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.

His hair was nuts - loved the scooter.
Rose was the most colorful thing in 1950s London.
Though the fact that she literally waved her hand and said "Whatever" while explaining it almost redeemed the whole thing.
Right? That was hilarious.
Still missing the first season where time didn't speed by so fast, causing us to miss all the wonderful steps between A and B.
This is how I've been feeling, too. Although, I'd include the second season in the first part of it - I didn't have that whiplash feeling until this season. (Well, except for the finale of S2, of course, but that was on purpose)
The timing of the base ship blowing up was my eyeroll moment of the ep. I really like Sharon more and more, and I am so curious about what will happen when she finds out that they lied ot her about Hera. I liked Laura's disdainful, "That's convenient," to Adama when he said he wasn't going to pursue anything... and then she just sort of accepted the idea of, "Yup. And?"
I thought Boomer (Athena, whatever; she'll always be Boomer to me) getting magically saved was pretty lame. Though the fact that she literally waved her hand and said "Whatever" while explaining it almost redeemed the whole thing.
That was pretty awesome.
I was thinking that they'd just give her shots once a week or whatever. You know, like many other chronic diseases, she'd just live with it.
Yep, that's what I thought they could do, too.
I thought Boomer (Athena, whatever; she'll always be Boomer to me) getting magically saved was pretty lame. Though the fact that she literally waved her hand and said "Whatever" while explaining it almost redeemed the whole thing.
Yes on both counts.
I thought D'eanna torturing Baltar was going to make this a better ep than it was. Oh well.
FWIW, I thought Lawless was having quite a lot of fun.
I guess Athena has become a Real BoyGirl.
Oh, but that reminds me -- I think it's cool that New!Sharon's callsign is the name of TOS Adama's daughter. It hasn't been mentioned in the podcasts, but I assume it's deliberate.
I thought Boomer (Athena, whatever; she'll always be Boomer to me) getting magically saved was pretty lame. Though the fact that she literally waved her hand and said "Whatever" while explaining it almost redeemed the whole thing.Me too, but then I wondered if they were lying to her, and she is infected. I don't know why, except that it seemed so easy.
For some reason, I think that this was a very fast-working virus and that she would have been showing signs of it fairly quickly. I could be wrong. (What made me think this? Possibly because that Cylon mission went to the Lion's Head Nebula and it seemed like their first reports back were the ones where everyone was sick.)
Do viruses live in space?
Viruses encapsulate, and I believe it's been proven that yes, they can survive vacuum in some circumstances. They're very simple, and I know it gets regularly argued as to whether they're 'living' in the sense that monkeys and mushrooms are.
