Wesley: Illyria can be...difficult. Testing her might be hard without getting someone seriously hurt. Angel: We'll make Spike do it. Wesley: Good.

'Underneath'


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.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

costuming: Was that outfit (brownish trenchcoat) in the vision something typical of Peter?

Pretty sure he was wearing a brown trenchcoat in the pilot. It's what he's wearing in Isaac's painting of him flying/falling.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Since the original co-starred ASH, I thought I might mention here that yet another UK show is getting remade in the US. Manchild will have director/actor Kevin Smith in a lead role.

What is even happening?

And Suresh is very close to Suraj, which means sun. But, ah, Suresh looks to be synonymous with Indra. Otherwise known as the Destroyer.

Haaaaaaa. Mohin means attractive.

I thought I found Mohinder was synonymous with Indra, earlier. Tricksy Indians. Tricksy Google. Tricksy brain.

eta...

Tricksy Polter-Cow.

This site [link] equates Mohinder with Indra (which makes more sense, soundwise).

It says Suresh = Ruler of the Gods [link]

Art Crawl!!!

Peter was wearing a trenchcoat when he was at Homecoming.

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

Hokay. Here's what's left that I don't remember seeing anyone mention:

  • Why is Claire apologising to Peter in the vision?
  • Why is Simone in the vision? She's the only unpowered (apparently) one there, right? Wait--was Ando there?

I adore Hiro.

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

No! Not another one! When is Hollywood going to learn that (with the exception of a few of us) Americans don't appreciate the irony and subtle humor that pervades most British comedy. Those of us that do get it are much happier watching the originals on BBC America. Even in the Sci-Fi/Fantasy genre, shows like Doctor Who, Red Dwarf and H2G2 would lose much of their impact and quirkiness if you stripped them of their essential Britishness. I don't even want to think about a fully Americanized version of Harry Potter.

Too late. The Office is already a success. Coupling's forgotten.

Trouble is, The Office is pretty much the only one that has made it past a few episodes, so the track record is quite abysmal.

Why is Claire apologising to Peter in the vision?

Maybe because she can't save him, the way he saved her?

Why is Simone in the vision? She's the only unpowered (apparently) one there, right? Wait--was Ando there?

Ando is there with Hiro. Don't forget, Simone is involved (in love?) with Peter, so it actually seems appropriate that she's there.

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

Don't forget, Simone is involved (in love?) with Peter, so it actually seems appropriate that she's there.

Also, she's the daughter of a man who may have had powers as well.
