'War Stories'


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.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I loved Ava and I really hope she's neither dead nor demonic.

Me too. I suspect she won't be, or at least that it won't be clear, so that Sam has a love interest.

I REALLY hope that Ellen is not the leak, but I am afraid she might be, unless her phone is tapped.

John's last words to Dean do seem in character to me, too. I'm not a John hater, but the man has issues.

Plei, can I tag the first line in your LJ?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Sure! I have no memory of what it was. But sure!

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Whoo! That was a great episode. Although my housemate came in and started asking me questions right at the very end -- so I missed some of what happened in the last scene. I know they found the fiance, all corpsified & gross, and that Sam found Eva's ring, and there was blood everywhere. Am I missing anything else important?

Also, I hadn't watched that promo before, with the Johnny Cash song, and it was really fantastic! Anyone know the name of the song?

eta: Never mind, I just searched the thread for "Johnny Cash" and saw that the song is "God's Gonna Cut You Down." Off to iTunes!

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

I liked the episode, but didn't love it. I did love Ava, though. Better than Jo, so I hope we see more of Ava.

I didn't love that Dean couldn't figure out how to escape from Gordon,

This. I mean, on the roof Dean was wailing on Gordon like whoa. And then Gordon takes Dean down with two shots? Give me a break. I know it's another instance of us being shown that Sam really can take care of himself, but it's starting to get a little heavy-handed.

I'm going to have to go back and rewatch the very beginning as I got back from the laundry room just a little late. Also, the very end. I didn't realize they had found Ava's ring. Hell, I'm just going to rewatch the entire episode, there's always more to be gleaned from a second viewing.

Our wings are not tired.

OK, I watched. Granted I had no backstory to work with, which would have helped. It was quite pretty to watch. But not enough for me to schedule for it. One of these days I will see a DVD set and pick it up and marathon through in a week or two. Until then I will enjoy the discussion and pretty pics posted. Too few hours to add another show in my life.

It is not fair for me to pass judgment on one episode, but the mood was too bleak non-stop for me. I like more light moments to balance it out. Also, sorry, Dean's accent bothers me.

It was interesting enough, particularly visually, that I will put it on my summer viewing list. Continue where you were....

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

OK, I've finally watched "Supernatural." I understand the love.

Also, "Smallville" seems to be back to the sort of cracktasticness I actually enjoy. Mostly just back watching it because of Green Arrow, and the Jr. Justice League that apppears in the promo, but really the "Clark pretends to be Superhero X to protect his identity, wherein the value of X is usually Batman, is pretty much a classic, and was fun to see.
