Yeah, Tuesdays are very busy, particularly at 9.
No, no, no, sir. No more chick pit for you. Come on.

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.

The more I think about it the better I feel about Eureka coming back as a 13 episode summer series. It won't have to compete with regular season programming on the major networks and can pick up people bored with summer re-runs, much like Monk did. How cool would it be if there were eventually cross-over viewings on the major network parent?
Keeping fingers crossed that the DP, LP and 8 day shooting schedule work out.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm so glad CBS has been streaming The Unit on their website.

BSG viewers, for someone watching the series for the first time on DVD, is there any reason NOT to skip to the longer version of PEGASUS in the 2.5 set over the broadcast version in 2.0?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
The Unit! That's the other thing I haven't been watching this season. I should fix that.
Eureka being on Tuesday is a problem for me because I'm so used to my SciFi shows being on only on Fridays that I have a Pavlovian "don't have to go to work tomorrow!" reaction to watching them. But I do have to go to work after watching Eureka. It's quite unfair.

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.

Not that I can think of. The extended version is all additional and longer scenes, AFAICR, so there's nothing in the shorter version that wouldn't be in the longer. I watched both because the 2.5 box set wasn't out yet when GF and I got to the end of 2.0.

Now tagless for your comfort.

DAMMIT. If I had known this, I'd have made DH watch the Unit on the laptop, I could have recorded VM and watched Eureka at 9 instead of the craptastic (and cut-off) midnight viewing.
This is what I get for not consulting the buffistas ahead of time. When will I learn?

They're streaming much of their shows--that's how I've been catching CSI too.

Clearly something should be done about that.
Yay for the good ratings trend news, and I hope everyone who should come back does.
And in more shallow show talk - I loved Beverly's dress again (I guess I like that stlye, because it was almost the same as the one from two eps ago that I liked), and I loved Allison's dress when she was pregnant - such a pretty dress. Kudos to the costume department; I don't usually notice enough to comment.

I don't think that there's any reason to watch the shorter Pegasus when you've got the longer one.
