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.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

9 board time? I probably wouldn't be able to do that, but doing my own rewatch on Friday's and reading y'all's posts might be something I could get behind.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

That was the plan, as long as it works for people.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Which season/ep is Dead in the Water? I ask because I just got the first disc of S1 from Netflix.

Another excellent episode of "Life on Mars" this week. Anyone else see it yet?

Holy crap. Watching the 6 am news, and they're doing a story on ... eh, something not very newsy. Anyhoo, the newcaster is in her office for some reason, and behind her on the wall is...

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.

Andi thinks Peter may be becoming Superman, in essence.

I meant it in more of a metaphorical sense, using Supes for any standard comic book superhero with a wide range of powers like Superman or maybe Wolverine, but not like Batman, who has no special powers other than supremely trained body and mind plus an unlimited budget for useful gadgets. Also not like Jean Grey, who as I understand it has one special power with many applications. All the other Heroes have just the one - to carry out a complex mission they have to work together as we saw with Radioactive Guy, Net Woman, and Matt. As Peter gets his shit together, he will be a host unto himself, and be able to take on tasks which no other single Super will be able to manage.

It also occurrs to me, what if the painting showing him going all asplodey is not showing him going into an uncontrolled, harmful meltdown. What if it works out that he has to do that to control and localize something that would be even worse (or he thinks it is) without his intervention? Oh, yes, getting him all trained up to control himself is a good thing, but now maybe instead of being the bomb that destroys New York, maybe he's the Bomb Squad that protects the Hemisphere - he and New York are just collateral damage, acceptible losses.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

...Happy Place... What?

Dead in the Water is ep 4, season 1, I think. Lemme check. Nope, ep. 3. I think we were planning on Phantom Traveler, which is 4, next week.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Phantom Traveler

LOVE that episode! I'll try to catch that one with y'all.

Whoa! Yay fannish newscaster! Though it occurs to me that the poster could be from that other beach show he was on before SGA. North Beach, maybe?

I'll definitely try to join in for the SPN W-n-P (thanks for the heads-up, Beverly!)

Art Crawl!!!

So, Dead in the Water at 11 pm CST? I can do that -- but that's different than I had understood. (I.e., a marathon starting at 11 -- couldn't do that.)

People who've read the later Dresden File books. Look it's Harry's dog! (They just got recognized by the AKC and are the cover dog on the new AKC Gazette.)
