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.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Niki slumps down with her back to the mirror in the bedroom and starts talking to Jessica, who is sitting next to her.

wasn't that the folded closet door?

Ain't it cool news announced the BSG renewal early, making all but an official announcement posted at the official seem slightly squirrelly to me. Apologies for posting the same info again!

That's what I thought, too. I didn't realize it was the mirrored door until she stood up to leave.

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

Dresden Files: We don't know that Raskin didn't take her boyfriend's ears and teeth after he died. If that was all that remained to free her, his death would have been a waste if she didn't. I can imagine that she did, and that was the thing that sent her to the loonybin.

(Okay, basically it's sloppy writing, but I can handwave it to my satifaction.)

Is it wrong that my mind is writing not only a fanfic which takes care of this "missing scene", but also supplies the pr0n behind Harry and Heather's sudden lurve? ... Yes.

but didn't she become human after he died? there was a flash of light and she said that it worked. She didn't take his ears after the fact.

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

I rewatched the scene. The closet doors were both closed, so it was one flat surface. Both Niki and Jessica are sitting on the floor with the mirrored doors behind them.

Hm. She said that it worked, but she said that BEFORE he died. If all it took to cure her was the ninth death, without the ritual, she still wouldn't have really been cured before he was actually dead. Even though she turned back human before he died. Does that make sense? Either way, she wasn't cured at the moment when she said she was. The tufts of hair they had collected looked human to me; all curly, nothing like the CGI werewolves, so I assumed it didn't matter when the "signs" were taken - before or after death/changing back to human. She could have freaked out and cut off his ears and dug out his teeth while human, as Harry scrambles away from the crazy former werewolf and locks Heather in the lab and calls the cops, who arrive about the time Raskin totally loses it and has to be restrained and sedated. Since they caught her raving, with teeth and ears in hand, they have their "serial killer" and Harry's off the hook. And no one mentions the fact that Harry let himself out of jail, because of that warrentless-search thing Raskin did at his apartment. (There was no way they got a warrent for that. They had no justification for suspicion at all.)

I like fanfic.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Maybe release comes when the ninth is mortally wounded.

Maybe the same higher being that was assigned to Warren Beatty in Heaven Can Wait was getting a bit ahead of himself here, too.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

So you've seen the first three, and Route 666. Hmm. You're totally made of sterner stuff than me.

I have to admit, the first several episodes had me going "...okay..." rather than flailing wildly. I mean, I liked it well enough, but I wasn't emotionally engaged. The House episode you've cited didn't actually slay me either - although I was more "...aw. Bless!" than formerly.

I mainlined Season 1, and I think it was Faith when I started to grok the Deanlove. And then of course the Wicked Witch one had me aboard the woobietrain pretty sharpish. YMMV - I think that seeing everyone else flail can make one less likely to flail, because there's so much buildup.

(...but, Winchesters! Two generations of profoundly fucked up badass disfunctional woobie manhood! Who are HOT like WOAH! And togethah they fight crime demons!)

Um. Yeah. Anyway.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I continue to maintain that John Winchester is hot like woah, and I hope that his sons will march into Hell to free him, because that would be the best EVER, and he is the badassest and the hottest, and LOVE.
