And you'd think that Fargo would know better than to just TURN ON THE STRANGE MACHINE he finds in the bowels of Globotech.
So far, I haven't seen any limits to Fargo's lack of common sense.

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.

Could explain the Office Space solution to his "own office". They'll take his Swingline if he doesn't watch it.
The kiss was adorable. Jo=teh HOTTT.

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.
I did like that the speech Thatcher gave included what we thought was just nonsensical babble. I don't like dementia issues being played for a joke.
Most of what Thatcher said sounded to me as though he was talking to himself in code or mnemonics. His babbling came across as stuck in his own little world, and not bothering to explain himself to those not inside it, rather than irrational, feverish babbling.
I rather liked the ep. but think Fargo needs to live in a group home. Jack kissing Eugenia was adorable, much better than the good luck kiss. And I loves me some old geeks, I'd leave Daniel in a heartbeat for 'em.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Fargo has now officially caused enough mayhem that when I look at Neil, he's Fargo, and no longer The Mouthbreather. And The Mouthbreather was a difficult role to shake, yo.
Jo in a dress = hot. Joss in a dress with a gun in her garter = HOTTT.

Fargo turning on the death machine was actually based on Andy - our Exec Producer. He wrote it because he can't pass by a button, switch, or knob without pushing, flipping, or turning it.
It was fun to watch Set Dec and Props drop everything and watch him very closely every time he passed through a set we were shooting on.

Hahahaha, OK, I was really sleepy when I wrote that, and now I have this mental image I can't get rid of.

Oh, and definately not "Battlestar" dark. We'd have to keep the humour of the show or I think we do ourselves a big disservice. I think they want to bring some darker tones into the show "as is". And bring in a more serial element.
I can definitely see some room for dark (especially given the evil shrink lady's machinations and sooper sekrit Level 5) without going to pitch black. By way of example, Darin Morgan's contributions to the X-Files were great at combining funny with dark (even, as in Small Potatoes, when he was only involved as an actor).

All is well that ends in pizza.
I thought Antony Holland did a very good job playing the babbling Dr. Thatcher and restored Dr. Thatcher.
I get the idea that although the second Nobel to Pauling unhinged Dr. Thatcher, it took a few years for the actual babbling to set in.

I'm a little OCD myself so I can understand the urge.
