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.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

The what now? I must not have gotten to this one yet. I'm only through "Home" in my S1 watch.

Sorry, P-C. I was talking about Shiban's *snort* illustrious The X-Files career. (And was confused when you mentioned "Home", because I was all, "Home? That's not until season 4!" as TXF also had an episode by that name. A hell of an episode that was, too. Ahhh, Mrs. Peacock.) Shiban's been writing much better MotW eppies on SPN than he did on TXF.

What is even happening?

Hey, I went to an Angel place.

'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"

Will someone explaine the Killer Kitties to me? I think I watched all the X-Files episodes at one time or another, but perhaps hysterical amnesia has blocked it from easy recall.

Yes, most likely I'm asking to be horrified all over again, and not in the good way.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

The episode was called Teso do Bichos. It was about a mummy from South America (Peru?) that was dug up and shipped to the US. (You know, I think it was Boston.) Said mummy had an association with a jaguar spirit.

Totally coincidentally, members of the expedition/scientists working on the mummy started being torn to pieces. Examinations of the crime scenes proved, among other things, that a jaguar could not have got in to do the deed. But housecats would fit nicely!

Yes, housecats possessed by the spirit of an irritated jaguar. THe real funny came when Our Heroes were attacked by same, because the woman who plays Scully is allergic to cats so they basically took a Boxing Nun puppet and covered it with rabbit fur. There is a great outtake in that season's blooper reel where Mulder is boxing with the Furry Boxing Nun.

So. Ridiculous story line, ridiculously implemented. Those were the good old days, when we had no idea the butt genies to come.

Art Crawl!!!

What Lex did you miss?

He was in that blue-light room with a minion and that meteor rock crazed farmer/slave-driver. Then he walks, the power walk of evil down a hallway of cells. There is a greenish tinge now and then and hands reaching out between the bars to Lex - but he just keeps walking, then he goes through the door. What is the door? It's 331.

Then the promo was excellent. Lots of scenes from recent Smallvilles and then Clark, "Lex is creating an army" and scenes of GA, Aquaman (new?), a speedster or possibly MM and then a power walk of the Young Justice League (in their costumes.)

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

It seems like Smallville could save a whole bunch of money on writers if they just made episodes consisting of nothing but power-walks.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

That would be a good idea, Tom. That shot redeemed the whole hour. Almost. Because that episode sucked a lot except for Jimmy and Chloe.

Because that episode sucked a lot except for Jimmy and Chloe.

I just caught the end, because the beginning made it look like A very special Smallville. But "I'm your bro. Not your foe." tickled me.

Me too, Monique. That was great.

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.

The episode was called Teso do Bichos.

I thought I'd seen all the episodes (much to my regret towards the end) but I somehow managed to miss this one. Then again, I also can't remember the Butt Genie either. Repressed memories, maybe?
