Jessica, while there will likely be stuff you won't get, I'm fair certain they'll have plenty of jokes for those knowledgable enough to get that one.
You have the emotional maturity of a blueberry scone.

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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
By the way, I love your tag, WindSparrow. (For the record: Slightly psychic tag: Soon witty text will appear here, just to amuse you. Any second now. Really. I mean it.)
Thanks, Calli. I've been waiting for weeks for someone, anyone, to appreciate that. I made it up all by myself.
Woo! And, I might add, Hoo! I actually got to see Eureka as it aired tonight. And got paid for it. I love my job! Alas, tv-watching is not my sole duty. Still, it was great to see the show at the same time as everyone else in this time zone.

Art Crawl!!!
That is cool.
Fun episode.
I kind of thought that the entrance to room 5 looked like a Stargate.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Wee little tiny Stargate. Big huge event horizon. It's Furling technology. They call it the Pocketgate (it sounds better translated).
It's possible that I'm a bit tired.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Genregate.
That was fun.

So the Artifact is... Green rocks. Right?

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

They found them in a field in Kansas.

Plus, it's brilliantly shot and scored with some of the most awesome '70's music ever recorded.
A list of the music used in the original BBC episodes is here. I heard an interview with Philip Glenister (also on the BBC site, I think), where he mentions that they got special permission to use "Live and Let Die" in the second ep. McCartney doesn't normally license his stuff for things like that but he liked what they were doing so much, he allowed it. Was that piece used in the US version?
Glad to hear LoM is doing so well in the States. It was some of the best telly I saw in ages.

Loved the episode, but not enough Jo. Loved her painting landscapes at the sheriff's office, although I would have thought a combat scene would be more her style.
