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.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Jane Espensen went over to Gallactica so her script will be taken over by one of the other writers. It was what she was waiting for, they just started up their writer's room earlier than expected. Just so you know.

That sucks. I don't watch BSG, and I think JE could do some fabulous stuff with Eureka.

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

Ghosts aren't good for car batteries, I guess?

I guess ghost dust mucks up carburetors pretty well.

Okay, the Gap ad? Made we want to spork my eyes out.

Let me guess. She's a ghost?

So far, unless they come up with an all dancing, all singing finale, I'm a tad underwhelmed by this episode. I'll leave it up to the experts to find the flail for me.

It is kind of fun seeing Tricia Helfer in not-Six mode.

It was interesting. You're so used to the sexed up Six, that seeing just a more-or-less ordinary Molly is a bit of a disconnect.

Haley Joel, hee! Dean, Dean, Dean.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I have to confess, I spent the whole episode wondering whether Tricia Helfer in 2-inch heels would turn out to be taller than Dean. Answer: probably, but they blocked it carefully enough that the direct evidence is paltry.

Overall, a swirling vortex of earnest dismay, that not even Dean's nonplussed wisecracks could overcome. Although "smells like old lady" was a damned good line.
