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.
Okay, I know I bitched about Chase's immortality on Blade. But having Krista turn her mother, and her mother go on a killing rampage? Pretty damned sweet.
However, I'm confused by this pureblood thing. It was really very creepy when they introduced the pureblood girl, having her carried in by that guy. Why is she so young-looking? Is she actually young? Arrested age only makes sense if she was turned at that age. I need a mechanism for reproduction. Surely it can't be as effortless as turning, but it seems without explanation to be reasonably easy to produce more, especially if you're immortal.
And, by immortal did they mean immune to the same things as the Daywalker?
Saucier, racier stories will be aired after the midnight hour, and in a change for the popular channel, may include R-rated material.
Sigh. In some ways it's a pity it's a hoax. This is probably the only way we'd get Torchwood over here in a timely manner.

But, but....I'll be on a plane that night! Oooh, they're so evil.
Wait, Jessica, are you saying you
don't
expect to get a screener 3 weeks in advance anyway?
How am I to get my spoilers, woman??
Well it's not like it's a guarantee...
I'll just have to make sure DH is properly sucking up to the publicist over the next couple months.
But, but....I'll be on a plane that night! Oooh, they're so evil.
Uhm... damn. I'm going to be in Florence that day. (Yes, do please feel sorry for me.) I THINK the hotel has DSL and I'm taking my laptop, but it would be the height of dorkdom to be holed up watching tv on the computer when I could be out doing the proper tourist stuff....
Ah, poor Vonnie. Stuck inside of Florence with the BSG blues again. And those diamond shoes will give you blisters for sure!

My guess, since the movies had discussions of families, fathers, brothers, etc that purebloods reproduce just like humans do, so creepy pureblood girl is actually a young pureblood vampire, though who knows how their aging actually works. Given her behavior it's possible they physicially age very, very slowly but mentally age normally. I also think, since they bother turning people in the first place, that vampire pregnancy is probably extremely rare. If it takes hundreds of years (completely guessing) to create a fully-grown adult vampire, then it would make sense to turn mortals to use as servants, warriors, etc.
Points for quality use of Dylan, there.
