'Shindig'
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.
Wouldn't that throw things out of order? I guess since they only ever stop time for a few seconds or so, it wouldn't affect a lot, but...still.
I don't know, but that's the way it worked. I remember in one case, they were in the kitchen of the restaurant, and they peeked out of the door and life was going on, and they had to hurry up because someone was coming.
(I have an original superhero character whose power is to slow time only in relation to himself -- from all other viewpoints he speeds up like the Flash, but from his perspective he is moving completely normally, with a normal amount of strength. But it only lasts for as long as he can concentrate hard enough to keep the power going, and the field isn't big enough to take more than one person with or a small amount of local surroundings, which means he can't, for example, drive a car. He gets around Manhattan on a skateboard....)
In today's miscellaneous science news, Radar Helps Locate Meteorite in Kansas. They make no mention of it glowing green. Lana's parents do still appear to be dead.
There's actually a really interesting book by Nicholson Baker called The Fermata, about a guy who can stop time. The power turns on and off for him until he learns how to do it. For example, for a while, he has to click his ballpoint pen to start and stop time, but that stops working, so he has to write a quadratic equation for a while.
Man. That was an awesome episode of Heroes. It's really the only show on television where I get upset that I don't have more to watch every week.

I saw the headline for that last night and had the exact same thought.
According to the article there was a considerable meteor shower there, about 10,000 years ago. Glaciers didn't make it down that far, so odd rocks tend to stand out way more than they do around places with glacial moraines.
I just skipped 534 posts in this thread. More than in any other thread but Natter. You people are talky meat.
Let me know if I missed anything super important. Except if it has anything to due with this week's Heroes, because I haven't seen that yet.

Dean is very pretty when splattered with blood.
