Yeah, I got a sweet nostalgic callback to Forever Knight from it, too. I think it's the skyline, more than anything.

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.

Ooh. If you get close enough, pinch him for me. Cutie.
Him cutie. But you know, you cutie, too. Take that as you like.
According to Tanya Huff, the reason Tony's not in the series is so he won't be tied to this show. Therefore, they can make a series out of the Smoke books if they choose to do so.
I've skipped past all the BSG talk, because I'm a week behind and I can't seem to care a whole lot. I mean, I'll watch it tonight, but there's something that I can't quite put my finger on that has made me lose a lot of interest in the show. Ah well, I'll have a 10 month hiatus to find some new enthusiasm.
Dresden continues to surprise me. I'm not exactly drawing little hearts around it yet, but I definitely enjoy the hour each time I watch it. And I have a feeling I'll like the books when I get around to them.
The SPN watch and post was so entertaining to read. I have such SPN on the brain right now. In the last month, I watched the entire season on my own, watched all but two episodes with K, AND watched all but I think four with my mother, who watched the entire season while she was visiting this weekend. The boys are living in my brain. I could have many things to say, but I think I'm just going to point at Plei and nod like a bobblehead.
(Also, someone needs to take the Wincest away from me, because while I don't get behind it as canon, I can't. stop. reading. it. Gah.)
Man, I am talky meat today.
And I killed the thread.
It looked like a screw, but I don't know why that tipped him off. Or maybe it wasn't a screw.
Joe tells me that the Marine realized that someone had taken the coverplate of the door-opening-thingy when they shouldn't have. I assume it's a military sbotage thing because it went over my head too.
I also loved all the post-Kara reactions, especially Bill Adam going through her file. I found Badger entertaining but I had a very hard time understanding him much of the time. I felt like I needed to get everyword if he was going to be speaking in metaphors and riddles and so on.
Oh, I totally saw the Lee/Sam slash possibilities. Other than that, I have to say that I am so confused about Lee these days. His scenes with Sam were great but it's hard to see where all this other stuff is coming from. I mean, I know because they are telling us, sort of, but it doesn't feel very organic.
I only saw the first five minutes of the last BSG, but I saw the Sam/Lee slash too. (Hubba.)
Not quite dead. I'm with you on the fic-reading, but I do try to hold the line at RPS or Wincest. I've read stuff I thought arose from canon and character, well-written stuff, but I just can't go there in canon.
Sibling incest, same sex or not, is a squick for me, and I don't have any particular desire to "get over it," as I've seen recommended. Parent/child is just--there's an abyss there that is truly awful for me, and I can't read that at all, it makes me physically ill. I can't divorce reality from incest, and so I seem to be reading-handicapped in that way.
Still, there's lots and lots of lovely gen, which is actually my favorite Winfic. The relationship between the boys (and their dad) is intricate and simple and complicated all at the same time, enough that just exploring it is more than adequate for me. Adding sex, while I see how it might arise from the complicated and intense emotion, seems an unnecessary strata on an already emotionally dense and layered relationship.
But that's just me. Meanwhile, I'm really trying hard NOT to read BSG spoilers, rocking and whining a bit waiting for Heroes, and restraining the bounce and squee at new SPN tomorrow night.

WTF? Why in the hell should anyone be obligated to get over a squick? Particularly one that's also a cultural taboo? Fandom, I swear to god...

Bev is me. Incest just squicks me in a HUGE way.
