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.
Laura, it's in "The Daleks' Master Plan". Unfortunately, during the 1970s, the BBC Film Library decided to save space and film and destroyed much of their 1960s episode library. (Sucks to be a Who fan.) "The Daleks' Master Plan" was a 12-part series. The wall-breaking was in part 7. Only parts 2,5, and 10 survive, purely by chance -- copies were found outside the BBC.

In my opinion, if you're catching up on previous Doctors, the Third Doctor (Pertwee) and Second Doctor (Troughton) are more fun than Hartnell anyway.
Grrr. I really wanted to pick up the Season 1 BSG this weekend. Every place that has it in stock is selling at the full list price. Everywhere else (B&N, Target, etc.) is selling for close to $20 less, and is out of stock. WTF?
I "froogled" and man - even with the addition of the mini - that's a short season and kind of pricey.
I'm sure that the cheaper places are out of stock because they are cheaper.
Just watched the last two eps of
Torchwood
and ZOMG is exactly right!
I love my nonsensical gay emoporn sci-fi show! There was hugging and crying and growing! There was gay snogging, and then just in case that wasn't enough, there was more gay snogging! And there was flailing and squeaking from me, in that sort of "oh show, why are you so bad HOLY MOTHER OF GOD do that again!" kind of way. I mean... Jack has a showdown with the DEVIL? I'm sorry, what? And Gwen's kiss raises him from the dead? I laughed and laughed. And then the DOCTOR! Yay!
I am all a-squee.
You know what would have been cool about the near-ending of the ep? Well, okay, the
TARDIS
was well cool. But if Jack had
kissed Gwen before he headed out to fight the big bad,
which meant that when
she kissed him, she was giving back his life force.
Like tucking away in a pocket in case you need it later.
But then the (near-)ending would have made sense!
I have GOT to get my hands on Torchwood. Dammit. Is it being released in the US ever?
I watched some Farscape today, and then the miniseries.
I got all sniffly. My show!
What is David Kemper up to these days, anyway? hmm. IMDB says he just wrote two movies with implausible names (Tyrannosaurus Azteca and Heatstroke), which sounds to me like he's doing the SciFi Saturday night dealie. Interestingly enough, they're both being directed by Andrew Prowse; I wonder if that means they're shooting in Oz...

I really need to stop procrastinating and get more than season one on dvd. a rewatch is in order. especially seasons 2 and 3. the more angst the better!!
No word on when/if
Torchwood
is being released in the US. I pray for BBC-America, who would probably run it relatively uncut.
