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.

Art Crawl!!!

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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

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.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Kate P speaks for me wrt Torchwood. Yes.

I have never been so totally reduced to flailing squeadom by any show.

Compassionately intolerant

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.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

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.

but are they random episode elements or an essential part of the show? (edited for clarity)

His father shows up pretty damn often, and in later seasons, lives in a closet in Fraser's office.

ETA: And is dead at the time.

thanks for the clarification. I was thinking "okay, his father visits, so?"
