Buffy ,'Showtime'
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.
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!
Veronica uses the Sidekick II.
I don't mind product placement if they work out how to do it unstupidly.
Right, you watch Donna Reed or whomever on TVLand, and occasionally she'll stop and mention how much she really likes feeding Campbell's Soup to her family - that was kind of blatant, because I'm remembering her addressing the audience directly. BUT at the same time, any show with school aged kids in it, it would be fairly natural to drop a mention of saving the old Campbell's labels for their school, because I'm sure that 90% of families with school aged kids in the U.S. talk about that. And there are all kinds of things I've seen characters on favorite shows using that I wanted just because I saw someone very cool using it.
Wrestling? Definitely fiction. Plus, didn't they have assorted MacLeods show up just to coincide with the release of a Highlander movie? Arranging a few themed appearances would really make the Wrestling a good fit.
So, for BSG - a bunch of robots? Or perhaps a bunch of Sixes?
iRobot should really sponsor BSG.
Jack: Yeah, that can't be good.
Me: Man, this episode is gonna need a whole lot of hand-waving...
My hands are waving. Bring it on.
Fargo? Never, ever do that.
And I was just thinking how different Fargo was from the Mouthbreather. . . and yet - he should have recognized that whole two key failsafe thing, right?
