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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Ah, thank you, my darling .

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I was thinking about using that as a tag, too, because, really, on that show, he's the one who has to say it. I mean, with the meta and everything. Just too perfect.

As I saw someone say elsewhere, this episode was that rare love letter to the fans that actually got it right. I laughed through almost every minute of it—so much so during the puppet sequence that I hurt myself. Though for some odd reason I was cringing at the Trek spoof.

Boa vs. Python is on at 5PM EST today, for those of you who might have a thing for that David Hewlett guy.

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

I think the problem with the Trek scene was that it was a bit too much like Galaxy Quest, so BTDT.

'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"

On a second rewatch, I noticed that Martin Wood is also playing the director of the 200th episode of Wormhole X-treme....

The Trek sequence was funnier for being very short -- mercifully short, you might even say.

Notice that Vala thought Daniel into the John Chrichton role?

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

What, no love for Scarecrow!Cameron, CowardlyCoffeDrinkingLion!Daniel, and TinMan!Teal'c? :)

"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

CowardlyCoffeeDrinkingLion!Daniel would have been a lot cuter if he didn't have the So Very Bored With It All expression that I've come to associate with Michael Shanks' real-life personality.

I seriously think I'd like him a lot more if I'd never, ever heard a single word from him out of character, in marked contrast to Amanda Tapping, Ben Browder, Chris Judge, and Claudia Black. All of the above inspire greater affection with every glimpse of their real selves.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I just hope if we do get to meet the Furlings, they don't look like Ewoks.

Also, is InvisibleJack canon? It was a new sequence, truely, but it wasn't presented as Marty-ized.

Also want it to be canon for the shower scene. "Nope!"

'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"

I believe Blinvisible!Jack is being presented as more or less canon -- it's something that SG-1 is recounting as more or less fact. Though I'm not sure that Teal'c would ever be making that many puns in character (the corridor sequence), but maybe Carter is sexing it up for Marty?
