You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

Buffy ,'Lessons'


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.

But, they really can't get together, because Adama is too principled to get it on with the President.

No Kathy A, BELIEVE that there is hope! I thought that was part of the point of the ep and their last conversation together, that one of the reasons they were fighting and surviving was so they could love and laugh and have relationships and families. I got the impression that their conversation wasn't over, and that Roslin would continue to visit Galactica, and they'd continue their dance, despite Adama having voiced why they could never be.

*must rewatch*

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

My first impression of the Book White Council went like this: "Okay, they'll execute Harry for killing his uncle with magic, but where were they when said uncle was trying to enslave the 17-year-old kid Harry was? Leave a kid to fend for himself against a powerful black wizard, and then threaten to kill him and put him under some kind of Doom probation for defending himself? These guys are arrogant hypocritical bastards. When can we kill them?" I get that their only intention is to enforce the 7 Laws of Magic (which they made up), but if protecting kids from evil wizards, when they're the only ones who reasonably CAN, is not in their charter, then they all need to be replaced with actual human beings.

I'm possibly too invested in the welfare of Book Harry.

You know, I don't even know if the Council even acknowledges that Justin was evil. But I see your point. They're actually worse than corrupt or evil, because they're the good people who hide behind their laws and rules so they don't actually have to do anything to protect those who need protecting.

Have you read Proven Guilty yet?

grrrrrr.

Exactly!

I haven't read past the third book. I'll get back to them, though.

So maybe TV!Morgan's role is to be the grudging ally willing to pit himself with Harry against the inanity that is the Council, but who still enjoys smacking Harry upside the head.

What is even happening?

I don't like anyone other than Baltar and Six talking to imaginary people, and the whole thing was just making all the subtext of the series text for no apparent reason.

I said to Scott, that I wondered if everyone had an imaginary person onboard the Galactica.

I liked the Adama/Roslin stuff, though. That was cute. And the rescue was pretty cool.

They're adorable and the rescue was cool.

Cally doesn't bother me that much. I think she's useless, but she doesn't bother me. What bothers me is when Lee and Kara share scenes in the weeks the story isn't about them, it is as if there has never been anything between them. It's all just so weird.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I think she's useless, but she doesn't bother me.

It bothers me that she's useless, because she wasn't in S1. She used to be an engineer in her own right, not just the Chief's main source of angst.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I'm guessing that Helo is now out of the doghouse with Adama and Tigh, since he's back in the pilots' briefing instead of stuck with the civvies.
