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.
Kalshane, you were totally 100% right. Your getting psyched out by my doubt for an episode does not count.
Thanks. I was so happy to have got it right last night.
The Haitian Sensation appears to be able to dampen the effect of her powers. In addition to mindwiping people.
Yeah. We saw that with Matt in the bar, and then later when Mr. Bennet had him on the exam table. Though Matt was eventually able to read Claire's name in Mr. Bennet's mind, which means Haitian guy can only dampen, not completely block.
Which is still scary. If Sylar manages to get loose and de-brain Haitian guy in the process, he'd be completely unstoppable. He'd be able to dampen the powers of others, making it that much easier to kill them and steal their powers, and then he could mind-wipe any trace of him (and possibly even the victim) being there. Yikes.
Wasn't that Mark Hamill's character in Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back?
Cocknocker, actually.
There's a waste of memory space. (The name, not the movie.)
So I'm listening to my iPod on shuffle, and it occurred to me that someone could make a wicked wrong Dean Winchester vid to "My Heart Belongs To Daddy" by Eartha Kitt.
I love being right in the wrong way. It's strangely satisfying, like happily chowing down on some comestible your dinner companion loudly finds revolting.
I've realised that my main disappointment with Torchwood is its failure to illustrate the most interesting part
of the Jack voiceover at the beginning of each episode.
Torchwood. Outside the government, beyond the police. Tracking down alien life on earth, arming the human race against the future. The 21st century is when everything changes, and you've gotta be ready.
I'm just not feeling that last part. I should be feeling it.
That having been said, this week's ep was okay. I'm disappointed that
Tosh's crush was on Owen, and disappointed that Gwen's banging the nasty man.
I'm also weirded out by
Gwen's calm acceptance of her wrongdoing, and that she's not going to stop.
Actually, the more I think about the ep, the more it weirds me out. They're painting
Jack as some hard core oddity, aren't they? Time for his
POV episode.
Jack and his whole
came back wrong thing
is by far the most interesting aspect of the show for me, and they're
still at the "dropping hints" stage.
I'm torn on
Gwen and Owen. I feel like I'm more interested in the pair than I should be and less interested than the show wants me to be.
I have a wacky theory about Niki/Jessica.
One of the things they have shown us is that Syler can somehow absorb powers from the brains of his victims.
What if Jessica and Niki were supposed to be powerful
twins?
It would be interesting if, in a moment of self-preservation on the part of Jessica's brain, it downloaded itself into Niki's brain. (Paging Dr. McCoy!)
And? because it had to fight it's way to the surface (See Jonas Venture, Jr.), plus the trauma of dying and the transfer? It came out wrong.
or even that Jessica was the stronger personality force of the two of them, and that's who Niki "channels" when she needs to be strong. Not What Would Buffy Do, but What Would Jessica Do?
What if Jessica and Niki were supposed to be powerful twins?
It would be interesting if, in a moment of self-preservation on the part of Jessica's brain, it downloaded itself into Niki's brain.
She now has the strength of a grown woman and a little kid!
