You're a bloody puppet! You're a wee little puppet man!

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.

"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

What's sad is that it's a fairly good likeness down to mid-nose, and then turns into an Alfred Hitchcock figurine.

They're going to make a Sheppard figure that you can use to spear olives, aren't they?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Poor Hewlett. It's the smile that's most of the problem. Who the hell made a McKay action figure that was smiling?

The best part about The Stand was the opening song and pullback.

Don't fear the reaper...

It's the smile that's most of the problem.

Yeah, the lower half of his face is a little too Wallace and Gromit.

You mean in terms of reordering the episodes?

Got it in one. =)

I've been a big proponent over on the "official" SciFi board for Eureka of watching the episodes in the original intended order. I've even gone so far as to set up a playlist in iTunes with them ordered properly and done a marathon a couple of times. Even with the edits for the reordering it holds up well. It certainly clears up the progression of several of the relationships within the larger story. I would love to see a "director's cut" of the season when they release it on DVD. The whole reordering debacle reminds me a bit of Firefly and of Terry Gilliam's "Brazil".

The Rodney figure thing looks like Bruce Willis to me.

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.

Finally caught up on the last 3 Dr. Who's.

Enjoyed the Impossible Planet two-parter thingy. Didn't like "Love and Monsters" at all, and I normally enjoy outsider perspective episodes. But Elton just annoyed the crap out of me.

I found myself finding other things to do when he was talking into the camera or pointlessly dancing around for 10 minutes, and I'm not normally one to do other things when I'm watching an episode I haven't seen before.

I kind of have a little thing for ELO, so I enjoyed the dancing around bit. Hee.

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