FYI: Jamie Bamber is guesting on "Ghost Whisperer" tonight.
Sigh.
I suppose I could bear to watch it for him. (Although, I'm going to have to catch his guest-spot on Cold Case on repeat -- as I didn't tape it.)

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.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Wait, wait, wait .... back up to the easter egg .... there are easter eggs? I never think to poke around and find them on my own. Please provide maps for those of us who are directionally impaired.
The one I found is one Beverly mentioned-- on disk 6, after you watch the gag reel, if you are on the special features menu, Dean's eyes turn yellow. If you click on them, you get two unaired title sequences, but they really aren't that interesting. Frankly, seeing Dean with yellow eyes was better.

I confess that I rarely watch special features. Deleted scenes, maybe, but that's about it.
I feel kind of lame about that.

The gag reel on this one was fun, though too short. I don't do commentaries though.

The other one, with Kripke isn't all that exciting either.

The commentary with JP and JA was cute. . . and uninformative.

Maybe Bryan Fuller and Todd Holland (and Caroline Dhavernas and Katie Finneran) have spoiled me, but commentaries are the principal reason I buy or rent DVDs of things I've already seen.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I think they depend a great deal on the people doing the talking. Hugely meta or insightful people, one kind of commentary (e.g. "Objects in Space"); hilarious people teasing one another, a different kind (3/4 of the Farscape commentaries I have heard). Personally I prefer a good mix of "this is how we did that" and "this is why" and some funny stories.
(My gold standard for solo commentary is John Frankenheimer. Groups commentaries are a total crapshoot, as it turns out that people who make their living saying other people's words? Don't necessarily have any coherent words of their own.)

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I really liked the Colin Ferguson-led group commentaries for the Eureka episodes. With a natural (and relaxed) leader, they stayed on topic and were enjoyable.
