Buffy ,'Never Leave Me'


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.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm really sure Veronica herself doesn't have one.

I've seen her flip open her phone to a qwerty keyboard and send a lot of texts. Although I'm sure other phones may flip open, this seems very Sidekickish to me.

I've just blocked out the wrestling. It's too disturbing for me to realize that Scifi is running it, even if it's to keep the lights spaceships on.

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

See I recall a Treo/Blackberry sort of a setup, not the slidey thing that Sidekicks do.

If I were a better VM fan I could remember an episode in which it was used and then look up the screencaps.

Wait..like the season finale!

Sidekick, huh? I'm laughing at myself because I can't remember having seen anyone use it as a phone in real life. They all have smaller phones and use Sidekicks for messaging and web stuff.

If I only had a brain...

Huh. I've never seen one used as a phone either. Go fig.

Me: wrong.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Didn't they have a sidekick in the first season and then switch to a treo? Or am I on crack?

Oh, I'm not saying it's not a Sidekick. Just that I officially don't know what it one'd look like on the ear, because that's alien usage to me. And I'm way too lazy to scroll through more pics.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Definitely a Sidekick in that screencap. Though I also can't remember ever having seen one used as a phone before (without a headset).

On the OC, they made a HUGE deal over how it was a T-MOBILE SIDEKICK, THE BEST MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS DEVICE EVAR, so there was no mistaking it.

It was like only a Sidekick would enable them to fulfil the plot-demanded actions, and somehow a Treo just wouldn't have cut it. Lamer than the F150, because it kept coming up over and over. There was even packaging, if I recall correctly.

Well, you know, when even someone as old and uncool as Sandy Cohen recognizes the complete and utter awesomeness of the T-MOBILE SIDEKICK, you gotta give it props. And it's so easy to use, right out of the box!

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

Veronica uses the Sidekick II.
