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.

What is even happening?

I'm surprised DB is that tall. I don't doubt it. I just never noticed it. I think I notice height less when a man has a large build. Even when he's really slim, he has that beefy body type.

My favorite set of lies about a performer's age, were those surrounding James Marsters. I saw dates as late as 1972! Dude, there are post-pubescent pictures of you from what is Clearly the 1970s. You were an adult on Northern Exposure in the early 90s. We know, okay?

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

Apropos of nothing, but AD is smokin' hot in that picture.

he totally was. the following year i got close enough to talk directly into his ear because it was so loud in the venue. i think he's better to look at in person than he is on tv. same goes for Mark Lutz.

We know, okay?

ha! i remember people digging up yearbook photos for proof. oh the hair...

I would be a wibbly pile of guh.

Didn't he have a ridiculous 'fro?

Marsters was on Northern Exposure? Hah, I never knew that.

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

JAR is taller than both AD and DB. Him and I only talked sitting down, so I can't make a more precise estimate.

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

Sci-Fi is actually playing with the airing order. (Go figure.) I think we're getting Episode 3 first, then Episode 4 or 5, then Episode 1 "Storm Front". Though aside from the pilot (which Sci-Fi requested be chopped down from 2 hours to 1) they're not going to follow the plotlines from the books. Robert Wolfe's explanation is such:

Oh, that’s fine. I meant “fresh” in the sense of a firm “picture” of Harry Dresden in my head. In my mind, he was a redhead, but I don’t know where I got that.

It bugs a bit, but in the end I'd rather have the right actors for the part than someone who perfectly embodies the physical features of the character.

Oh, absolutely. But it still bugs :)

When does Dresden Files start? My Tivo's not showing it in the listings.

On the 21st. It’s in my tivo listings?

Vortex, I'm still exploring the capabilities of my TiVo. Do you have to have anything special to set the programming remotely?

i think he's better to look at in person than he is on tv. same goes for Mark Lutz.

I definitely agree with regard to Denisof, though Lutz is about the same on or off camera to me. But AD strikes me as somewhat physically... icky whenever I see him on a show, as opposed to the smoking hotness in person.

What's the source of the on-screen ick for you, Matt, do you know?

Sail, I'm not Vortex, but Tivo has online scheduling through their website. You sign up for an account on their page (free), and I think you have to have your Tivo hooked up to broadband, but I may be incorrect about that. You can search for programs and set them to be recorded from the site, and get a confirmation email when it's uploaded to the Tivo.
