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.
I actually haven't seen the snipped BBCA version, but for reason, I'm more upset about change in the songs (apparently, they couldn't afford the licensing fees for some of the better-known songs for the airing on stateside, so several songs were switched/substituted with something else) than the cuts in the episodes themselves. I think it's because the music is such a vital part of the show and so seamlessly integrated in the unedited version.
I may TiVo the marathon on Sunday and see how much they are changed. Hmmm.

Okay, now I *really* have to see the UK versions, because, dayum. The BBCA soundtrack rocks my world, and I'd been boggling over their ability to afford it. If there's more, I must have it.
I thought I read somewhere that the On Demand version is the complete BBC one, not the cutup version shown on BBCA. I'll have to look at the run time when I get home to be sure, though.
Kathy, if you would record that and any others, I would love you for it.
part of the ongoing arc is Sam trying to go home.
I haven't seen the show, but reading that I wonder if the
Quantum Leap allusion was intentional.
(White-fonted because it partially references the white-fonted part of the initial post.)

Sure! I'm also taping ShakespeaRe-told, if you're interested in borrowing that after the last one is broadcast (in two weeks).
I doubt it. I think it's just that
every show must now have a character named Sam. It's a new law.
Dana, well, I was just looking at it from the angles of one of theories being he's
leapt into another person's body in the past
and the overarching plot is the same as
Quantum Leap's.
Just seemed an amusing coincidence, which is why I wondered if it was intentional.
I don't think I've actually heard that theory, not that I've read a lot of meta. I discovered, after watching a few episodes, that my theory was
that he was both in a coma in 2006 and experiencing the events of 1973.
