Thou shalt not swim against the currents of time.
So can you jump forward in time, so long as you don't come back?
(I've worked as a regulator for too long, haven't I?)
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

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.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Either that, or you're a natural-born wizard.
Thanks for the backgrounding, Kalshane. I'm sure it's a tough job to convert a well-established book series/universe into a TV medium without making some serious changes. As a person who knows nothing about the original, I was impressed by how well the pilot sketched in a lot of background skillfully without sounding like As You Know, Harry, and left room for future explanation/exploration.
Note to self: if someone ever tosses you something called a Doom Box, it's probably a bad idea to catch it.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
So can you jump forward in time, so long as you don't come back?
My guess would be that's okay. Time travel has only been mentioned in the books in passing, for the most part (There's been hints that a particular character may be capable of it). But going back in time is presented as being really, really--could unravel the fabric of the universe--bad.

Did anyone see the "meet a new Hero" thingie NBC was supposed to do at 8:30? I turned on the TV right at 8:30 but all I got was a particularly annoying Deal or No Deal.

I caught the last 10-15 seconds by accident and got annoyed that my tv guide was off at first. I'd read the graphic thing online, so nothing I didn't know. But who was the guest star?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Christopher Eccleston, right?
