing about how there's no division of the FBI specially purposed to pursue supernatural phenomena...

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

I won't even mention the thing about how there's no division of the FBI specially purposed to pursue supernatural phenomena...

It's a double secret program...
