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.

What is even happening?

Oddly enough, it smells like the Dominican Republic, which is a dead ringer for Hispaniola.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Oh, I finally caught up with the latest Dr. Who, and I gotta say, the Doctor's duck's ass is cracking me up to no small end.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

It's a pretty big shock going from how Tennant presented himself in "The Girl in the Fireplace" to a spastic Buddy Holly lookalike.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

Very much so.

Aww, now I want to watch TGitF again.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Oh! I was thinking of something that bothered me from the last Doctor Who. If VCRs hadn't been invented yet, where the hell did he get a tape? Although the Betamax joke was funny.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Vortex, he stopped by the TARDIS, so I assumed he got the video tape from a stash there.

Oh, I didn't remember the TARDIS stop. I feel better now.

"Would you mind not farting while I'm saving the world?" - Doctor Who

I want to know how Glasses Guy's organization can find these people, and what that has to do with Mohinder's father's research. I also really hoping that Glasses Guy's organization is NOT an evil conspiracy, because I am so sick of those.

What I'm getting is that they are a government organization or private foundation monitoring emerging genetic changes, but they do not have a reliable way of finding subjects. Shuresh did not work for them so they were covertly monitoring his work on the search algorithm.

The indicators are certainly mixed as to whether HRG's organization is good or evil. It seems that he lives in that moral grey area that most spooks inhabit where the end justifies the means. The fact that he went to the trouble of getting Issac clean in the first place hints that he is one of the good guys. He's not above plunging him back into addiction though if the situation is desparate enough.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Rant against sci-fi cliches.

That guy is no fun at all. I'd like to see what his perfect world of SF looks like.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Okay, first example in, and he's already wrong. Spock never wanted to be human.
