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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

(I don't think promos can be spoilery either. Granted, the online versions may be stretching the definition of "broadcast" but still. Promos are not spoilers!)

If the promo shows something like an major injury, like someone shooting Adama at the end of season 1 of BSG before the ep showing the shooting itself aired, I would consider it a spolier. I would put these promos in the same category, as it does show some of the events that have not happened yet. If you don't want to be spoiled at all, don't watch the promos.

If you want to discuss the particulars of these promos, you would hopefully whitefont them here, to save those who don't want to be spoiled at all.

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

The policy here on promos is that once they are broadcast on US TV, they are fair game for black-fonted discussion. Sorry if you disagree, but the policy has served us well for several years.

And the webisodes have not been aired on US TV. Is there a new policy we should take a look at?

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I've seen all the post-webisode promos broadcast on the Sci-Fi channel. It seemed like half of every commercial break during Dr. Who was dedicated to BSG.

Ok- I was simply trying to help out ChiKat and her request to know if the websiodes are spoilery at all- I would call them spoliery on the extra promo content at the end, which may also be in commecials aring on the sci-fi chanel. Not trying to step on toes here...

Webisodes would be white-fonted. It's the same as it would be for the BBC broadcasts of Doctor Who that some folks may have downloaded somehow.

Not to worry.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

So, I took the plunge and watched the first 3 webisodes. So far, there's nothing so earth shattering (for me) as to spoil, so I will continue to watch. Yay!

Also, I did jump at the end and turn them off before the S3 promos at the end. I can wait on that stuff.

No official word yet on the pick up... and bless that heartland!!!

Although Andy, Jamie and I had big meeting to day talking about season two. It's not so much an "if" as a "how many". We're all on the same page about what worked and what didn't. It was a great debriefing and prep.

I'll let you know as soon as I hear.... one more to go...
