I've got 45 minutes to go. I'll opt not to spoil.
Thanks, Colin.

'Serenity'
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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Thanks for dropping by, Colin!

Conversation with my mom about, oh, an hour and forty minutes go. Having not spoken to her in weeks because she was out of town.
Mom: Hey, what was that show you told me to watch?
Me: Eureka?
Mom: Yes! I really liked that! But then when I got back home I couldn't remember when it was on. I thought it was on the weekend?
Me: Er, no. It's actually on tonight in... well, about 10 minutes.
Mom: Oh, really? [9 minute recap of week-long trip] and I see Eureka's starting now so talktoyoulaterkthxbye!
So then I had dinner since my own mother didn't want to talk to me. Sob.
But now I've eaten so I'll go watch it myself. That'll show her.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Folks, there is no need to whitefont stuff that's going on as the episode airs. It confuses ita no end. The only stuff that should be white-fonted are things that haven't aired in the US yet.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Tivo
The SciFi rep at Comic Con (can't remember whether it was BSG or SG) were very insistent that people not Tivo things, because it affects the ratings. I can't imagine how -- if a Tivo is recording the first broadcast, how is that interpreted by a Nielson box any differently than a human watching? -- but that's what they said.
This show continues to be charming as hell, even when the plots are a little muddled. It felt like they couldn't quite find the story until about halfway through. But still, love the Carter/Jo dynamic. All the character stuff was good this week.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Anyone know what movie they had Jo wathcing at the end? I was wildly guessing something like Saving Private Ryan, but I've never seen SPR so I couldn't know for sure.

Jon, it didn't look like SPR. I thought it was just generic documentary footage about modern special forces ops.

I'll be somewhat disappointed if it was generic footage, but maybe there were budget constraints.
Hey DX -- what's the tagline from?

A lot of that sort of thing is PD, so that would be my guess.

I got it from a guy over on a baseball blog. I have no idea if it was an original or he he swiped it from someone else.
