Boxed Set, Vol. III: "That Can't Be Good..."

Closed Film and TV threads

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.

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

The second one ("Amanda's") only lasted for 6 episodes in 1983.

With Bea Arthur in for John Cleese. Ponder that one for a second.

I recall hearing that way back before the series changed considerably (i.e. during development), CHEERS was supposed to be an attempt at doing FAWLTY TOWERS. But I may be conflating the other failed attempts with Cleese's actual appearence(s?) on CHEERS.

All is well that ends in pizza.

With Bea Arthur in for John Cleese. Ponder that one for a second.

Actually that was the one where they wrote out Basil. Bea Arthur was supposed to be Polly.

Head still spins.

More so, actually. I could see her doing a distaff Basil type. She'd also make a good Sybil, but Polly? Does not compute.

Yes I have! And you know who continues to be blindingly hot! And Rodney continues to be the princess he has to rescue, which always pleases me.

Right? With the arms? I love the arms.

Also, Rodney? He loves Batman. Batman is his hero. Will you write me an AU where Rodney is a very grumpy Batman and John is his Dick? You know, after Amish!Rodney.

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

With the arms, and the slouch, and the sunglasses, and the SLOUCHING.

And an AU where Rodney is Batman is making my brain hurt. Oh god. I'm trying to map John and Rodney on DC characters and eventually my coworkers will want to know why I'm crying with laughter.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

John would make a good Blue Beetle.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

You just know, when Ronon was telling the story about his superhero, Rodney was thinking "Batman could rip people's entrails out if he wanted to."

Seriously, I bet there's a fic in there. John is a Superman-type, Rodney's a Batman-type. They could have a whole debate! And then sex.

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

Two thread nanny points--lots of general TV discussion. Not the place.

Also, I ended up reading SGA spoilers because I thought it was a Torchwood discussion--make sure you indicate which shows you're talking about.
