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 watched some Farscape today, and then the miniseries.
I got all sniffly. My show!
I received the Starburst DVDs I was missing for Christmas, so I now have the entire series on DVD. So I've been wallowing in Farscape the past two weeks. John Crichton in black leather, come to mama! I just finished "John Quixote" (season 4, episode 7), which I really can't warm up to. But the next set includes the return to Earth, and "Merry Frelling Christmas!", and Rygel getting hooked on chocolate, and young John being deflowered by Chiana, so there are good times ahead.
I'm hoping now that Ben Browder and Claudia Black have some free time coming up they might do a Starburst version of the mini-series, so we can have that come out with a commentary track. The version that's out now is pretty bare bones when it comes to extras.
Jumping over a lot of posts. I just watched my Netflix DVD's of the final episodes of season 2 of Battlestar G. Does anyone know when the season 3 DVD's will be out? I'm so jonesing now I moved the miniseries and season 1 to the top of my queue!
There has been no announcement made except that they say that they'll be doing a full-season release rather than two half season releases.
LOVE the FK. My friend Amy and I used to watch it on Tuesday nights on CBS's "Crimetime after Primetime" We loved that and Silk Stalkings.
I've said it before, for exactly this, but boyohboy do I heart Vortex.
FK might have been my first genre (shut up, take it to b'cracy, this is how we use 'genre' here.) love. And Crimetime after Primetime was so much fun.
Kate P speaks for me wrt
Torchwood.
Yes.
I have never been so totally reduced to flailing squeadom by any show.
You've been talking about FK?! I totally missed that.
I lurved that show with the heat of a thousand moons. On a recent rewatch, I was surprised at how well it held up...what with its inrepentant 80sness...the characters and situations were so watchable and emotionally engaged in ways that not many shows of its time achieved.
Sigh.
FK might have been my first genre (shut up, take it to b'cracy, this is how we use 'genre' here.)
you know, that whole genre discussion was a bit unsettling to me. Mostly because the HEADER for "Boxed Set", which is supposedly the genre thread, includes reference to "Due South", which does not come anywhere near the supposed definition of genre. Of course, the whole discussion had come and gone by the time I read it, so I never got to say it.
due South has ghosts. And magic snow.
due South has ghosts. And magic snow.
but are they random episode elements or an essential part of the show? (edited for clarity)
