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.

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

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.

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.

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.

Art Crawl!!!

So, for BSG - a bunch of robots? Or perhaps a bunch of Sixes?

iRobot should really sponsor BSG.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Jack: Yeah, that can't be good.

Me: Man, this episode is gonna need a whole lot of hand-waving...

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

My hands are waving. Bring it on.

Fargo? Never, ever do that.

Art Crawl!!!

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?

I thought Wargames was de rigeur viewing for those of the nerd persuasion.

The town has been there a lot longer than the weapon, right? Why would anyone, especially a bunch of folks who are really, really smart, put it right under Main Street?
