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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

The ideae that Jack might actually be Cam's father gives me the willies, not sure why.

CoffeeDrinkingLion!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 thought the Bored Now expression was hilarious, considering I was expecting a Confused!Daniel expression. Daniel being Bored is funny to me because it's so far from the Daniel of ten years ago who was agog at everything. He's grown up and cahnged, and as long as I can keep from thinking about Michael Shanks, I enjoy him. This dissonance is painful and may be why I mostly stopped watching.

Our wings are not tired.

Just finished watching the special and 200. Just too many great moments to recount them. At first I thought it wouldn't hold up through the years on rewatch. Then I decided there will be some bit that I won't remember that will delightfully surprise me on rewatch. I judge an episode in part on how it holds up over time and I think this will work in future viewings.

Now to round up my family to watch the Eureka we missed.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.

I don't generally watch SG1, but the 200 ep was hilarious.

I thought it was really funny how Daniel was John Crichton, but it made sense since it's all Vala & Daniel all the time in the few eps I've seen. I don't actually like Daniel, which is mostly why I don't watch SG.

Yes. Also, since I taped it, I think we need to schedule a simultaneous watch-and-chat.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Boa vs. Python is great fun. I really enjoyed it. Jaime Bergman, David Boreanaz's wife (who was in "Time Bomb"), is in it, too.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Ben Browder looks amazing for being almost 44 years old, but not in a way that makes me think he's a decade younger.

This was the thing I pointed out. Dude could hide dimes in his forehead lines. In a good way, but, no. Not 35.

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.

Ben Browder looks amazing for being almost 44 years old,

It's comforting to know someone on the Sci-Fi channel is older than me.

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.

Debet, we could take turns with it, or something. Or both use it, and proclaim our joint sensitive intelligence. (FTR: "Never underestimate your audience. They're generally sensitive, intelligent people who respond positively to quality entertainment."- Cameron Mitchell, SG-1)

Woe to the fucking wicked.

And my satellite feed got totally ferwonked, so I'll have to Netflix it after all. Got to see Snakes on a Plane, but not snakes on a Hewlett. I was robbed!
